Overview

• Marine Corps Systems

– MAGTF Deployment Support System II (MDSS II)– Integrated Computerized Deployment System

(ICODES)– Automated Aircraft Load Planning System

(AALPS)– Asset Tracking Logistics Supply System

(ATLASS)– MAGTF Data Library (MDL)– Automated Identification Technology (AIT)

MPF - 10 6

Global Command and Control System (GCCS)

• The joint standard architecture for C2 systems

• Supports Joint Operational Planning and Execution System (JOPES)

• JOPES is a process

MPF - 10 7

Time-Phased Force Deployment Data (TPFDD)

• Registers all lift requirements for deployment

• Product of JOPES

• Part of GCCS

MPF - 10 8

TPFDD Validation

• Deployment– USTRANSCOM– Supported Unified

Commander– Supporting Unified

Commander– MARFORCOM/PAC– MEF– Major Subordinate

Command

• Redeployment– USTRANSCOM– Supported Unified

Commander– Joint Task Force– MARFOR– Command Element– Major Subordinate

TPFDD Elements

• Unit Name• Unit Identification Code• Origin• Port of Embarkation• Port of Debarkation• Destination• Ready-to-Load Date• Available-to-Load Date

• Earliest Arrival Date• Latest Arrival Date• Required Delivery Date• Commander’s Required

Date• Passengers• Cargo• Square Feet• HAZMAT

ORIGIN POE'S POD'S TAA'S

MPF - 10 14

Latest Arrival Date (LAD)

• Key date for USTRANSCOM

• Ensure LAD supports all other efforts of the force

• Ensure window provides flexibility for USTRANSCOM– EAD – LAD (3-7 days)

MPF - 10 15

Joint Flow Analysis System for Transportation (JFAST)

• Estimates transportation resources and time available

• TPFDD not necessary– Accepts movement requirements without

an operation plan

• Assesses critical node throughput– Port, Airfield, Railhead

MPF - 10 16

Logistics Sustainment Analysis and Feasibility Estimator (LOGSAFE)

• Assesses the sustainment feasibility of proposed operation plan

• Detailed records– Logistics support– Mode of shipment

• Interfaces/interacts with other systems

MPF - 10 17

Global Transportation Network (GTN)

• Centralized transportation management system

• Supports total asset visibility (TAV)

• Maintains In-Transit Visibility (ITV)

MPF - 10 18

Consolidated Aerial Ports System II (CAPS II)

• AMC’s C2 system for major aerial ports throughout the world

• Process cargo and passenger movements

• Feeds various joint systems, including GTN

MPF - 10 19

Global Decision Support System (GDSS)

• AMC System– Schedules, tracks, controls strategic air

• Updates every 15 minutes

MPF - 10 20

GDSS Data

• Pulls data from the TPFDD

• Pushes out aircraft schedules
