GCSS–Army is a single, web-based system that, once fully implemented, is expected to be used to manage $216 billion in assets annually. This logistics information management system replaces several older systems. The Army estimates it will save $12 billion through fiscal year 2027 by making logistics management more efficient. Department of Defense officials also expect GCSS–Army will help the Army to ensure that its financial statements are validated as audit ready.
The Global Combat Support System–Army (GCSS–Army)—a web-based information and logistics system—has improved the Army’s ability to meet logistics needs during military operations through improved visibility, accountability, and reporting of its assets, such as replacement parts and equipment. However, GCSS–Army does not function in situations where network connectivity is an issue, which could affect combat units’ performance during military operations.
