significant experience migrating ERP systems to the cloud to help
the Air Force achieve greater value.”
Accenture brings vast private-and public-sector experience with
complex ERP systems integration, including the Air Force Defense
Enterprise Accounting and Management System (DEAMS) program and its
new personnel payroll system.
Susan Lawrence, deputy director of Accenture Federal Services’
Defense Sector portfolio said, “this contract demonstrates the
commitment to modernize Air Force business practices and provide
enhanced support for today's service members and their families.
We’re honored to help the Air Force incorporate innovative
