CG-LIMS: Project Description
When implemented, CG-LIMS will consolidate and replace various Coast Guard logistics systems into a standard set of information technology (IT) tools and processes. Logistics encompass all the activities associated with developing, acquiring and maintaining components of aviation, surface, shore infrastructure, personnel and command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR).
Capability
The Coast Guard’s Acquisition (CG-9), Engineering and Logistics (CG-4), and Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Information Technology (CG-6) Directorates are developing business processes and IT tools to provide lifecycle support for Coast Guard aircraft, cutters, boats, shore units and personnel. Building on the success of earlier computer software programs, a new generation of centrally-managed maintenance and supply chain IT tools is being designed to improve the transparency and accountability of logistics functions throughout the Coast Guard. CG-LIMS will provide a system-wide management capability for configuration, maintenance, supply chain and technical data.
CG-LIMS will use commercial off-the-shelf software that can be configured to meet Coast Guard requirements. When fully deployed, CG-LIMS will integrate the logistics lifecycle support functions, from development to disposal, of all Coast Guard assets and component systems.
