Missionforce National Security has replaced legacy ERP silos with a unified, interoperable platform to streamline logistics, reduce downtime, and increase readiness for the Air Force's global 100,000-vehicle fleet.

The news underscores Missionforce National Security’s growing DoW momentum, building on a new $72M Air Force ELA and recent $5.6B Army IDIQ to scale innovation across the U.S. Armed Forces.

SAN FRANCISCO & WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Salesforce (NYSE: CRM), the #1 AI CRM, today announced that the U.S. Air Force 441st Vehicle Support Chain Operations Squadron (VSCOS) is now using Missionforce National Security to manage its $13.5 billion fleet of over 84,000 vehicles across nearly 389 locations.

VSCOS manages the Air Force's vehicle fleet, helping ensure global mission readiness. Faced with the sunsetting of its legacy fleet management system, the 85-person squadron needed a scalable, IL5-authorized platform capable of overseeing these assets and supporting over 7,300 personnel without mission downtime.

“The 441st VSCOS is a masterclass in how a lean, mission-focused team paired with Salesforce can drive real global impact. By consolidating onto a single, interoperable platform with Missionforce National Security, the Air Force has turned fragmented logistics operations into a strategic advantage. This is delivering improved visibility for commanders, reduced service downtime, and helping ensure vehicles are ready to roll when the call comes,” said Kendall Collins, CEO of Missionforce and Government Cloud at Salesforce.

Through Missionforce National Security, VSCOS deployed a suite of IL5-approved, purpose-built, mission-ready applications on Salesforce Government Cloud Plus Defense to manage the USAF’s vehicle fleet. This unified digital backbone turns complex global logistics into more streamlined, manageable workflows:

The Air Force now has a real-time mission view with enterprise-level management and distribution capabilities to support global mission needs. Driving speed, data accuracy, and mission readiness, Missionforce National Security has empowered VSCOS to:

The migration to Salesforce has established a clean, unified data foundation, preparing VSCOS for future AI integrations. The squadron is already exploring AI use cases to automate manual data entry into systems of record, validate VINs, and evaluate vehicle sensor data to predict maintenance needs.

“We made a strategic bet on the future of national security by aligning the right people, processes, and technology to scale with the DoW and the Intelligence Community. This work with the USAF is a culmination of that foresight, delivering the digital superiority and multi-tenant scale required to meet operational demands. With a unified view, our customers can perform critical national security tasks with the visibility, coordination, and operational control needed to move at mission speed – helping to ensure our warfighters and intelligence officers maintain decision advantage” – said Bill Pessin, SVP of National Security at Salesforce.
