LOGSA: The Army's Trusted Source of Readiness Information and Solutions

摘要

After years of combat operations and decades of using standard Army information management systems to sustain readiness, the Army has taken the initiative to leverage enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and technology to improve and condense sustainment operations and processes. The Army is fielding ERP systems that modernize automated logistics at both the national and field levels. At the national level, the Logistics Modernization Program (LMP) is being used by all the Army Materiel Command (AMC) life cycle management commands and their supporting depots and arsenals. At the field level, the Army is in the process of fielding the Global Combat Support System-Army (GCSS-Army) to its tactical formations. LMP and GCSS-Army will improve supply and maintenance business processes with the intent of making the logistics tail more efficient and effective from the factory to the foxhole. The ultimate goal of this effort is to improve sustainment and reduce the cost of supporting readiness.
