Solerity Awarded Contract to Support the Army’s Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) with Business Support and Container Management (BSCM)

Solerity has been awarded the Business Support and Container Management contract to support the Army’s Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) continued business automation and application development and sustainment services.  SDDC’s Operations Directorate coordinates with other SDDC directorates, higher Commands, DoD shipping agencies, and commercial industry partners to facilitate ocean cargo transportation. The business model for ocean transportation is constantly evolving, and while many efforts have successfully streamlined ocean cargo documentation and tracking, the process still requires new software development and the maintenance and updating of existing business tools, software, and practices.

With over 1,000 shippers and over 25 commercial ocean carriers participating in worldwide ocean cargo movement, SDDC must constantly seek better ways to support and execute its operations. Solerity will continue to maintain and provide software solutions to support SDDC’s business and container management mission execution, to include the Documentation, Carrier Services/Compliance, Cost & Billing and Process and Systems sections of SDDC. These software solutions will be achieved through a suite of tools and reporting capabilities under the Pipeline Asset Tool (PAT) “system of systems” umbrella, the program managed by the BSCM Program Manager’s Office (PMO).  “Solerity has been a service provider to SDDC for over 10 years and is proud to continue our partnership to provide effective software solutions in support of National security.  With this award, Solerity continues to grow our software engineering and cloud service offering enabling SDDC to achieve their mission.” Said Greg Schwartz, Vice President, Technology Solutions.
