Agile Transportation for the 21st Century (AT21) Theater Capability

Abstract

Through the Theater Enterprise Deployment and Distribution (TED2) analysis, the Geographic Combatant Commanders (GCC) identified several gaps between United States Transportation Command's strategic lift processes and GCCs' distribution processes. Highlighted is a lack of capability to (1) manage transportation planning and execution processes for cargo/passenger movement within their respective theaters of operation or (2) match global movement requirements against available lift assets to produce an optimized transportation schedule that meets delivery requirements. AT21 Theater Capability, through the implementation of process improvements, integration of commercial transportation management/optimization tools, and the development of deployment/distribution supporting technologies, will provide the capability for Combatant Commanders to manage theater transportation operations from the port of debarkation to the point of need.
