Abstract
A. The U.S. Army Medical Command (USAMEDCOM) has tasked the U.S. Army Medical Materiel Agency (USAMMA), Materiel Acquisition Directorate, Technology Support Division (MMT-S), Fort Detrick, MD, with the following areas of responsibility: (1) The Technology Assessment and Requirements Analysis (TARA) for Tables of Distribution and Allowances (TDA) facilities. (2) The Combat Support Equipment Assessment (CSEA) for Tables of Organization and Equipment (TOE) facilities. TARA and CSEA are management tools that provide an unbiased review of the clinical requirements and operations for medical treatment facilities (MTFs). The goal of the TARA and CSEA is to provide decision makers at the USAMEDCOM with the management information needed to make informed decisions on the clinical and technological resources required to accomplish business plan missions and to develop acquisition strategies that ensure optimal clinical outcomes. The USAMMA is also responsible for acquisition and logistics management of new and replacement medical equipment and supplies for the TOE medical units and TDA medical facilities. In support of this mission, the MMT-S supports the Army Medical Department (AMEDD) in market and technology surveillance, equipment analysis, acquisition support, and program management.
