The contract has a three-year base performance period and requires Accenture Federal Services (AFS) to develop a web-enabled enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution.
AFS will collaborate with the AFIPPS Program Management Office and Functional Management Office to implement an intuitive, agile and secure system that is aimed at providing accurate and timely information.
The solution will integrate the existing personnel and pay processes into a single unified ERP system and also reduce the cost of ownership across system operations.
Accenture Federal Services military services head George Batsakis said: “The AFIPPS contract demonstrates the airforce’s commitment to modernise its business practices and provide enhanced support for today’s service members and their families.
