• Setting the Force Goals
• Resourcing and Equipping Strategy
• Summary

A Changing Environment

• A Strategic Pause
• Short duration conflicts
• Take risk in current force beyond core essential
• Priority is Future Force transformation
• Enable accelerated, but deliberate change

POM 04-09

• An Army at War
• Current force totally engaged
• Meet pressing current needs while anticipating
  future ones
• Priority is urgent need to organize and train for
  conflict
• Achieve joint interdependency

CSAs Intent

• No unit will be Reset to the same configuration.
  
• Reset equipment left behind while the unit is
  deployed.
• Take a holistic view of Army maintenance
  capabilities, not a local view.
• Move out on modularity.
• Ensure Obligation Authority level stays ahead of
  execution -- do not let Reset stall.

6
Modularity

• Active Component changes
• 10 new Active Component BCTs.
• Conversion of existing BCTs to modular UA design.
• Conversion of all Divisions to UEx design.
• Incur OS costs for 10 new BCTs.
• SECDEF will make decision on 5 remaining BCTs in
  FY06.
• Endstate 43 BCTs and 10 UEx.
• RC changes
• Conversion of existing ARNG BCTs to modular UA
  design.
• Conversion of existing ARNG Divisions to UEx
  design.
• Endstate 34 BCTs and 8 UEx.
• The Army will accomplish this through a
  combination of supplementals, POM funding, and
  reprioritization of equipment, personnel, etc
  already funded in the Army program.

Example

• BEFORE
• Division Centric
• 3 Brigades
• Enablers held at Division
• Inadequate Joint Connectivity
• Limited reconnaissance, intelligence,
  surveillance and target acquisition

• AFTER
• Brigade Centric
• 4 Modular BCTs
• Enablers embedded
• Joint Connectivity
• Robust reconnaissance, intelligence, surveillance
  and target acquisition (3X)

Setting the Force

• A Senior Leader Process.
• A forum to integrate and synchronize DOTLMPF to
  support the ACP.
• Focus is strategy and plans to provide solutions
  to equipment requirements.
• Synchronized to support other senior leadership
  decision processes.
• A partnership among the ARSTAFF, Reserve
  Components, and MACOMs.

• Mechanized Infantry (heavy)
• Cavalry (heavy)
• Light Infantry (light)
• Airborne Infantry (light)
• Air Assault Infantry (light)
• Medium (Composite)

Resourcing and Equipping Strategy
INFORMED BY ASPB, FEASABILITY REVIEW, AND RESET
THE FORCE GOSC DECISONS

• Resources consistent with HQDA priorities
• GWOT / ONS
• TRADOC
• Modularity
• Reset The Force
• Overarching guidelines
• Cross level internally
• Use available excess equipment external to the
  transforming units (including
• pre-positioned sets and depot stocks)
• Consider in lieu of equipment where the
  required capability can be met,
• either temporarily or permanently
• Refurbish equipment
• New procurement

• Things were working hard
• Trucks
• SINCGARS
• Crew served weapons

Summary

• Our environment has changed so the Army is
  becoming more Expeditionary.
• Modularity is the way we will change.
• Setting the Force covers a broad spectrum of
  events to integrate and synchronize the ACP.
• Shortages require cascading throughout the force.
