520 |a Today's defense environment is particularly challenging because (1) significant portions of the force are continuously engaged in a variety of operations, ranging from active combat to humanitarian assistance, over wide geographical areas where the needs for force projection are often difficult to predict, and (2) there is increasing pressure to operate more efficiently. And, although there has always been the need to relate combat support resource requirements to operational objectives, today's environment requires quick combat support actions to tailor deployable support packages and sustainment actions to meet specific operational needs. Furthermore, economic pressures are likely to continue and could result in further reductions in resources that are set aside to meet contingency operations. In addition to economic pressures, the inability to perfectly predict resource demands, the need to shift funding from one category to another to meet unanticipated needs, and the occurrence of unanticipated world events that require intervention contribute to having imbalances between needed agile combat support (ACS) resources and those that are available at any given time to simultaneously meet all requirements for contingency and training operations. This monograph describes ACS process gaps and recommends implementation strategies to facilitate changes needed to improve Air Force command and control through enhanced ACS planning, execution, monitoring, and control processes. The authors recommend a standardized, repeatable process to plan, execute, and control combat support activities focused on operationally relevant metrics; reliance on global managers to identify enterprise capabilities and constraints and relay them to component numbered Air Force staffs for use in their contingency planning and execution actions; and processes for determining which combatant commanders' operations will have priority.
