Resource Estimating Relationships and Factors for Army in Europe

Abstract

Resources allocated to the Department of Defense (DOD) are declining. Efficient and effective use of limited resources becomes paramount in meeting DOD's priorities; that is, to maintain essential force readiness, protect essential sustainability, slow the pace of modernization, and minimize force structure impact, as stated in the FY90-94 Program Objectives Memorandum. Because U.S. Army, Europe, and Seventh Army is a forward deployed combat force, meeting defense priorities by ensuring optimum application of resources may have even more applicability and meaning in the European theater of operations than in the continental United States (CONUS). In USAREUR, the Resource Analysis and Systems Division (RSAD) of the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Resource Management (ODCSRM) has undertaken the task of developing decision-making tools specifically tailored to the Army in Europe environment. Three basic approaches have been implemented: a. Base Operations (BASOPS) Cost Factors. b. USAREUR circular 37-11, FYXX Resource Factors Handbook. c. Training and Operational Cost Models.
