Logistics Information Technology (LOGIT)

The Logistics Information Technology (LOGIT) program, managed by the Air Force, seeks to enhance logistics operations through a comprehensive transformation of its IT infrastructure. The primary goal is to integrate logistics capabilities to provide timely, accurate, and reliable information across all command levels. This initiative focuses on transforming the logistics IT enterprise into a more efficient and cost-effective system by eliminating redundancies and implementing modern cloud-based architectures. The program leverages Agile development methodologies and follows the Business Capability Acquisition Cycle (BCAC) to ensure efficient deployment of new systems.

A key component of the LOGIT program is the Transformation Capability Initiatives (TCIs), which include projects like the Foundational Logistics Information Technology Enterprise System (FLITES) and the Supply Capability Initiative. FLITES aims to standardize item cataloging processes and improve data integration across logistics systems. Meanwhile, the Supply Capability Initiative focuses on enhancing supply chain visibility and simplifying procurement processes. These initiatives are designed to support the Air Force's Logistics Capability Transformation Plan by providing standardized processes and improved asset management.

In addition to transformation efforts, LOGIT addresses remediation and modernization of existing logistics systems to meet statutory compliance requirements such as Financial Improvement Audit Readiness (FIAR). This involves upgrading software systems like the Integrated Logistics System-Supply (ILS-S) and the Enhanced Technical Information Management System (ETIMS) to reduce operating costs, improve performance, and consolidate systems for better cybersecurity. The modernization efforts align with strategic plans from both the Joint Chiefs of Staff J-4 Concept for Logistics and the Air Force Portfolio Board's approved Logistics Flight Plan.

LOGIT's objectives focus on achieving seamless integration of logistics IT systems that support operational demands while ensuring compliance with statutory requirements. By employing Agile development practices and leveraging commercial off-the-shelf solutions, LOGIT aims to deliver high-value capabilities rapidly and efficiently. The program's focus on continuous integration and deployment ensures adaptability to evolving technological advancements and operational needs.
