What is DTMS?

DTMS is the authorized automated system for managing training in Army units

COTS from nFocus Software Microsoft compatible User Friendly DTMS is a web-based unit training management tool for Commanders and leaders at all echelons developed in accordance with the Army’s principles of training as discussed in FM 7.0 and 7.1. Army Training and Leader Development Model “How the Army Trains the Army” FM 7.0 DTMS COTS from nFocus Software Microsoft compatible User Friendly

Why is DTMS important to the Army? Provides “one stop shopping” for training View/edit Mission/METL Schedule events/training to Long-Range Calendars, Short-Range Calendars, and training schedules Schools allocation Maintains Soldier information on everything from APFT/Profile/Height-Weight History to past/current training. When the information is entered into DTMS, it stays with the soldier when he/she PCSs.

DTMS, as a user management tool, supports improving the Army’s unit training management practices by: Assisting unit commanders with unit training on METL tasks while enabling senior commanders to reinforce training by approving and protecting training priorities and providing resources. Assisting Army training managers to focus training on mission requirements to applicable Army standards while providing assessment of current levels of proficiency from any location with access to the internet. Facilitating unit management by providing direct digital access to collective, individual, Army Warrior tasks, mandatory tasks, and CATS; as well as providing higher headquarters access to roll up training progress statistics. Focusing functionalities at the Bde S3 / BN S3, BN / Co Cdr, and the CSM / 1SG / unit training NCO while supporting visibility of training throughout the chain of command.

DTMS Interface Requirements with other Army systems

The digital nature of DTMS technology facilitates interfacing with other Army systems to: Improve access to relevant information (i.e. training guidance or current lessons learned). Provide higher headquarters direct access to information generated by subordinate units. Allow headquarters flexibility to download information for unique analytical and display needs. Allow near real-time dissemination of relevant and accurate training information. Improve tracking of soldier training progress and digitally pass training records to the gaining unit upon reassignment. Share data rather than create new data sources and increase unit input requirements. Disseminate selected data such as the display of soldier APFT, weapons qualification, mandatory training, and unit training schedule to AKO.

Task: Interface DTMS with other Army systems Purpose: Provide true “System of Systems” to the Soldier/Unit rather than the collection of independent systems currently available.

DTMS continues to push forward in the development of interfaces with other systems, to include: Army Training Tracking and Resourcing System (ATTRS) provide unit leadership each Soldier’s school history and visibility on current enrollment. Army Training Information Architecture/ Training Developers and Doctrine Tool (ATIA/TDDT) provide Soldiers the most recent approved collective/individual task and provide input to training developers directly from units. Range Facilities Management Support System (RFMSS) via AKO single-user sign-on allow units to coordinate ranges and facilities ‘on the fly’ concurrently with training planning. Training Ammunition Management Information System-Redesigned (TAMIS-R) provide units the ability to see current ammunition allocation and expenditures. Web Based Total Army Authorization Document System (WEBTAADS) incorporate unit TOE/MTOE/TDA information to provide units the capability to manage Soldier qualification by position and refine planning and resources for unit training. ARFORGEN Synchronization Tool (AST) FORSCOM tool to integrate and manage force generation for the Army, DTMS will provide unit training status and allow commanders to update progress as they progress through each force pool and as they accomplish directed and mandatory training/events for each phase. Deployment and Reconstitution Tracking System (DARTS) provide commanders visibility of unit preparations for deployment and return to home station from a deployment.

DTMS FUTURE

What does the Army have planned for the future? DTMS functionality/requirements are continually identified, reviewed, and managed by a DA G3-chartered Requirements Control Board (RCB) with representatives from Field MACOMs and Corps/Division Action Officers. The RCB meets quarterly to continue refinement and development of DTMS. DTMS is continuing to be enhanced to meet all RC functional requirements.
