(Nasdaq: APPN) is proud to announce an expansion of its
ongoing partnership with the US Army as part of the Foreign
Military Sales (FMS) Army Case Execution System (ACES) production
delivery contract. The FMS-ACES contract has been awarded to Forge

Appian announces an expansion of its
ongoing partnership with the US Army as part of the FMS-ACES
contract.
The FMS-ACES application will replace the Army's over
30-year-old Case Information System (CISIL). The Appian Platform
will modernize and streamline the Army's FMS process, managing
everything from case initiation and lifecycle management to case
closeout, logistics, and financials. The application will provide
Army users with automated workflow and process features,
comprehensive data analysis and visualization capabilities,
real-time connections to over 20 government data source systems,
and detailed reporting capability.
The new system will support approximately 1,000 users with about
600 concurrent users, including case managers, logisticians,
financial personnel, and audit staff. This modernization effort
will not only enhance efficiency and accuracy but also provide the
Army with real-time data analysis and visualization capabilities,
empowering better decision-making to more efficiently respond to
essential tasks for national security objectives.
"The modernization of our Foreign Military Sales case management
system is a critical step in ensuring the efficiency and
effectiveness of our operations. Appian's platform provides the
robust, flexible, and data-driven capabilities we need to manage
the complexities of the FMS process," said Kelly Rutherford, Product Lead, FMS-ACES, United
States Army. "This new system will not only streamline our
workflows but also enhance our ability to make informed decisions
in real time, ultimately supporting our mission to deliver superior
service to our global partners."
Forge, the technology and security cooperation-focused global
consulting, brings a deep understanding of the nuanced FMS Case
Lifecycle, and complex expertise in delivering rapid, intelligent
digital solutions. As the delivery partner, Horizon Industries will
use its 15 years of Appian experience and agile methodologies to
support implementation.
"We are honored to continue our support of the US Army's mission
through the FMS-ACES project," said Jason
Adolf, Vice President, Global Public Sector, Appian. "Our
platform's ability to transform legacy systems into modern,
efficient, and reliable solutions is unmatched, and we look forward
to delivering exceptional value and capabilities to the Army."

initiatives, leveraging our expertise in process automation,
integration, private and responsible AI, and data-driven
