Budget figures
No FY2026 R-1/P-1 request line for this program element. The FY2026 President's Budget request workbook carries no FY2026 line for it; its last workbook figure is FY2025. The PB2026 J-book detail below does carry an FY2026 row for this line, recorded as zero. A workbook blank and a documented zero are different records, and this page shows both. An absent line is not by itself an ending — PB2026 renumbered program elements at scale across the services and defense agencies, so this work may continue under a different number. No successor is linked for this line: this site's program-lineage layer holds no keyed edge pointing forward from here. That is an absence in this site's lineage layer, not a finding about the program: if the J-book narrative on this page describes a realignment, it is quoted below in the document's own words, and this note does not restate it.

The vertical scale does not start at zero: the baseline sits just below this program’s smallest year, so a low point on this line is not a small amount. Read the shape for direction and the grid below for the figures.

Asked vs spent: the PB2018 book requested $64.4M for FY2018; the PB2020 book reported $45.4M as actual total obligation authority — $19.0M below the request. 45.4 − 64.4 = -19.0 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description
Mission — Global Combat Support System
GCSS-Army gives combat forces a decisive edge by providing soldiers a seamless flow of timely, accurate, accessible, and secure logistics information to get combat power at the right place, at the right time. The GCSS-Army program is an information and communications technology investment that provides key enabling support to the transformation of the Army into a network-centric, knowledge-based future force. The GCSS-Army approved Capability Development Document (CDD) and Capability Production Document (CPD) require an enterprise approach to replace current logistics and maintenance Standard Army Management Information Systems (STAMIS) to include supply, maintenance, ammunition, aviation, and property book. GCSS-Army implements best business practices to streamline supply, accountability, maintenance, distribution, and reporting procedures in support of the future force transition path of The Army Campaign Plan. The funds in the GCSS-Army Research Development Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) line are for building the software solution for disconnected supply, ground maintenance and accountability, and Store and Forward Capability. In FY 2024 after transition to capability support, RDT&E funding for Continuous Enhancements was used to execute system change requests (SCRs) to enhance sustainment activities, accountability, auditability, and calculations of total cost of ownership. Implementation of SCRs enhance capability support and effectiveness by synchronizing system data and utilizing enterprise interface tools to eliminate input errors. FY 2025 Base dollars in the amount of $2.566 million continues to support GCSS-Army Audit related fixes and Cyber updates. Other FY 2025 enhancements include: follow-on Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM) to include privilege user access management and zero trust. The FY 2025 RDT&E funds also support the completion of the software solution for disconnected supply, ground maintenance and accountability, and Store and Forward Capability. GCSS-Army does not have an RDTE funding request in FY 2026. GCSS-Army Enterprise Aviation is integrating the Aircraft Notebook (ACN) data into GCSS-Army via an interface with the Enterprise Aviation Middleware components.
Mission — Global Combat Support Sys - Army
GCSS-Army provides critical Army sustainment support to the soldier with a seamless flow of timely, accurate, accessible, and secure information management that gives combat forces a decisive edge and is essential for combat readiness. The GCSS-Army approved Capability Development Document (CDD) and Capability Production Document (CPD) require an enterprise approach to replace current logistics and maintenance Standard Army Management Information Systems (STAMIS) to include supply, maintenance, ammunition and property book. GCSS-Army implements best business practices to streamline supply, accountability, maintenance, distribution, and reporting procedures in support of the future force transition path of The Army Campaign Plan. GCSS-Army is financially compliant and is a key component for the Army Enterprise Strategy to be financially auditable. The FY 2024 funds in the GCSS-Army Research Development Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) line were used for building the software solution for disconnected supply, maintenance and accountability, and Store and Forward capability. The Army requires a disconnected operations architecture for GCSS-Army to support ground mission. Currently the Army has battlefield gaps without network connectivity: inability to maintain or regenerate combat power, order/process spare parts, track battle losses, or conduct maintenance. The disconnected operations architecture will alleviate these problems when there are disruptions in communications or cyber-attacks. The FY 2024 funding also supported critical change requests in each fiscal year, coming from the warfighter and prioritized by the Combat Developer, for the baseline system. Implementation of SCRs enhance capability support and effectiveness by synchronizing system data and utilizing enterprise interface tools to eliminate input errors. Also in FY 2024, RDT&E funds supported Advanced Manufacturing (AdvM) Data Repository (DR). FY 2025 Base dollars in the amount of $2.566 million continues to support GCSS-Army Audit related fixes and Cyber updates. Other enhancements include: follow-on ICAM to include privilege user access management and zero trust. The FY 2025 RDT&E funds also completes the software solution for disconnected supply, ground maintenance and accountability, and Store and Forward Capability. GCSS-Army does not have an RDTE funding request in FY 2026 Base.
Justification
Accomplishments & Planned Programs (3)
Product Development
The funds in the GCSS-Army RDT&E line are for building the software solution for disconnected supply, ground maintenance and accountability, and Store and Forward capability. The Army requires a disconnected operations architecture for GCSS-Army to support ground mission.
Advanced Manufacturing Data Repository
Advanced Manufacturing (AdvM) Data Repository (DR) is an Army priority. AdvM DR will fully integrate AdvM capabilities and enable the Digital Thread (DT) within the Army ERPs. It will integrate the AdvM DR with the Army Futures Command (AFC) Enterprise Product Management (ePDM) system providing a fully automated capability for the transfer of AdvM product configuration data to the AdvM DR. Capability will reduce manual efforts to transfer configuration data to the AdvM DR ensuring accuracy and maintaining configuration control of AdvM print data.
Continuous Enhancements
The funds in the GCSS-Army RDT&E line are for continuous enhancements. In capability support phase, the RDT&E funding will be used to execute system change requests to enhance sustainment activities, accountability, auditability, and calculations of total cost of ownership.

Follow the dollar
No follow-the-dollar view — this program's awards haven't been crosswalked at high confidence (flows cover 312 of 1,938 programs). why coverage is partial? →
Awards
No awards are linked to this program element at high or medium confidence — the budget→award crosswalk only asserts links it can defend, and this line has none yet.
Lobbying mentions
No Senate LDA lobbying filing in the tracked data mentions this program element by code or alias.
Oversight
Department-level designation (not specific to this program)
GAO lists 5 high-risk areas for DOD as a whole. That designation covers the department, not Global Combat Support System. No program-specific GAO finding for this line is in the ingested data. See the DOD oversight record.
Program dossier
No research dossier for this program — dossiers cover 50 of 1,938 programs, the largest fully J-book-detailed lines by FY2026 requested dollars. why no dossier here? →
