Installation Management Institute January 2007

1. Installation Management InstituteJanuary 2007 PART 3- THE FORCE This part of the workbook looks at the Army Stationing and Installation Plan (ASIP), which is the basis for the Force component of the Master Planning Formula. The ASIP is, however, only the starting place for the Force. The determination of the Force must consider population, demographics, force structure and missions. This section also addresses the TAB management process step of validating and reconciling the Force/ ASIP. It introduces key steps for recognizing and accounting for changes in the ASIP that may have significant impacts on the TAB.This part of the workbook looks at the Army Stationing and Installation Plan (ASIP), which is the basis for the Force component of the Master Planning Formula.

2. Installation Workbook Organization The installation workbook is organized into six sections General Reference (Tabs 1 – 3) ASIP Information (Tabs 4 – 8) TAB/Requirements (Tabs 9 – 11) Assets (Tabs 12 – 15) Supporting Information (Tabs 16 – 19) Target FCGs (Tabs 20 and following)

3. Installation Workbook ASIP Information Tab 4 – Seven Year Summary Tab 5 – ASIP Version Comparison Tab 6 – Current ASIP Population Changes Tab 7 – Installation ASIP Tab 7A: By UIC Tab 7B: By HQ Group Tab 7C: By Major Unit Tab 8 – Unit Profile The ASIP information is important because the Force defines the requirements and the ASIP is a critical factor in defining the Force. Remember the Force has four components: population, demographics, force structure and missions. Couple this with the fact that Force is dynamic and it becomes very important to pin down the precise population in terms of people and units/organizations that are being supported at a particular place at a particular time. The ASIP section of the workbook does this both in quantitative terms and comparative terms. It helps identify change, discrepancies from the expected norm and specific organizational elements that make up the supported population. Almost everyone in the ASIP is using some type of space somewhere. The key to understanding the impact of the ASIP is knowing how RPLANS views different types of UICs, and how this impacts allowances.The ASIP information is important because the Force defines the requirements and the ASIP is a critical factor in defining the Force.

4. The Formula -The Force The Force consists of the units/organizations, including their personnel, equipment and missions, that must be supported with infrastructure both individually and collectively at a particular place. The Force consists of the units/ organizations, including their personnel, equipment and missions, that must be supported with infrastructure both individually and collectively at a particular place. As you will see, the Force is not a number, but an approach to analysis. While it is set in concrete data such as troop lists and equipment it is more than that. The Force is the focus of the TAB. If there was no force there would be no requirements. Consequently, to prepare a TAB it is essential to understand as much as possible about the units, organizations and missions that are being supported. And to understand the force it is necessary to understand the data sources that are used to generate the Force.

5. Components of the Force In the formula, The Force is defined by four major components either singly or in combination with each other: Population (counts units and people) Demographics (describes people) Force Structure (describes units) Missions (what units/organizations do) Master Planning Process – Verify and Reconcile Supporting Data – Verify and Reconcile the ASIP Installation Workbook TABs 4 - 8 In the introduction we said we would talk about the formula, a process and a technique. This slide shows where we are in each of those three area.In the introduction we said we would talk about the formula, a process and a technique.

6. The Process Coarse Screen Verify/reconcile supporting data ASIP Assets Organize the force the way you manage it Prepare installation and unit profiles Installation profiles look at FCGs Unit profiles look at organizations Determine/Validate requirements Analyze facility status Update requirements Confirm results There is a cliché’ related to computers: “garbage in, garbage out.” The TAB is no better than the data that feeds it, and before going to great lengths to determine requirements it is important to make sure the data being used is as current and correct as possible. In this section we will talk about verifying the ASIP in the broader context of how it is used to support the TAB.There is a cliché’ related to computers: “garbage in, garbage out.” The TAB is no better than the data that feeds it, and before going to great lengths to determine requirements it is important to make sure the data being used is as current and correct as possible.

7. Data Sources for The Force As stated earlier the variable in the formula known as “The Force” is defined by four major components either singly or in combination with each other: Population (counts units and people) Demographics (describes people) Force Structure (describes units) Missions (what units/organizations do) As will become clear later, the Force is also defined, in part, by policy, but before the policy can be applied the populations to which it is applied must be defined. Therefore, when we refer to the Force we initially mean the people, units and organizations, their equipment and their missions that must be supported by facilities. Once that is defined we can apply the policy and criteria to the Force that determines the eligible populations for specific facility categories.As stated earlier the variable in the formula known as “The Force” is defined by four major components either singly or in combination with each other: Population (counts units and people) Demographics (describes people) Force Structure (describes units) Missions (what units/organizations do) As will become clear later, the Force is also defined, in part, by policy, but before the policy can be applied the populations to which it is applied must be defined.

8. The ASIP and The Force The primary source of information about the Force comes from the Army Stationing and Installation Plan, or ASIP. The purpose of the ASIP is to account for everyone who works for the Army everywhere in the world regardless of whether or not they are on an Army base, and to account for everyone who works on Army bases on installations regardless of whether they work for the Army. The ASIP breaks the population out into military, direct hire (USD) civilians and other civilians. The military is broken out by officer, warrant officer and enlisted. It also distinguishes between active component, national guard, army reserve, students and other sub-categories of military personnel at UIC level. The Abbreviation USD stands for U.S. Direct Hire. This category includes all employees of the federal government who are U.S. citizens hired with appropriated funds. All civilian personnel not meeting these criteria are counted as Other Civilians. Non-Appropriated Fund civilians, Local Nationals filling positions in TDA and TDA Augmentations to MTOE in foreign countries, and State and Local Government employees are counted as Other Civilians (source for this paragraph is ASIP Help). The ASIP draws the information about Army units and organizations from a variety of Army systems such as the Structure and Manpower Allocation System, or SAMAS, the Army Automated Documentation System (TAADS) and the Army Training Resource Requirements System (ATRRS). Data derived from these sources, if incorrect, must be corrected in the source system before the corrections appear in the ASIP. A discussion of these systems is available in the general help section of the WEB version of the ASIP. Data on Tenants Other Than Army (TOTA) including DOD and other services is derived from installation input and is only changed or updated if the installation takes the initiative. When it is incorrect it can have a significant impact on overall allowances.The primary source of information about the Force comes from the Army Stationing and Installation Plan, or ASIP.

9. The ASIP and UICs Army UICs come from SAMAS, TAADS or ATRRS Army UICs consist of six characters and begin with the letter “W” except for student populations, which start with the letter “I” UICS for other services begin with: Air Force “A”, Marine Corps “M”, Navy “N”, Coast Guard “C” and DOD “D” Other conventions $6BM01 – Commercial Activity (Travel Office) @6BM01 – Contractor supporting (Elevator Maintenance) !6BM01 – Other Agency (DOD Agency) #1FB01 – Other Activities (Red Cross) A key to understanding the ASIP is understanding the unit identification codes, or UICs, used to designate each unit and organization in the ASIP. At the most basic level a UIC is defined as “… (a) six-character, alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies each Active, Reserve, and National Guard unit of the Armed Forces. Also called UIC.” (Source DOD Dictionary of terms available on the world wide web at http://www.dtic.mil/doctrine/jel/doddict). Army UICs begin with the letter “W”., Air Force with “A”, Navy with “N”, Marine Corps with “M”, Coast Guard with “C” and OD with “D”. Note that the Air Force often uses (or at least provides) four digit UICs, and generally does not use the term UIC to describe the code. Student UICs begin with the letter “I” and are traceable to ATRRS. The ASIP has developed conventions for documenting other organizations at an installation to lend consistency to the process. Note that services of TOTA, are invisible to Army systems such as SAMAS, TAADS and, for the most part, ATRRS. Installations have to identify these activities and report them upward through the ASIP update process. The Army & Air Force Exchange Service should use their assigned UIC which is a six digit numeric code referred to as the ‘Store Code’ within AAFES.

10. The ASIP and UICs The Army never uses the letters “I” or “O” in UICs except for using “I” as the first character in student UICs. This is to avoid confusion with “1” and “0”.(ARNG FTS/AGR may have “O”) All UICs with the same first four characters are related: W(#)XXAA is a TDA parent W(letter)XXAA is a TOE parent W(letter)XX99 is an augmentation TDA to the related TOE When looking at a UIC, remember that the letters “I” and “O” are not used EXCEPT for student UICs in which “I” is the letter used in the first position of the UIC. Anything that looks like an “I” or an “O” is really a “1” or a “0”. Each UIC is uniquely identified with a single station code. By definition a UIC cannot be at more than one location. If a unit is spread over multiple locations, the ASIP establishes conventions for creating UICs that indicate the type of organization being documented and any associations they have with Army organizations in the ASIP. This principle is applied to creating UICs for other organizations. For example the UIC @6CB01 indicates a contractor associated with W6CBAA.

11. Parent/Child Relationships in the ASIP on the World Wide Web The ASIP has a parent/child (P/C) button that shows all related UICs. Note, however, that this does not link contractors, etc., with the UIC in question. We’ll discuss how to make these linkages for the purpose of the TAB in Part 6 (Other Information) of the workshop workbook. The ASIP has a parent/child (P/C) button that shows all related UICs.

12. The ASIP on the WEB Register for password https://asip.hqda.pentagon.mil/pls/asip/intro.login Requires region approval Filling out registration page initiates the approval process Demonstration The ASIP has two sections. Current ASIP and historic ASIP. The historic ASIP can be useful if researching the background on units and documenting change. Log on to the ASIP and try a few simple exercises. The trial defense council at Fort Drum is represented by UIC W0KE84. Where is the parent UIC located? What was the strength of HHB, DIV ARTY, LT IN (WD83AA) in 2005 in the 2000 ASIP? How many people are authorized in the 10th MTN DIV, HHC? The ASIP has two sections. Current ASIP and historic ASIP.

13. Navigating the ASIP This picture is a snapshot of the main menu in the ASIP. Note that there are many different ways of getting to the data. At the installation level it will normally be most useful to go into the ASIP either by location or by unit. Note that there is a current and historical TAB.

14. Navigating the ASIP by UIC If you know something about the unit like a part of its UIC or its unit number you can search by that information. You only need to enter one character in a field to begin a search, but the more information you provide the more focused the results of the search. If you are looking for all the pieces of a unit and are entering UIC data don’t enter more than the first four characters.If you know something about the unit like a part of its UIC or its unit number you can search by that information.

17. FPS and The Force The Facility Planning System (FPS) provides a wealth of information about Army Table of Organization and Equipment (TOE) and Table of Distribution and Allowances (TDA) units and organizations. TOEs used by FPS are Objective TOES; that is the doctrinally approved documents on which authorization documents, called modified tables of organization and equipment or MTOEs are based. Later we will see how to determine if there are significant differences between MTOEs and OTOEs, but normally they are fairly close to each other. FPS uses the OTOE because it reflects known modernization in equipment or force structure that could impact future requirements. The TOE is a template for building units and it is possible for many units in the Army to be organized under a single TOE. In order to gather information on a unit it is necessary to know the SRC associated with a UIC. TDA data contains both authorized and required strength. Analysis is performed on the authorized strength. Each TDA is unique and can be found in FPS by using the UIC.The Facility Planning System (FPS) provides a wealth of information about Army Table of Organization and Equipment (TOE) and Table of Distribution and Allowances (TDA) units and organizations.

It helps you when you to know what to expect before you to visit a unit or organization. Note that the equipment list can be “trimmed” to “Major Equipment and Weapons” or all equipment. Major equipment and weapons generally includes anything that consumes fuel or launches bullets. Personnel lists include an indication of the type of space FPS thinks each paragraph needs to perform its missions. Unit allowances look at data that is embedded in TOEs and TDAs. It is best to group all of the organizations that share space into a group for analysis such as the 4/10 HBCT and its augmentation.

19. DEERS and The Force The Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) is used by the ASIP to determine supported populations in the outlying communities. These are generally “below the line” numbers that are not additive into installation strength, but can be used by installations to better understand the populations they serve. The direct impact of DEERS is in the calculation of unaccompanied personnel rates.

20. RPLANS and The Force RPLANS aggregates and integrates data from the various sources to calculate eligible populations, identify relevant mission factors, tabulate eligible units and create factors required as variables in algorithms. RPLANS uses TDA types to help define the types of facilities for which units receive allowances. This is particularly important for UICs that are non-Army.

21. DEERS Impacton the Force Run: References/General Installation Information/Installation UPH Rates References/TDA Unit Information/TDA Grade Distribution References/TOE Unit Information/SRC Grade Distribution DEERS provides the number of married soldiers by grade at the zip code of the installation. It classifies military personnel as married, single with dependents, single and soldiers married to other soldiers. Only single soldiers are used to determine UPH rates. Rates are calculated at installation, so the rates applied to units for calculating barracks allowances. These three reports help demonstrate how this is done. The point to be taken from this is that the allowances at UIC level need to be tempered with experience.DEERS provides the number of married soldiers by grade at the zip code of the installation.

22. The Variable Force As noted earlier the “Force” is not a single number like 32,198. After getting a variety of data from a variety of sources RPLANS looks at the criteria for each facility category and applies that criteria to the available data to determine the eligible population. This slide shows how this produces a different number of people or designates a particular type of unit for each different FCG. So while we may refer to the ASIP troop list as the “Force”, RPLANS further refines this data in the allowance generation process.As noted earlier the “Force” is not a single number like 32,198.

23. The ProcessVerify/Reconcile Source Data – ASIP Identify changes from last ASIP to current ASIP (TAB 5) Identify changes between first and last year of current ASIP (TAB 6) Identify units in the ASIP not on the installation Identify units on the installation not in the ASIP Identify differences between ASIP units and RPLANS assumptions (TAB 8) This brings us to the TAB management process and the step “Verify and Reconcile ASIP Data.” To do this, there are at least five things we want to know: How has the current ASIP changed from the previous ASIP? This is addressed in TAB 5 in the installation workbook. How does the current ASIP change over the seven year look that it contains? TAB 6 addresses this step. Are there units in the ASIP that are not on the installation? There isn’t a single report that answers that question. As we proceed you will see a couple of different opportunities to work on this. Are there units on the installation that are not in the ASIP? Like the previous question this cannot be answered by running a report. It is the result of old fashioned detective work. Hopefully between real property assignments, space management and the ASIP coordinator you know who is on your post, but tenants aren’t always very good about telling you when they share space with outsiders. Finally, how do you identify the difference between the units in the ASIP and the RPLANS assumptions? TAB 8 helps with this step.This brings us to the TAB management process and the step “Verify and Reconcile ASIP Data.” To do this, there are at least five things we want to know: How has the current ASIP changed from the previous ASIP?

24. ASIP Updates Updated annually (twice annually the last few cycles) Normal window is February to May Actual timeframe depends on Region Brief review window in August Know the ASIP POC and provide known issues in writing/email The ASIP is updated annually. It generally is locked in August or early September. But the field review runs earlier in the calendar year. Installations that have concerns about the ASIP need to be working those issues in late winter and early spring. The ISR can provide an opportunity to update ASIP data. The ASIP web site also has sample forms for gathering ASIP information from Army and non-Army tenants. A sample of these is included in the back of this section of the workshop workbook.The ASIP is updated annually. It generally is locked in August or early September.

26. Reports / Installation ASIP / Seven Years A primary purpose of a TAB update is to manage change and its expected impacts on facility requirements. One of the principle challenges in TAB management is recognizing what change has occurred. Tab 4 in the installation workbook gives a year by year comparison in the ASIP total strength, showing what population changes occur during the seven years covered by the ASIP. It provides both tabular and graphic data. A “no change” picture doesn’t mean there isn’t movement within the ASIP, only that the total population does not vary significantly. This indicates that population based algorithms shouldn’t change significantly over the course of the ASIP years.

TAB 4 Steps: Installation ASIP/ Seven Years/ Select Installation/ Run NOTE: There are multiple sheets in this TAB. Students are included in the Total.

27. Reports / Installation ASIP / ASIP Versions Comparison The next level of change relates to changing versions of the ASIP. The ASIP is updated annually and is normally released in August or September. The annual ASIP update is reflected in the RPLANS winter update, with HQRPLANS usually released during the first or second week of December. Tab 5 gives a comparison of the current ASIP data that is used by RPLANS with ASIP data that was contained in the previous version of RPLANS. ASIP data normally will only change during the winter RPLANS update. The report has three parts. The first part shows a line by line comparison of the UICs and their strength plus any change in strength between the two ASIP versions. The second part shows all UICs that were in the old ASIP that are not included in the current ASIP. The third part shows all UICs that are in the current ASIP that were not in the previous version of the ASIP.

28. Reports / Installation ASIP / Current ASIP Population Changes The third level of change is the change that occurs over the seven year life of the ASIP. Tab 4 gives this information at the macro level. This Tab provides the information at UIC level. Like the ASIP versions comparison report, this report has three parts. The first part gives a line by line comparison of UICs that are present in the first year of the ASIP with the UICs that are in the last year of the ASIP. Like the versions comparison report, it shows the authorized strength and the difference. If the difference between the first and last year is greater than 10%, the UIC probably warrants a closer look during the TAB update process. The second part of the report shows all UICs that are in the first year of the ASIP but not the last and the year that each appears in the ASIP for the last time. These normally show zero strength since the ASIP reports the year end strength and most units have an authorized strength of zero the at the end of the year in which they go away. The third part shows all UICs that are in the ASIP in the last year that were not in the ASIP the first year. It also gives the year that the UIC first appears in the ASIP.

29. Reports / Installation ASIP / by UIC Tab 7 provides a list of UICs that are in the ASIP. Three different versions of this report are normally included. The order in which they are inserted depends on the preferences of the primary user of the book. Normally the first report will be the installation ASIP by UIC. It gives all UICs in the ASIP in alpha-numeric order along with the authorized strength broken out by military (divided between officer, warrant officer and enlisted) and civilian (broken out by US civilians and other civilians). The other two reports are the Installation ASIP by HQGROUP and the Installation ASIP by Major Unit. There may be as many as four parts in this report for each year selected. The UICs are broken down into active component UICs (referred to as Compo 1), Army National Guard (ARNG) UICs (referred to as Compo 2) and Army Reserve (USAR) UICs (referred to as Compo 3). Additionally, many installations have a part referred to as the ARRM training load. It provides a list of ARNG and USAR units by UIC that are allocated to the installation for the purposes of forecasting range and training land requirements. The ARRM list influences only range and training allowances.

30. Reports / Installation ASIP / by UIC (HQGROUPS) The Installation ASIP by HQGROUP provides a list in UIC order for each station code reflected in the Installation Composition Report (Tab 1). To run this report change the Installation Type on the select installations dialog from “HQRPLANS” to “HQGROUPS.” Then select the parent (un-indented) installation to automatically select all of the pieces. This report is especially important in working with installations outside the continental United States since they are frequently configured with multiple INSNOs that are not contiguous. This report gives visibility as to which populations are located at which INSNOs within the larger installation. For example, Pohakaloa Training Area, which is on the island of Hawaii, is part of Schofield Barracks, which is located on the island of Oahu.

31. Reports / Unit ASIP / Unit Profile The final ASIP related report is the Unit Profile report. This report compares the authorized strength (referred to as MTOE or modified table of organization and equipment) with the objective (OTOE) strength used by FPS to pre-calculate allowances for unit facilities. This report should be run for all UICs that qualify (the selection list only allows users to select UICs that meet the criteria), including reserve component UICs. The report is another tool in deciding which units need closer scrutiny. A deviation of more than 10% between the OTOE and MTOE strength of a unit is an indication that the unit may need special attention during the TAB update process.
