The DLA has utilized LaserCard's AMS cards and readers since the early 1990s, when the DOD introduced a new system to increase in-transit visibility, expedite receipt processing, prioritize container processing, facilitate discrepancy reporting, and provide a portable permanent record of transactions.

The system succeeded in resolving all in-transit identification problems while improving the processing, reporting and cost-effectiveness of the Army's global cargo identification procedures. The AMS system has won numerous awards, including the Vice Presidential "Golden Hammer Award" for cutting logistics costs by more than 67%.

On the tenth anniversary of the program, the optical media card was credited with "a failure rate of virtually zero" and was described by one veteran program manager as the most durable and reliable media seen in over 30 years of DOD logistics experience.
