Forge Group Partners to Transform Army’s Sales Case System
Forge Group Takes a Significant Step in Army Support
Forge Group, LLC (Forge) is excited to announce a major development in enhancing its long-standing contributions to the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) initiatives for the Department of Defense (DoD). The recent contract awarding Forge the responsibility to modernize the FMS Army Case Execution System (FMS-ACES) marks a new era of technological advancement in military sales operations.
Why Modernization is Critical for the Army
The upcoming FMS-ACES application is designed to replace the Army's outdated Case Information System (CISIL), which has served for over 30 years. This modernization effort is crucial not only for enhancing the accuracy of deployments but also for streamlining the entire lifecycle of FMS Case Management, from initial setup to case closure, including logistics and financial management.
Enhancing User Experience with Innovative Technology
One of the primary focuses of the FMS-ACES is to empower approximately 1,000 users—ranging from case managers to financial staff—with state-of-the-art decision-making tools. The new system will feature automated workflows and data analysis capabilities that allow military personnel to respond effectively and promptly to pressing national security tasks.
Insights from Army Leadership
As Kelly Rutherford, Product Lead for FMS-ACES at the United States Army, expressed, “The modernization of our Foreign Military Sales case management system is a critical step in ensuring the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations.” With Forge's innovative approach, users will benefit from a fast, accurate system that not only improves daily operations but also enhances their ability to engage in smart reporting.
Forge Group’s Unique Expertise and Collaboration
This award highlights Forge Group's commitment to effective and rapid digital solutions, showcasing their deep understanding of the intricacies of the FMS Case Lifecycle. The partnership with technology leaders such as Appian and AWS, combined with integration specialists like Horizon Industries and 540.co, positions Forge as a key player in this transformative project. The Appian Platform has been selected to facilitate this transition due to its robust automation skills and compatibility with existing DoD systems.
A Proud Moment for Forge Group
Brittney Killen, the Founder and CEO of Forge, noted the honor of being the only small business tapped for such a significant platform development. “This is exactly the type of work Forge was born to do – we are FMS people, and we are heavily experienced in pioneering, leveraging, and customizing secure, human-focused technology,” she said, emphasizing the company’s commitment to excellence in service.
