Integrated Logistics Support
Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) is generally considered to be the disciplined procurement and management of those "logistics elements" (e.g., Manpower & Personnel, Maintenance, Training, Supply, Transportation, Computer Support, Tools and Test Equipment) that impact the planning, funding, and support for a particular system or sub-system throughout its total Life Cycle.
ILS products that are normally required for this complex series of activities range from Level of Repair Analysis (LORA), to Technical Publications; from repair parts provisioning, to packaging solutions; from development of intrusive diagnostics, to the conduct of Logistics Demonstrations . . . the list is extensive.
In short, AM General's ILS team has established itself as an industry
leader in this field because we stand behind the quality of our ILS
products. We absolutely insist upon the accuracy, responsiveness, and
cost efficient manner in which they are produced and provided to our
customers. We recognize that good ILS planning and execution is essential
for a newly fielded system to meet its intended performance requirements,
to be developed at a reasonable price, and to be fully supported from
start to finish.
