Diligent Consulting has received a $32 million contract to design and build a web-based system for the U.S. Air Force to plan, schedule and execute depot maintenance efforts.
The company will also help the service branch integrate, test, deploy and maintain the Maintenance Repair and Overhaul initiative platform with unmodified commercial software, the Air Force said Thursday.
MROi will work to standardize logistics operations across the Air Force Sustainment Center’s commodities, electronics, missile and propulsion maintenance groups as well as support 11,500 users through four releases based on specific mission areas.
The project is part of the Air Force’s Logistics Information Technology modernization program and the service branch noted the system is slated to become its first Enterprise Resource Planning system that will run in a Defense Information Systems Agency-hosted production representative environment.
The ERP system will use tools from the Common Computing Environment managed by an Air Force Life Cycle Management Center division.
Paul Schaeffer, MROi deputy program manager, said the branch expects to receive the platform within two years.
