Enhancing military readiness: How Trackable Health transforms personnel management with AWS GovCloud (US)
In the modern military, maintaining peak readiness is critical, as physical fitness can mean the difference between mission success or failure—and lives are at risk.
To promote peak readiness, military organizations face a complex challenge: how to effectively track and improve service members’ fitness while ensuring their personal data remains protected under strict Department of Defense (DoD) cybersecurity regulations. This is where Trackable Health’s innovative solution, hosted in AWS GovCloud (US-West), is transforming healthcare and readiness data management and utility to provide secure, compliant, and intelligent management of personnel and their health data.
Understanding the military fitness challenge
Military personnel operate in an environment where physical readiness can mean the difference between a mission’s success or failure. The stakes are high and lives are at risk. Military commanders need immediate access to unit readiness data, and individual service members require secure, private access to their personal fitness information. “The U.S. Air Force (USAF) and other DoD agencies face unique workloads and challenges that are unparalleled in the private sector,” said Greg Hayward, founder and CEO of Trackable Health AI. “While the personnel taking on these critical tasks appreciate support, they rarely ask for help directly. That’s why solutions like ours need to come from leadership down.”
Trackable Health’s revolutionary approach
By using the robust capabilities within AWS GovCloud, Trackable Health has developed a comprehensive trackable solution that addresses these challenges head-on. The platform delivers real-time health and fitness tracking and personalized readiness scores, providing immediate feedback and AI-powered recommendations for improvement. What sets this solution apart is its ability to maintain military-grade security while offering unprecedented accessibility.
“Trackable Health’s platform gives command a situational awareness of personnel metrics as aggregated data or individual profiles, baseline metrics over 30-day horizons, the metrics from the last update of their device, and a coordination of data from all of the device options, all in one portal,” Hayward shared.
Robust security and compliance: The foundation of trust
At the heart of Trackable Health’s solution is a robust security and compliance framework built on AWS GovCloud (US-West). The platform implements role-based access controls that align perfectly with military command structures, and automated compliance checks make sure that every data interaction meets DoD standards. Trackable Health’s solution protects all fitness data using Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 validated encryption endpoints, with comprehensive audit trails tracking every access attempt.
Trackable Health’s solution has achieved Impact Level (IL) 4 and IL 5 compliance through AWS GovCloud, representing a strong foundation for its security journey. The platform also implements Zero Trust Architecture, combined with automated compliance monitoring and reporting, to ensure service members’ data remains protected while staying instantly accessible to authorized personnel.
Transforming military fitness management
The real power of Trackable Health’s solution lies in its practical impact on military operations. Measuring fitness levels, sleep quality and duration, and heart rate variability (HRV) charting, 24/7/365 reporting could replace the need for current physical fitness assessments that are expensive to administer and can cause injury from overexertion from attempting to regain fitness levels in short timeframes. The platform maintains a monthly uptime percentage of at least 99.99 percent in terms of data availability, meaning that the USAF’s critical data is accessible when needed most.
Data sovereignty and security, powered by AWS GovCloud (US), provide the foundation for this transformation. All data remains stored and processed within US borders, managed exclusively by US citizens, with multi-Region redundancy providing mission-critical availability. Advanced threat detection and prevention systems work continually to maintain the integrity of the platform.
Looking to the future
Trackable Health is continuously evolving its platform to meet the military’s changing fitness requirements. Current development efforts focus on several key areas:
- Advancing AI capabilities for predictive readiness scoring
- Enhancing mobile capabilities for deployed personnel
- Gamifying participation to improve engagement and sustainability
- Expanding integrations with more devices and military health record systems
These innovations aim to provide even more comprehensive unit-level readiness assessment capabilities and reduce resistance to wearing devices and sharing data.
The platform’s success is reflected in its 92 percent user satisfaction rate and zero security incidents since implementation. These metrics demonstrate that with the right technology partner and infrastructure, it’s possible to transform military fitness tracking from a compliance challenge into a strategic advantage.
Conclusion
Through its partnership with AWS GovCloud (US), Trackable Health will revolutionize how the military approaches fitness, readiness, workload management, and employee benefits. By combining cutting-edge technology with rigorous security protocols, the platform delivers a solution that not only meets DoD requirements but also actively enhances force readiness of personnel. As military operations continue to evolve in an increasingly digital world, Trackable Health AI remains committed to innovating and improving how our service members maintain their readiness for whatever workloads and challenges they’re tasked with.
