Puckboard, a real-time collaborative flight scheduling platform developed by a mixed team of RVCM and TRON (RevaTRON), that takes crew conflicts and constraints into consideration to streamline the squadron scheduling problem.
The 15th Wing at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam and the 437th Wing at Joint Base Charleston did not always have Puckboard.
These two organizations faced a challenge with their flight scheduling systems, relying on manual methods of physically moving "pucks" on a whiteboard. This outdated process caused frustration for aircrew members and had a negative impact on the overall culture. Furthermore, traditional application development took over four years, rendering the system obsolete by the time it was implemented.
Enter Puckboard, a real-time collaborative flight scheduling platform developed by a mixed team of RVCM and TRON (RevaTRON), that takes crew conflicts and constraints into consideration to streamline the squadron scheduling problem. It is available worldwide to service members using any device that has an internet connection and is built to be responsive and intuitive on any browser or device, including electronic flight bags, simplifying the scheduling problem drastically.
Additionally, Puckboard was the first application to receive Continuous Authority to Operate (cATO) under Platform One’s IL4 environment.
Puckboard continuously receives additions and improvements. In the near term, Puckboard will continue to expand its support to other Airframes and non-scheduling units to allow broader scheduling use and integrations throughout the DoD. Come 2024, RVCM plans to transition Puckboard to Program Executive Office - Digital; to facilitate this transition, RVCM will continue to maintain Puckboard’s cATO accreditation.
The future of batCAVE looks bright as CMS continues to invest in cutting-edge technology to meet the evolving needs of healthcare. The batCAVE platform has already proven to be a powerful tool for streamlining software development efforts, enabling compliance, and improving security measures.

In September 2019, RVCM and TRON formed the TRON software factory (herinafter referred to as the DevLab). As part of TRON, RVCM partnered daily with Airmen to co-develop and deploy the Puckboard application onto Platform One.
