Project PurposeProject Purpose
Develop integrated architecture alternatives that will enable the Army to resource and execute the Army Strategy for the Environment (ASE) effectively and efficiently.
5Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
Project BackgroundProject Background
• Secretary of the Army and the Chief of Staff establish Army-wide Sustainability Policy with the initiation of the Army Strategy for the Environment (ASE) - signed October 1, 2004
• ASE Goals– Foster sustainability ethic as an Army value – Strengthen Army operational capability – Meet current and future training, testing, and other
mission requirements– Minimize impacts and total ownership costs – Enhance well-being – Use innovative technology

9Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
Requirements and Resource Requirements and Resource ProcessesProcesses
• Changes in Force Structure to meet the National Military Strategy and Defense Planning Guidance– Combat/Operational Effectiveness
assessed in terms of metrics such as force exchange ratios (function of lethality, vulnerability, range…)
– Strategic Mobility assessed in terms of metrics such as• Tons and cubic feet of throughput (inter
and intra- theater) over a period of time • Number of soldiers deployed over a period
of time
10Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
Requirements and Resource Requirements and Resource ProcessesProcesses
• Army Transformation
– Creates a modular Army that is “brigade based”, more responsive with increased rotational depth enabling joint and expeditionary capabilities
– A brigade anywhere in the world in 96 hours after lift-off, a division on the ground in 120 hours, five divisions in 30 days – this is strategic responsiveness
11Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
Requirements and Resource Requirements and Resource ProcessesProcesses
• Sustainment – Sustainment Requirements: from Training
Resource Model -TRM (measured in terms of miles & flying hours)
– Sustainment Costing: from Operating and Support Management Information System (OSMIS) which calculates costs to support sustainment requirements -- Army buys repairs and spares (NSN) to sustain weapon system (LIN)
• Environmental requirements are not directly derived from the Force Structure process.
12Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
Requirements and Resource Requirements and Resource ProcessesProcesses
PEGs and Prioritization
• MDEP proponents, SMEs, and as appropriate, representatives of commands and agencies participate in Program Evaluation Group (PEG) deliberations which review and prioritize resources to support key Army capabilities
• Each PEG builds an executable program.
• PEG process rank orders validated programs as input to overall POM 1-n list.

Findings
14Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
FindingsFindings(from interviews with HQDA and literature review)(from interviews with HQDA and literature review)
• ASE Goals regarded as most important:- Strengthen Army operational capability - Meet current and future training, testing, and other
mission requirements
• Environmental program resources should increase contributing to key Army goals.
Army Strategic GoalsI. Conduct Forcible EntryII. Mobilize the ArmyIII. Execute Prompt ResponseIV. Shape the Security EnvironmentV. Support Civil AuthoritiesVI. Sustain Land Dominance
15Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
FindingsFindings
• Those outside (and some inside) the Army environmental community are looking for tangible near-term successes from ASE implementation
• Army environmental community should focus on how the Army currently does business
• Implementation of ASE Goals will be difficult given the existing environmental requirements and resource processes in the Army
- Army environmental requirements come in late in the game.
- If environmental metrics and requirements are not in the process from the beginning (TRADOC) there is no way that they will be effectively addressed later
16Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
FindingsFindings
• Need better coding of environmental resources
• Need to clearly define environmental resources and sustainability resources
• When dollars migrate across PEGs (and MDEPs) they are difficult to track and manage
• The way to address environmental requirements is to link them to Integrated Logistics and Support (ILS) to ensure environmental concerns are integrated into checklist process
17Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
FindingsFindings
• Programs and tools exist that can be leveraged to support ASE goals of strengthening operational capability, increasing sustainability, and minimizing costs
− Installation Resource Evaluation Methodology (IREM) links installation and operational requirements with resource/environmental carrying capacities and costs (both inside and outside the fence) – model is being used in support of Army stationing
− OSMIS calculates sustainment costs for weapon systems - links acquisition and sustaining resources
18Sustain the Mission — Secure the Future
FindingsFindings
• Programs and tools exist (cont.)– Installation Sustainability Programs
exist that prioritize installation resources to sustain mission needs
– Army Compatible Use Buffers (ACUB) - land buffers minimize encroachment and increase training readiness (and share costs with NGO)
– Energy is key – e.g., portable Army photovoltaic systems are currently deployed overseas in theater (reducing logistic footprint by requiring less fuel and related items)

Issue: Sustainability vs. SustainmentIssue: Sustainability vs. Sustainment
Sustainment: (DoD) “the provision of personnel, logistic, and other support required to maintain and prolong operations or combat until successful accomplishment or revision of the mission or of the national objective.”
Sustainability (ASE): …simultaneously meeting current as well as future mission requirements worldwide, safeguarding human health, improves quality of life, and enhances the natural environment.
Sustainability (DoD): See military capability.
Military capability: (DoD) The ability to achieve a specified wartime objective (win a war or battle, destroy a target set). It includes four major components….a. force structure--Numbers, size, and composition of the units that comprise US defense forces; b. modernization--Technical sophistication of forces, units, weapon systems, and equipments. c. unit readiness--The ability to provide capabilities required by the combatant commanders to execute their assigned missions. This is derived from the ability of each unit to deliver the outputs for which it was designed. d. sustainability--The ability to maintain the necessary level and duration of operational activity to achieve military objectives. Sustainability is a function of providing for and maintaining those levels of ready forces, materiel, and consumables necessary to support military effort.
