First Army leverages modern workflow solution to link the Program, Budget, and Execution of the PPBE process.

The Business Problem

about customer

First Army is the oldest and longest-established field army of the United States Army. It served as a theater army, having seen service in both World War I and World War II, and supplied the US Army with Soldiers and equipment during the Korean War and the Vietnam War under some of the most famous and distinguished officers of the U.S. Army. It now serves as a mobilization, readiness, and training command. 

Challenge

First Army was using a disconnected legacy process that did not allow for 360 degree validation of mission requirements. This disconnect resulted in an inefficient funding distribution model which drove multiple reprogramming actions and under/over execution through the fiscal year. 

Solution

Fully integrated workflow from the lowest to the highest echelons in the organization which enables participation (requirements generation, validation, funding, procure ment, and execution tracking) in all phases of the PPBE process. 

Results
