Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document contains the final report of the DSB Task Force on Readiness. The report focuses on the Department's readiness management and oversight processes, especially key indicators for measuring readiness and candidate methodologies for providing early warning of potential readiness problem and on other matters affecting individual and collective readiness. The Task Force did not look in detail into acquisition, technology, or industrial base issues related to readiness; the adequacy of forces to carry out the Bottom-Up Review; or nuclear forces strategy and requirements. The Task Force concluded that although there are some downward indicators, the general readiness posture of today's conventional and unconventional forces is acceptable in most measurable areas. However, the Task Force reported that is observed enough concerns that they were convinced that unless the Department of Defense and the Congress focus on readiness, the armed forces could slip into a 'hollow' status. For analytical purposes, the Task Force divided readiness into three levels: unit, joint (and combined) force, and national. The Task Force found that there currently exists a well-defined reporting system to evaluate the current readiness of combat and support units. It found the Department's systems for predicting future unit readiness significantly less mature and less comprehensive. The Task Force determined that the Department has neither a clear definition of joint readiness nor of a system to measure it. At the highest level, national readiness is important to ensure that our forces have sufficient readiness to carry out our National Military Strategy. The Task Force deferred judgment on this level of readiness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the final report of the Defense Science Board Task Force on Simulation, Readiness and Prototyping. The report is a detailed, user friendly document designed for the uninitiated and the informed alike. The main body of the report consists of the unabridged briefing viewgraphs with explanatory facing text. Attached to the main body of the report are three (3) appendices. Appendix A is the result of a very extensive evaluation by the Task Force panel on technology assessment evaluating current and projected technologies associated with Advanced Distributed Simulation (ADS). The broadening scope of applications for modeling and simulation in the Department of Defense is driving a widening range of technologies. The scope of applications for modeling and simulation include requirements definition and analysis, virtual prototyping, program planning, engineering design and manufacturing, test and evaluation, and training and readiness. The approach taken by the technology assessment panel was to develop a hierarchy of enabling technologies and to segregate them into two categories--those which are primarily commercially driven and those which are primarily driven by DoD. Some enabling technology areas fall into middle area in which both commercial industry and DoD are investing. The achievement of the following two objectives is of great importance to the DoD: (1) to correctly identify the key enabling technology areas which DoD must follow and invest in, and (2) to assess the maturity and to estimate the on-going investment activity for each technology area.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second 21st century Defense Science Board report on military training. The report itself has a training goal: instruct and convince the acquisition and personnel communities to recognize instinctively that (1) military proficiency is as dependent on the warriors who operate weapon systems as it is on the weapon system technology, and (2) a superb way to waste personnel or system acquisition money is to ignore training, or to tacitly allow training to pay the bills for acquisition or personnel system flaws in those more measurable arenas. Achieving this goal may take some time. Our first in 2001. Some of our recommendations have been implemented. Most have not. We will present a report card on their implementation in the executive summary. Nevertheless, either because of or in spite of our first report, there seems to be an increase in general awareness of the importance of training to warfare proficiency within the training communities. Less awareness exists outside them. The task force work described in this report is aimed at determining how our forces must prepare for conflicts in the future, 10 to 20 years from now.

Although they did not actively participate in the deliberations leading to it's recommendations, their service as Counselors indicates their awareness of the importance of Quality of Life issues to the readiness and well being of our Armed Forces. Their willingness to offer suggestions and advice on topics within their respective expertise was most helpful The recommendations of the Report are those of the Quality of Life Task Force; and Counselors may, or may not, concur in whole or in part with them.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2This DSB study is one of several reviews that resulted from the killings that took place on November 5, 2009 at the Fort Hood, Texas Soldier Readiness Center. The study discusses the current state of military policy and readiness for dealing with violent behavior, and suggests improvements. It provides recommendations for the Department against perpetrators of "targeted violence", those individuals who conduct pre-meditated attacks against specific individuals, populations or facilities. While the Task Force charter focused on predicting violent behavior, they determined the most effective means of responding to the challenge of target violence is to undertake preventive measures. To that end, the Task Force recommends a near term focus on threat management units to provide an effective, low-footprint means of mitigating threats of targeted violence in the DoD community. Key to the successful functioning of TMUs, information sharing between concerned parties must be improved to include providing better clarity on such sensitive issues as religious freedom, medical and legal privacy issues.

Task Force on Depot Maintenance Management and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Depot Maintenance Management Task Force was convened as a follow- on to earlier Department of Defense reviews of depot maintenance undertaken in conjunction with recent force structure changes. The Terms of Reference (TOR) for the current study outlined nine specific Congressionally-mandated tasks and required the Task Force to submit appropriate recommendations for legislative and administrative actions. Each of the nine tasks is addressed in this report or the attached appendices. To gain the benefits of advice from both the government and industry, a large Task Force of very senior representatives of both sectors was assembled. Membership included defense industry corporate executives and senior operating officers as well as senior DoD logistics commanders and executives. In comprising the Task Force in this manner, the Defense Science Board benefited from a wide range of backgrounds and depth of experience. Four Task Force panels were formed to address unique depot maintenance commodity considerations. Depot maintenance is accomplished using a balance of public sector (organic) maintenance depots and private sector (commercial) firms. There are significant differences in how organic depots and private sector firms are structured. Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) usually have large staffs for engineering, research and development, marketing and other functions. Organic depots are also heavily facilitized and are often large-scale, integrated industrial activities with the capability and capacity for multiple commodities. On the other end of the spectrum are private sector services companies that are specifically organized to have minimum overhead. Organic depots exist to support the readiness and sustainability requirements of United States combat forces.
