The Army's Deployed Theater Accountability System (DTAS) gives them complete visibility
of all deployed personnel (including military, DOD, civilian, foreign nationals, etc) that are
working for the Army within a given theater of operations.
DTAS consists of many parts, including the DTAS Mobile System (laptops), the DTAS Theater
System (central theater server), and the Theater Manager.
AEGIS was brought in to the DTAS team to create the Theater Manager web application, using
ASP.NET, C#, Dynamic HTML, and Microsoft SQL Server. While the DTAS Mobile
System keeps track of positions and statuses of personnel at the unit level, the Theater Manager
keeps track of the units at the theater level. The Theater Manager allows the Army and
Marines to change their command hierarchy on the fly and assign and manage DTAS Mobile
Systems securely and instantaneously via the web. Following implementation, AEGIS mentored
the DTAS technical staff in their efforts to expand the system.
In addition to our architecture and development effort, AEGIS also provided load and stress
testing services for DTAS. This presented a unique challenge because no COTS product existed
for testing this type of implementation. The testing, therefore, involved design and development
of an effective test harness and a hardware layer comprised of blade servers and specialized
switches to accurately model DTAS Mobile Systems in the field.

The Electronic Military Personnel Office (eMILPO) is an Army PEO-EIS system developed by EDS
for the Army Human Resources Systems (AHRS) program. The system handles personnel transactions
such as mobilizations, arrivals/departures, maintenance of family/medical data, and promotion/
rank history data. The system was designed under a centralized model accessible world wide via the
Army's NIPRNET. It is built on J2EE and deployed on BEA WebLogic.
AEGIS designed and developed several functional modules within eMILPO as a key component of
the eMILPO development team. AEGIS played a critical role in supporting the production deployment
of the eMILPO Data Store, a Cognos-based data warehouse implementation, assisting in the
resolution of technical problems in the vendor's product. AEGIS also provided Load & Stress Testing
services for eMILPO prior to deployment, identifying and resolving a number of potential threats to
performance and stability.

PERSTEMPO is the US Army's system for tracking and managing the utilization of soldiers (the
Personnel Tempo). The Congressionally mandated program ensures that commanders are sensitive to
the lengths of time that individual soldiers are deployed away from home.
AEGIS was introduced to PERSTEMPO in a technical architecture and mentoring role by the software
vendor upon whose platform PERSTEMPO is built. We supported EDS Government Solutions and
Northrop Grumman Information Technologies in the execution of the enhancement and maintenance
of the system. Our role quickly expanded into assisting with project management including risk management
issues and interfacing with other service groups (e.g., Army Knowledge Online [AKO]),
functional domain responsibilities, production system administration support, and revisions to the basic
architecture of the system. AEGIS later worked with EDS to re-engineer the application and merge
its functionality with the Electronic Military Personnel Office (eMILPO) application. This secondary
effort involved detailed analysis and design with the technical team and the user community, presentation
of the design to Army management, oversight of the nine month development and testing process,
and support during production implementation.
