US Army Rolls Out Soldier-Built Software for Airborne Training Records
The US Army has introduced a new software system designed to track airborne training and readiness across the force.
Called AirborneReady, the tool replaces decades-old paper logs, which were slow, prone to errors, and hard to audit, bringing real-time digital management to more than 355,000 soldiers.
The solution was developed by experts at the Army Software Factory in Texas and was adopted by the Virginia-based Army Training Information System (ATIS) for service-wide use.
The system is expected to streamline information tracking, cut administrative workload, provide reliable data access, and save more than 64,000 soldier hours annually by eliminating manual record-keeping.
“The newly implemented system significantly improves the efficiency and reliability of the airborne community,” said Master Sgt. Christopher Slone of the 18th Airborne Corps.
Lt. Col. John Nikiforakis, product manager at ATIS, added that the software’s development reflects a commitment to meeting the needs of soldiers and improving readiness across the community.
“This is a great example of how PEO Enterprise can help deliver soldier-centered software solutions.”
Supporting Modernization Goals
The AirborneReady project aligns with the Army Transformation Initiative, which aims to modernize the force by improving warfighting capabilities, optimizing structure, and eliminating outdated programs.
“The successful transition of AirborneReady from the Army Software Factory to ATIS marks more than just a technical handoff; it demonstrates a repeatable path for scaling soldier-driven innovations into sustained, enterprise-grade solutions,” the US Army said.
