## What project T05 buys

Army Business System Modernization Initiatives include: 1. Enterprise Business Systems-Convergence (EBS-C): SAP announced that the current application, Enterprise Central Component (ECC), would not be maintained after 2027 and customers will be required to upgrade to their new version SAP S/4 HANA. In response to this notification, the Army conducted studies in 2019/2020 by the Business Enterprise IT Leaders Group chaired by the Office of Business Transformation. Based on the results of these studies and direction from the Under Secretary of the Army, EBS-C is executing a strategic approach to modernize the Army business system landscape; align modern combat and combat support system capabilities with existing modernization efforts to enable Army force dominance during multi-domain large-scale combat operations in contested logistics environments; and improve overall Army financial operations resulting in improved financial management and successful audit outcomes. The Army is working EBS-C requirements to improve process agility and cross process integration; provide consistent user experiences with an intuitive user interface; and improve data integrity and security. At the enterprise level, EBS-C seeks to integrate financial and logistics processes and create opportunities to decrease overall Defense Business Systems (DBS) redundancies and duplications existing in the Army portfolio. The in-scope DBS for this effort includes General Funds Enterprise Business Systems (GFEBS) and GFEBS-Sensitive Activities (SA), Logistics Management Program (LMP), Global Combat Support System (GCSS)-Army, Army Enterprise System Integration Program (AESIP) Hub, and numerous non-ERP systems performing needed logistics and financial functions. FY 2027 dollars in the amount of $67.090 million will enable the development of the EBS-C solution and the establishment of the Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (Cl/CD) pipeline. The development will continue based on the Minimum Viable Capability Release in FY 2025 deployed to the EBS-C solution in FedRAMP compliant government provided cloud environments utilizing proven agile methodology. 2.

**R-3 lines of work:** Management Services; Product Development; Test and Evaluation.

### Army Vantage

**FY2027 planned work.** FY 2027 funding will be used to continue effort(s) to mitigate risk with enterprise data platform migration, pilot an open architecture universal data connection adapter to broker data with legacy systems, and further support the Army CIOs API layer enabling the enterprise data mesh construct. The features and advantages of the platform allow the Army to (1) see itself clearly through its authoritative data, (2) meet its strategic modernization objectives, and (3) rapidly realize ROI through data transparency, data sharing through the Vantage Common Data Platform, and allowing for a consistent and unified analytical tool set for the Army enterprise. RDTE will also be used for modernization efforts to include a commercial data connection adapter, supporting API pilots, and to prototype new technology for potential incorporation to the platform. Follow on capability will take the current platform and move it forward aligning with the digital transformation and UDRA guidance from the Senior Leaders. Additionally, the Army will be looking into extending the capability through a multivendor approach focused on platform, services and tools to enable greater efficiencies and cost savings.

**FY2026 to FY2027 change.** FY 2027 funding decrease due to economic adjustments.

**FY2026 plans — current year.** FY 2026 funding will be used to continue effort(s) to mitigate risk with enterprise data platform migration, pilot an open architecture universal data connection adapter to broker data with legacy systems, and further support the Army CIOs API layer enabling the enterprise data mesh construct. The features and advantages of the platform allow the Army to (1) see itself clearly through its authoritative data, (2) meet its strategic modernization objectives, and (3) rapidly realize ROI through data transparency, data sharing through the Vantage Common Data Platform, and allowing for a consistent and unified analytical tool set for the Army enterprise. RDTE will also be used for modernization efforts to include a commercial data connection adapter, supporting API pilots, and throughout the POM to prototype new technology for potential incorporation to the platform. Follow on capability will take the current platform and move it forward aligning with the digital transformation and UDRA guidance from the Senior Leaders. Additionally, the Army will be looking into extending the capability through a multivendor approach focused on platform, services and tools to enable greater efficiencies and cost savings.
