Cubic part of Lockheed ATMP team
Cubic Global Defense will work alongside Lockheed Martin to support the US Army’s Training Aids, Devices, Simulators and Simulations (TADSS) Maintenance Program (ATMP), Cubic announced on 20 March.
Lockheed Martin received a seven-year, $3.53 billion contract from the US Army earlier this month to sustain over 300,000 fielded TADSS, including live-fire ranges and instrumentation systems worldwide.
Working as part of the team, Cubic will receive an $185 million contract award to perform work to sustain TADSS across the live, virtual, constructive and gaming domains at multiple locations supporting the army's readiness at home stations and combat training centres.
Cubic will be responsible for global operations supporting 21 locations across ten states and three countries with more than 500 personnel. The ATMP programme will support over 61 different types of training aides and devices to include Cubic's man-worn Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System and Home station Instrumented Training System.
ATMP allows maintainers to use mobile devices with advanced management information technology to effectively track and maintain a wide range of training systems. This allows the army to have maximum operational awareness and make informed decisions using on-demand access to accurate, complete and timely data.
