G4 Unit Set Modularity
Branch (USMB):
The USMB ensures G4 Modularity
initiatives are aligned with the Secretary of the Army’s priorities
of winning the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) and transforming the
Army through Unit Set Fielding and Setting the Force. The USMB
facilitates this by ensuring the Army delivers Materiel Readiness to
our Soldiers that is supportable and sustainable. The Army Vision is
People, Readiness and Transformation. Quantum is tied into every
aspect of this Vision by working on issues created by the rapid
introduction of systems fielded under Modularity in Unit Sets.

- G4 Unit Set
Readiness Reporting (USRR):
USRR, a subset of Unit Set Modernization, gives G-4 the capability
to report and provide analysis of the Operational Readiness
Reporting (ORR) of Stryker’s and Stryker Brigade Combat Teams (SBCTs).
Quantum assists G4 with objectives in prescribing policies and
procedures for the Total Logistics Readiness Sustainability Analysis
(TLRSA) in support of Stryker/SBCT ORR and in determining the
requirements to perform Readiness Analysis of Strykers/SBCTs to aid
in the early recognition of potential support/sustainment issues.

G4 Unit Set Integrated
Logistics System (USILS): USILS is the process that applies ILS, commonality and standardization
across systems in a Unit Set ,looking for cost avoidances, decreased
maintenance requirements and reducing the logistics footprint. By
applying this process to Army heavy divisions Trucks and
Semi-trailers, Quantum has identified for implementation, $130M
dollars in cost avoidances.

Logistics Execution
Information System (LEXIS):
Quantum developed and manages LEXIS for the Army G4 to be a web
based (AKO) data mart that capitalizes on existing single focused
automation tools. LEXIS satisfies G4’s requirement for an
overarching software tool and supporting architecture that
integrates, collaborates and has the ability to conduct
scenario-based assessments of critical readiness data predicated on
a wide variety of complex logistics data. LEXIS provides G4 with a
product, whose unique capability is to track leading logistics
readiness indicators for the CSA’s Strategic Readiness System (SRS),
enable scenario-based predictive logistics readiness assessments and
automation of the USILS and Modularity processes.

Additionally, Quantum assists the G4 in reviewing ONS being reviewed
by the materiel developers, combat developers and training
developers to determine applicability to future requirements or
continuing need for which a Capability Development Document (CDD)
acquisition is needed, developed an automated system that supports
the current ONS timeline and workload, developed an automated system
that synchronizes and coordinates activities between involved
agencies and develop an automated system that tracks assets being
delivered with the ONS process.
