Automated Materiel Tracking Solution Helps Ensure Military Readiness
When European military doctrines required that Germany transform its military capabilities for the 21st century, the German Armed Forces enlisted EDS to deliver an automated materiel tracking solution for the logistics supply chain.
Working with partner OHB Teledata, EDS delivered its best-in-class materiel solution, a highly innovative and proven technology for tracking materiel using telematics services and satellite transmission. Among EDS' responsibilities included integrating the German Armed Forces' logistical data warehouse and its legacy logistical systems into an enterprise-level supply chain management system.
The integrated, real-time solution provides German task forces with rapid, real-time data and a comprehensive view of materiel and supplies, taking Germany to a new level in preparedness.
