Logistics IT System Modernization
- LOGIT is a portfolio of programs enabling the DAF logistics enterprise including aircraft maintenance, base-level supply operations, and the authoritative source for all DAF items for aircraft and vehicles. The DAF logistics enterprise is currently comprised of disparate, antiquated, stovepiped systems and processes leaving logistics operations inefficient, costly, and vulnerable. The goal of this portfolio is to modernize the logistics IT enterprise for a more efficient, cost-effective, integrated, standardized, and resilient suite of systems. These systems will also incorporate the latest in cybersecurity measures and meet the statutory IT compliance requirements including Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness (FIAR). The DAF logistics enterprise is comprised of multiple overarching functional areas to include field-level maintenance, end-to-end supply chain management, and DAF item cataloging and provisioning. The current programs within this PE include: Enhanced Technical Information Management System (ETIMS), Foundational Logistics Information Technology Enterprise System (FLITES), Supply Capability Initiative (SCI), Integrated Logistics System-Supply (ILS-S), Enterprise Logistics Management System (ELMS), and Field Maintenance (Field Mx). - ETIMS is the system of record for all Technical Orders (TOs) and fully integrates electronic TOs (eTOs) supporting enterprise-wide distribution and viewing along with print-on-demand services. This system supports over 178K users across 385 sites worldwide. ETIMS is set to subsume multiple systems and capabilities terminating duplicate capabilities and achieving statutory IT requirements and FIAR compliance. The development efforts for ETIMS were completed in FY2025. - FLITES provides the capability to manage comprehensive, accurate, reliable item master data (e.g., accurate identification and authorization of owners and users of items). FLITES provides item standardization and configuration management from a single authoritative source ensuring foundational logistics processes are executed in concert to support the A4 logistics baseline.
FY2026 plans — current year ETIMS finished development in FY2025 and is now in continuous capability improvement.
FY2027 planned work - Will begin development, testing, assessment, and support of ILS-S upgrade enhancing capabilities including order management, inventory management, and asset management. - Will begin development and testing of procurement capability upgrades. - Will begin and complete transformation and integration of enhanced financial management capability to meet statutory IT and FIAR compliance.
FY2027 planned work - Will begin development, testing, assessment, and support of ELMS upgrades enhancing capabilities including procurement, order management, inventory management, and asset management. - Will begin and complete accounting system upgrades for reviewing data element accuracy and added capabilities for business processes. - Will begin and complete the Government Furnished Equipment (GFP) module interface and capabilities to fully automate asset management.
FY2026 to FY2027 change - SCI completed all development efforts in FY2026. The FY2026 efforts were used to scope and define requirements for development efforts within the supply enterprise leading to funding new start programs ILS-S and ELMS.
FY2026 plans — current year - Continue modernization of supply business operations and improvements identified in the DAF Logistics Capabilities Transformation Plan. - Identify efforts for future modernization within the supply enterprise.
- Will continue business process transformation, compliance, enhancements, and integration with other systems using agile incremental releases. - Will continue configuration of commercial platform to provide foundational logistics capability. - Will conduct recurring cyber security and system performance testing concurrent with…
