The Development of a Business Case Analysis for the Acquisition of the Agile Rapid Global Combat Support System Used for the United States Marine Corps' Ground Equipment

Abstract

Agile Rapid Global Combat Support (ARGCS) system is a new Automatic Test System being developed through the Department of Defense's Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration program. This business case analyzes ARGCS benefits for the Marine Corps as an option to replace their current Automated Test Systems for ground equipment. The business case analyzes the Marine Corps' current systems, specifically the Marine Corps' Third Echelon Test Set, and quantifies the relevant differences between these systems and the Agile Rapid Global Combat Support System.
