GCSS-A Increment 2
Abstract
The GCSS-Army program has two components: a functional component titled GCSS-Army and a technology enabler component provided by the AESIP Hub. GCSS-Army, coupled with AESIP, are information and communications technology investments that currently provide key enabling support to the transformation of the Army into a network-centric, knowledge-based future force. Building on the foundation of GCSS-Army Increment 1, Increment 2 will provide the Army Enterprise Aviation maintenance, enhanced BI/BW and APS functional capabilities to deliver greater efficiencies and to improve information flow and accuracy in real time to decision makers. Upon the completion of Increment 2, the ULLS-A(E), UAS-I, and AWRDS will be retired since the necessary functionality will have been replaced by capabilities implemented in GCSS-ARMY, AESIP Hub, and the Logistics Modernization Program. Enterprise Aviation capabilities extends timely and accurate visibility and accountability of materiel across the Army Logistics enterprise to Aviation Logistics, will provide capability support to Army aviation airworthiness, and allow auditability of transactions to unit level. Implementation of the BI/BW capabilities provide enhancements in materiel and supply chain readiness analytics that are critical to inform commanders' understanding of weapons systems readiness, helping them make better decisions faster on the battlefield and helping the Army achieve auditability. The APS capabilities directly impacts the speed at which a deploying unit can draw combat equipment while reducing the burden of the day-to-day maintenance and accountability of APS stock in the LMP. Increment 2 will have Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) requirements until FY 2022. The FY 2020 funding for GCSS-Army Increment 2 provides RDT&E efforts for Enterprise Aviation Release 2 to complete software development, Limited User Testing, Developmental Test and Evaluation, and begin Operational Test and Evaluation in FY 2020. Release 3 will begin software development to include system design effort, design reviews and provide Development Test and Evaluation. The BI/BW will be funded for incremental development to enhance AESIP Hub data foundation, enhance the Army Readiness Common Operating Picture and perform predictive analytics. The FY 2020 funding will also provide funds to continue Wave 3 APS design and development in GCSS-Army, AESIP and LMP, and to expand the streamlined LMP business processes associated with the planning and management of war reserve stock and integrate those processes across the ERPs.
