What Is DRRS?

• The next generation Readiness Reporting and
  Management System
• Capture Force readiness for COCOMS, CSAs, and
  deployable entities through METs and Resources
• Provide Global Visibility of Forces in support of
  Contingency Sourcing, and Adaptive Planning (AP)
• Enable Readiness system to Support Joint
  Capability Areas (JCAs)
• Support implementation of Request for Capability
  (RFC), Joint Task Force (JTF) readiness and COCOM
  Functional Area capability readiness management
• Integrates with future systems

Net-centric Interoperable Supportable

DRRS Represents a Shift in How DoD

• Thinks of readiness
• Synonymous with capabilityWhat can forces do?
• In the context of assigned missions
• Measures force status
• Focus on forces and missions
• Includes COCOMs, Joint, support, operational
  units, and Combat Support Agencies
• Assesses risk
• Uses collaborative tools linked to near-real time
  data
• Requires operational context What forces can and
  cannot do?

  missions
• Combatant Commanders Military Departments

Mission Essential Task Lists Used in DRRS

• Assess ability to perform METs to prescribed
  Standards and Conditions in the following
  categories
• Core Tasks
• Fundamental design capabilities of an
  organization
• Standardized for each unit type
• Drawn from Service task list (MCTL)
• METs Generated by Apportionment to Major War
  Plans
• As Assigned in the JSCP (Level 4 Plans Only).
• METs Generated by Named Missions
• Named Operations (OIF, OEF, SFOR, KFOR, etc.)
• Homeland Security Missions
• METLS developed and reported when unit prepared
  to deploy or provide gt25 of capability.

DRRS Challenges

• USMC Policy
• Under development. DoD policies are minimal.
  Joint policies do not exist
• Input tool under development
• Coordinated DIO/USMC effort is needed
• Good start with 25 Jul meetingsustain
• Emphasize coordination prior to releases
• DRRS access permissions for HQMC
• Cannot view or edit other units
• Authoritative Data Sources none ready for
  validation/testing
• USMC requested to confirm correct fields selected
  for MERIT, TFSMS, and MCTFS
• Access to Utilities Query Tool for analysis
• Business tools are not yet developed
• Cant report effectively on more than one unit at
  a time
• Cant archive data or export to
  Excel/Word/PowerPoint
• Installation reporting guidance
• Requirements??
• OSD involvement???
• POAM???
• Communication

Essential for DRRS to be the single readiness
reporting system
