Communications-Electronics Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) Restructure in Support of the Fielding of Mobile Subscriber Equipment (MSE) System,
Abstract
Force Modernization always presents problems to the forces undergoing change. The Signal Corps is preparing to undergo the most massive and comprehensive modernization program it has ever attempted which involves new tactical radio equipment and revised doctrine to employ it in support of Divisions and Corps. The recent decision to acquire Mobile Subscriber Equipment through the Non-developmental Item process has created some unique challenges for the personnel community. New MOSs has to be created for equipment, and TOEs revised to support the new AirLand Battle doctrine. Because of compressed time schedules brought about by NDI acquisitions, the personnel community initiated a series of actions to support the fielding MSE. However, a key action was overlooked, that being the submission of a Basis of Issue Plan (BOIP) and it supporting documents. The failure to submit this key document has delayed the approval of the new MOSs and TOEs. In order to preclude future problems of this nature, it is recommended that DA DCSOPS and DA DCSPER publish a single source document which outlines step by step those actions required to support NDI items being brought into the Army inventory.
