Joint Force Pre-Deployment Training: An Initial Analysis and Product Definition (Strategic Mobility 21: IT Planning Document for APS Demonstration Document (Task 3.7)

Abstract

This report updates an advanced Joint force pre-deployment training program "living design" first documented in 1995 and periodically updated over the past fifteen years. The report updates the design to fill the repeat and new training gaps identified during the recent Joint force deployment data collection events and Joint logistics studies. Since approximately 90 percent of all Army and Marine Corps equipment is transported by ships, the initial Joint force pre-deployment training program design emphasizes surface deployment procedures. To establish the initial training design, the surface movement procedures of the 3d Infantry Division (Mechanized), from the Fort Stewart, Georgia to the Port of Savannah were analyzed along with the Marine Corps deployment processes that are not associated with self deployment capabilities. The advanced computer based training program design is based on a service oriented architecture (SOA) to integrate a blend of commercial off-the-shelf learning applications, models and simulations, and additional web services to fill remaining training capability gaps.
