Global Combat Support Sys - Army

Abstract

GCSS-Army Increment 1 provides critical Army sustainment support to the soldier with a seamless flow of timely, accurate, accessible, and secure information management that gives combat forces a decisive edge and is essential for combat readiness. The GCSS-Army approved Capability Development Document (CDD) and Capability Production Document (CPD) require an enterprise approach to replace current logistics and maintenance Standard Army Management Information Systems (STAMIS) to include supply, maintenance, ammunition and property book. GCSS-Army implements best business practices to streamline supply, accountability, maintenance, distribution, and reporting procedures in support of the future force transition path of The Army Campaign Plan. GCSS-Army is financially compliant and is a key component for the Army Enterprise Strategy to be financially auditable. FY 2023 RDT&E funds for ERP Modernization will continue to support EBS-C efforts until the efforts transition to EBS-C program in FY 2024. The FY 2024 funds in the GCSS-Army Increment 1 Research Development Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) line are for building the software solution for disconnected supply, maintenance and accountability, and Store and Forward capability. The Army requires a disconnected operations architecture for GCSS-Army to support ground mission. Currently the Army has battlefield gaps without network connectivity: inability to maintain or regenerate combat power, order/process spare parts, track battle losses, or conduct maintenance. The disconnected operations architecture will alleviate these problems when there are disruptions in communications or cyber-attacks. The FY 2024 funding also supports critical change requests in each fiscal year, coming from the warfighter and prioritized by the Combat Developer, for the baseline system. Implementation of SCRs enhance capability support and effectiveness by synchronizing system data and utilizing enterprise interface tools to eliminate input errors. Advanced Manufacturing (AdvM) Data Repository (DR) is an Army priority. AdvM DR will fully integrate AdvM capabilities and enable the Digital Thread (DT) within the Army ERPs. It will integrate the AdvM DR with the Army Futures Command (AFC) Enterprise Product Management (ePDM) system providing a fully automated capability for the transfer of AdvM product configuration data to the AdvM DR. Capability will reduce manual efforts to transfer configuration data to the AdvM DR ensuring accuracy and configuration control of AdvM print data.
