Merissa | Aug/ 31/ 2017 | 0

Entelliteq (previously IR Tech) supported the initiation of formal program management of the Global Combat Support System-Marine Corps/Logistics Chain Management (GCSS-MC/LCM) Increment 1. This project is the only Marine Corp ACAT-I/Major Automated Information System (MAIS), National Security Enterprise Program (NSEP) information technology initiative. The scope of Increment 1 was to replace 40-year-old legacy supply and maintenance information systems with an Enterprise architecture based on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) enterprise resource planning (ERP) software. As of 2010, GCSS-MC was the first DoD ERP system successfully deployed down to the tactical level, with full system rollout of Increment 1 completed in 2013. Entelliteq

Overview Entelliteq (previously IR Tech) has provided critical leadership and expertise to the GCSS-MC PMO, and other programs, in their efforts to address legacy logistic system and logistics data deficiencies. Logistics Modernization is an effort to transform its logistics data management policies, procedures, and technical strategies from legacy thinking and stove-piped information systems derived in the 1970s. Marine Corp logistics personnel have long complained about the lack of interfaces between legacy systems and where interfaces existed, the existence of data migration bottlenecks and inefficient manual data transformations.  All things considered, these legacy system deficiencies created a lack of trust in
