Personnel Recovery Command and Control (PRC2)

Abstract

This budget line funds the Personnel Recovery Command and Control (PRC2) program, which develops and delivers tools and services for planning, collaborating and managing search and rescue efforts, as well as disseminating related information to all personnel recovery (PR) mission coordinators across the PR network. PRC2 provides an adaptive and networked system, delivering timely situational awareness information supporting personnel accountability and recovery mission management worldwide. PRC2 delivers a globally accessible, collaborative, interoperable and integrated set of capabilities to prevent, prepare for and respond to joint/coalition military personnel recovery activities, and civilian rescue missions. The Joint Personnel Recovery (JPR) Initial Capability Document (ICD) (2012) articulates capabilities needed for PRC2. Personnel Recover Mission Manager (PRMM) 3.1 continues to develop using Agile Development, Security and Operations (DevSecOps). Annex A to the PRMM 3.1 is the requirement document for improvements until Full Operational Capability (FOC) criteria is achieved. The system collects, stores and delivers personnel/identity biometric data, emergency locator beacon registrations, Isolated Personnel (IP) reports, evasion plans of action, incident reports and other information management capabilities. The information is used for predictive, preventive and personnel vulnerability analysis and assessment in support of PR across the Department of Defense and other national and international entities. Activities also include studies and analysis to support both current program planning and execution, as well as future program planning. In FY25, PRMM 3.1 modifications will continue to use an Agile DevSecOps strategy to develop and test capability in two-week increments (sprints) after fielding Configuration Control Board (CCB) approval from Major Command (MAJCOM). The modifications will improve/validate IP events/alerts and enable case files for Defense Prisoner of War/Missing Personnel Office (DPMO) and Joint Personnel Recovery Agency (JPRA). PRMM 3.1 modifications will reflect the requirements and priorities identified by Air Combat Command (ACC) as the personnel recovery environment evolves to meet the needs of the warfighter and personnel recovery efforts. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such programs funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, and 0606398F. In FY23, $0.000M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY24 $0.000M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
