Articulating the Effects of Infrastructure Resourcing on Air Force Missions: Competing Approaches to Inform the Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution System

Abstract

The Air Force civil engineering community has found that its methods for articulating infrastructure funding needs and mission impacts in the Program Objective Memorandum (POM) process are insufficient, and it is in the process of investigating alternatives. In fiscal year (FY) 2014, the Air Force Civil Engineer asked RAND Project AIR FORCE (PAF) to investigate how the Air Force might articulate the effects of sustainment, restoration, and modernization (SRM) underfunding on readiness to ensure adequate funding to support these activities. This analysis explores the relationship between Air Force infrastructure management and mission readiness and capability. The goal is to identify methodological approaches and data requirements for articulating and quantifying these links and enabling the Air Force to answer the question: What is the effect of funding infrastructure below stated requirements?
