KPMG Aperture: Advanced decision support for mission readiness

Data is a strategic military asset for modern warfighting—as important for mission readiness as any weapons system.

From the frontlines, across the chain of command, and through all support functions, the U.S. military must be data centric. Trusted intelligence is essential to make quicker and more informed decisions at speed that protect missions and lives. But a lack of integrated data and analytical solutions has been a challenge across the Department of Defense.
