USTRANSCOM appreciates your participation in this acquisition. The following is a brief synopsis of the AT21 requirement: Agile Transportation for the 21st Century will identify and implement business processes and systems that enable USTRANSCOM?s distribution planning, transportation planning, and transportation execution activities in support of the DOD distribution enterprise. This effort will apply best business practices and leverage order management and transportation management technologies; enhance supply chain capabilities resulting in reduced deployment and distribution cycle times, increased customer satisfaction via tailored distribution support, and reduced customer wait time; and, achieve of an environment that provides asset visibility throughout the supply chain and leads to decreased materiel costs. The effort will focus less on capturing the ?as-is? processes and more on providing a solution ?blueprint? that best meets the program objectives (mission capability and performance), addressing and integrating the myriad of enterprise-wide elements including: organization, culture, personnel competency, business processes, facilities and assets, and enabling information technology. The ultimate solution should define and enable end-to-end integrated processes to achieve transformational impact, rather than applying technology to existing processes for incremental improvement. This requirement will be managed in increments as shown below. Initiation of each increment is not necessarily dependent on the completion of the previous increment. Increment Description I Requirements Consolidation and Workflow Management II Strategic-Level Optimization and Scheduling III Operational-Level Optimization and Scheduling Post Incr III Post Increment 3 Support Specific AT21 requirements will be identified in the Capability Development Document (CDD) and in the Performance Work Statement (PWS) to be included in the upcoming draft solicitation expected to be released the week of October 16, 206.
