ECS, a leader in advanced technology, science, and digital
transformation solutions, has won a five-year recompete contract
valued at $53M in support of the USTRANSCOM Global Air
Transportation Execution System (GATES).
GATES manages all air and sea cargo and passenger movements for
Department of Defense (DoD) missions, enabling operators at air and
sea ports to manage the movement of cargo to its ultimate
destination. GATES also provides passenger processing capabilities,
including required checks with the Department of Homeland Security
(DHS), and mission-specific In-Transit Visibility (ITV) data for
USTRANSCOM and other United States Combatant Commands.
ECS will provide Agile software development to sustain and
enhance GATES operations for a worldwide user base, as well as help
desk and engineering support. ECS will migrate additional
capabilities to the cloud and improve the Agile software
development processes.
“It’s a privilege to continue to support GATES, providing the
cargo and passenger management capabilities necessary for
USTRANSCOM to project and sustain the Joint Force,” said John
Heneghan, president of ECS. “We enable continuous integration and
delivery of applications so GATES can iterate at the speed
technology evolves.”
“With our demonstrated expertise in Agile software development,
GATES has seen quicker iterations and faster technological
development, fewer bugs in the field, and the modernization of
legacy systems,” said Luis Colon-Castro, vice president of Mission
Systems at ECS. “We look forward to continuing our support for
these essential enterprise applications.”
