BEYOND SUSTAINMENT
Identification. For Increment 2, the BCL process, along with BPR efforts, will enable the LMP Product Management Office to best manage requirements for accountability and delivery of new capa- bility, ensure that requirements and scope are well thought out, and ensure fast and efficient delivery of new capability.
Taken together, LMP Increments 1 and 2 will fully enable end-to-end supply chain visibility and integration of AMC mis- sion operations, and support the Army Business Systems Information Technol- ogy strategy, which serves as the road map for unified enterprise solutions and business processes and encompasses the overall Army ERP strategy.
THE NEW-LOOK LMP
The U.S. Army Logistics Modernization Program Increment 2 will build upon Increment 1 capabilities, addressing critical and emerging Army needs. LMP integrated the Army’s 30-year-old logistics systems into a single, supply system to better manage its supply chain at both the national and depot levels. (SOURCE: PD LMP)
LMP Increment 2 is currently in the design phase of the acquisition life cycle. By full deployment in FY16, Increment 2 will have completed three waves and seven releases
to an additional 14,000
sustainment phase of the acquisition life cycle. But this doesn’t mean that Incre- ment 1 work is done.
LMP Increment 1 supports end-to-end business processes for life cycle manage- ment commands and the AMC industrial base in the areas of product life-cycle man- agement, supply chain planning, finance, acquisition, maintenance, manufactur- ing
and remanufacturing, warehouse
inventory management, and distribution. Sustainment and fixes for these business areas, as well as compliance, are at the forefront of current LMP Increment 1 work efforts.
Increment 1 work also includes complet- ing functional releases that will address and correct deficiencies, such as improv- ing the Enterprise Data Warehouse and Extended Warehouse Management
82 Army AL&T Magazine January–March 2013 systems, along with addressing AMC
critical priorities within the scope of LMP Increment 1 as they arise. Other Increment 1 efforts will continue to address both statutory and regulatory financial
compliance and auditability requirements.
While LMP Increment 1 answered the original call for an ERP solution for AMC’s national-level logistics and finance needs, it does not currently sup- port certain Army critical and emerging requirements. Enter LMP Increment 2.
INCREMENT 2 LMP Increment 2 will
enhance the
already deployed system by adding capa- bility to the depots, as well as addressing shop floor automation and specific Army and DOD strategic business trans- formation goals, such as
Item Unique
users, to include functionality that will complement the current LMP system. Specifically, Increment 2 will focus on:
Expanded Industrial Base (EIB)—In addition to supporting maintenance planning, scheduling, inventory management, and parts support for industrial base missions, LMP Incre- ment 2 will support the execution of maintenance and production, specifi- cally capture and tracking capability using Item Unique Identification, and weapons
system configuration genealogy. and It also will enable Auto-
matic Identification Technology to reduce data entry errors and allow industrial base technicians to quickly view planned tasks and record actual execution.
Additionally, EIB functionality will support a standard enterprise solution for shop floor automation using the SAP
