| Integrated Computerized Deployment System (ICODES) |
| Primary Purpose | ICODES is the DOD cross-service migration system |
| for ship stow planning. It provides intelligent |
| decision-support to Army, Navy and Marine Corps |
| users during unit deployment operations. |
| Sub-Functions | Streamline and standardize terminal cargo |
| personnel training support. Enable more effective |
| allocation of scarce personnel to accommodate |
| fluctuations in workload. Provide comprehensive |
| ad-hoc reporting capabilities to tailor reports |
| for specific needs or projects. Provides an |
| intelligent automated assistant that is effective |
| and less costly to support. Support simultaneous |
| stow planning for multiple vessels with multiple |
| POE/POD's. Support unknown vessels with a |
| generic ship-generating tool. Rapidly elevate the |
| proficiency of inexperienced stow planners. |
| Equipment Requirements | The Army version 3.x executes on the HP-UX and |
| the IBM-AIX UNIX operating systems is being |
| replaced by the ICODES NT version 5.x. Plans are |
| being made to extend fielding to the Navy and |
| Marine Corps. Minimum hardware specifications |
| include: late model Pentium II/III; 500 Mhz |
| processor speed; 256 RAM and Open GL compatible. |
| Connectivity Requirements | ICODES operates in either a standalone or |
| networked environment. |
| Crypto Requirements | None required. |
| Normal Locations | USMC MEU's, MEF's, MEB's, and MAGTF's, Navy Fleet |
| Industrial Supply Centers (FISC), HQMTMC, MTMC |
| water ports, Terminal Transportation Brigades |
| (TTB), MTMC Deployment Support Command (DSC), |
| MTMC Transportation Engineering Agency (TEA), |
| HQMTMC and Army active/reserve Transportation |
| Units. |
| Information Managed | Ability to simultaneously load up to four ships |
| with multiple POE's and/or POD's. Additionally |
| ICODES contains ship and cargo libraries, cargo |
| association capability, and assisted and user |
| stow with detailed cargo templates. |
| Products Created | Customized reports such as cargo manifests, |
| hazardous cargo manifests, etc, detailed deck |
| layouts, and cargo staging plans. |
| Lead Service/Contractor | Joint. Developed by California Polytechnic State |
| University. Managed by Transportation Command |
| (TRANSCOM) with HQ, Military Traffic Management |
| Command (HQMTMC) as the lead agency. |
| Current Fielding Status | MTMC ports, Terminal Transportation Brigades |
| (TTB), MTMC Deployment Support Command (DSC), |
| MTMC-TEA, MTMCHQ and Army active/reserve |
| transportation units. |
| Known Problems | None. |
| DIICOE Compliance Rating | Version 3.x (3) Microsoft NT (5). |
