A new program office has been established to unify logistics/distribution/transportation visibility efforts between DLAs Integrated Data Environment (IDE) initiative and USTRANSCOMs Global Transportation Network program (GTN), with the goal of eliminating redundancy, streamlining access to data and optimizing resources.
The convergence of the two programs will provide common integrated data services to assist development of applications that will give combatant commands, the services, DOD, and other federal agencies a cohesive solution to manage supply chain, distribution and logistics information. Convergence will provide a single point of systems data integration within and between USTRANSCOM and DLA and other systems; ensure consistent access to common, authoritative logistics data, business rules, and provide reliable information for USTRANSCOM and DLA and their customers.
To smooth the integration process, both programs have been placed under a single program executive officer (PEO), Mr. David Falvey, at DLA. The program manager is Army Lt. Col. Pat Flanders at USTRANSCOM. Flanders is currently leading a 90-day technical analysis to evaluate and recommend the best approach to deliver these capabilities. After the analysis, the USTRANSCOM/DLA team will jointly develop the strategy for delivering the necessary data sharing and systems to provide this needed end-to-end capability.
USTRANSCOM, located at Scott AFB, Ill., is responsible for the synchronization and interoperability of transportation and distribution-related activities supporting the deployment, employment, sustainment, and redeployment of global forces conducting a full range of military operations. More information about USTRANSCOM is available at www.transcom.mil.
DLA provides supply support, and technical and logistics services to the U.S. military services and several federal civilian agencies. Headquartered at Fort Belvoir, Va., the agency is the one source for nearly every consumable item, whether for combat readiness, emergency preparedness or day-to-day operations. More information about DLA is available at www.dla.mil.
