Cybernet – The Company Ann Arbor, MI Orlando, Fl • 25 year Old Research/ Development/Production Company • 25 years of working with the U.S. military • 10+ yrs experience in developing ammunition logistics automation • Small business with 300+ successful government contracts
Increased Need/Decreased Resources Current budget realities dictate that logistics operations be performed cost effectively and that every dollar go farther. National Guard has become a critical asset to the Army in conducting combat operations. A return to training for full spectrum operations will increase the overall training requirement and maintain high rates of ammunition consumption.
ATACS/SBS ATACS sorts and inspects small caliber ammunition through an automated, standardized, high volume process. Ammunition can then be returned to soldiers for re-use. SBS is DDESB approved to separate live rounds from spent brass, greatly simplifying process of processing small caliber residue and increasing value of processed brass ($12 per pound as cases vs. less than $3 per pound as raw brass). Deployment Locations 25M 20M 10M Initial run 2M annual
Technology and Standardization Pays Big Dividends by “Bringing Cost Saving Technology to Ammunition Management” ATACS – Case Study ATACS provides a standardized inspection process that delivers a higher quality inspection than can be performed by human inspectors. Significant Labor Savings Financial Impact ATACS revolutionized a labor intensive process that had been virtually unchanged for over 50 years. Labor savings include: Camp Arifjan: Single machine operator replaced over 40 contractor personnel . Recent report highlights $20 million annual cost savings. Ft. Irwin: Single ATACS operator replaced over 10 soldiers. ATACS has produced tens of millions of dollars in labor savings since initial deployment. Arifjan $20M annual reclamation savings highlights this fact. ATACS has realized additional reclamation cost savings in the millions of dollars via improved quality of inspection with estimations of over $10M in reclamation savings. Savings related to ATACS deployment cover the cost of acquiring the unit within the first year of operation with future savings being all positive ROI . Spent Brass Sorter (SBS) derivative provides cost effective processing of spent cases and allows direct cost return to the government for the brass.
Demonstration Program Develop version of ATACS/SBS specifically to meet the needs of the National Guard. Larger ASPs can utilize standard ATACS and SBS systems, but a new smaller version is more applicable to smaller ASPs. Cybernet has worked to position a congressionally funded demonstration project to demonstrate the savings that the National Guard can realize by employing ATACS/SBS. Currently looking for National Guard partner to serve as case study.
