Air Force landing strips use TMOS to collect weather data for planners and field commanders. AAI will provide on-call assistance and management of the systems, as well as supplying spares and repair services.
“We have extensive experience in managing these services for a variety of mission-critical systems from our own facilities and at domestic and international customer sites,” said Diane Giuliani, vice president of Logistics & Technical Services for AAI. “By taking careful control of the supply chain that feeds system repairs, we can drive an effective process that delivers consistent TMOS availability for the Air Force.”
AAI will manage TMOS for the Hill Air Force Base in Utah from its Ogden, Utah, location. The first delivery in the contract is valued at more than $5.2 million.
