Air Force Awards $3.8 million Contract to Robbins-Gioia Team for Program at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base
December 19, 2006, Alexandria, VA—The Air Force awarded a $3.8 million contract to a team spearheaded
by Robbins Gioia, LLC’s Dayton office, to provide a variety of support services to the Expeditionary Combat Support
System (ECSS) program at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Dayton, Ohio.
“The Robbins Gioia team is pleased the Air Force selected us to be a key member of its major Enterprise Resource
Planning (ERP) program office,” said Kelly Kooser, Dayton-based vice president of business development for Robbins-Gioia’s
defense division. “We look forward to providing quality program and financial management, enterprise resource planning,
and acquisition support that will lead to the successful implementation of ECSS.”
Replacing more than 500 systems when it is fully implemented over the next several years, ECSS will consist of
a single Air Force-wide suite of Web-based computer applications. The system will integrate logistics functions
such as supply, maintenance, repair, distribution, and procurement with related business functions such as budgeting
and financial and personnel management.
The benefit of ECSS to the Air Force is that, upon its full implementation, all logistics personnel will have access
to the same pool of information. Numerous systems currently used by the Air Force do not necessarily contain the same
information; nor do all of them “talk” to each other. This lack of integration has the potential to create problems that
directly impact Air Force personnel in carrying out their missions.
The winning team includes Robbins Gioia, LLC; Capital City Technologies, O’Fallon, Ill.; CDO Technologies, Inc.,
Dayton; Logistics Management Institute, McLean, Va.; and Quantech Services, Bedford, Mass.
