Defense organizations face mounting pressure to deliver mission readiness amid growing complexity, aging fleets, and shifting contractual risk. This whitepaper explores how digital transformation and advanced operational software enable defense contractors to move from reactive maintenance to proactive, data-driven sustainment.  As Performance-Based Logistics (PBL) evolves into Contracting for Capability (CfC), defense partners must adopt technologies that unify asset visibility, predictive maintenance, and standardized processes. 

By leveraging Industrial AI, machine learning, and digital twins, organizations can achieve Total Asset Readiness®️—ensuring every asset is available, reliable, and mission-ready.  

What you’ll learn:  


  • How digital transformation is reshaping defense sustainment  
  • The three pillars of Total Asset Readiness®️
  • How predictive analytics and AI reduce downtime  
  • Real-world examples from BAE Systems, Saab and Lockheed Martin

Discover how IFS empowers defense organizations to enhance operational visibility and futureproof sustainment across air, land, sea, and space.
