7Mission Analysis for a Responsible Drawdown
- Intent Readiness Enterprise leverages the power
of the Materiel, Services and People Enterprises
to enhance RESET operations by - Synchronizing the reset of unit equipment (where,
who, how) in order to protect dwell, and ensure
readiness standards are met. - Synchronizing the delivery of all materiel (TPE,
LBE, Rear Det, Depot and Field Level Reset, New
Equipment) in order to protect 6-month dwell.) - Standardizing Information, Technologies and Tools
(ARFORGEN COP, Automated Reset Management Tool
(ARMT), etc) management tools used to support
ARFORGEN in order to support decision making. - Identifying friction points that preclude
effectiveness and efficiency (I.e., units not
aligned with readiness core enterprise and
multiple folks managing equipment). - Identifying Policy Changes in order to execute
new RESET model. - End State
- A refined RESET model executed by Core
Enterprises that enhances support to ARFORGEN
8Objectives
- Operationalizing the Enterprise approach will
facilitate E2E synchronization - Key to success is early identification of excess
materiel and clear, executable policy and
procedures. - HQDA wants to emphasize automated accountability
and visibility that provides Business
Intelligence (BI) for the Enterprise - AMC Mission to execute a responsible reset using
the full power of the Materiel Enterprise to
ensure a rapid return, redistribution, and combat
regeneration for the Army. - Supports all DA listed objectives.
9Specified Tasks
- HQDA will identify required modification to
policies and capabilities that are required to
ensure a Responsible Drawdown of equipment from
Iraq. - APS reconstitution plan to be developed by
G3/5/7AMC issue APS 2015 update must be part of
process - DA G-4 is reviewing property disposition
policies and will update as required. - DA will work with the ACOMs and AMC to
accelerate depot and field level reset and
optimize facilities to process increased
equipment and materiel flows.

12Discussion Points
FOUO/UNCLASSIFIED
- What will the Battle handover relationship with
ARCENT to Army look like? - Complimentary . . . not competing
- Do we want units to redeploy with MTOE items
only, ONS items and or TPE, or all? - Need to review APS 2015/OP Projects strategy
before responsible drawdown to fully leverage
reset. - Need strategy to reintegrate Non Programs of
Record and Non Standard Equipment . . . and
Document. - Need to baseline efforts to document results.
- Agree on scope of effort ALL commodities . . .
all equipment and supply classes. - Department of the Army Distribution priorities.
- FMS Priorities (CENTCOM).
- How soon?
