Q

SRC 12 Rules of Allocation

A

At the Inter-Theater Gateway you must have a TG PAT and an MMT. You
must remember to order each unit and sub-unit individually

A TG PAT can handle 0 - 3,600 per day
For every 1,800 after you must order
and additional HR PLT.
Reminder: each HR PLT has 3 squads
functioning as PATs
Example
0 - 3,600 = No additional assets needed
3,601 - 5,400 = 1 additional HR Platoon
5,401 – 7,200 = 2 additional HR Platoons
At the Inter-Theater Gateway you must have a TG PAT and an MMT. You
must remember to order each unit and sub-unit individually .

Remember that the Postal Platoons at
the MMT are not providing area postal
support. They are conducting MMT
operations and handling bulk mail.

61
Q

Challenges of the HROB

A

Training - Lack of Force Management/Tracking training - what do you need?  HR Enabling System connectivity, training, and proficiency - how do you get this?  Manning - HROB not fully manned or staffed with rank, grade, ASI, SQI or experience  Automation equipment shortages - what is the minimum you need to operate?  The acronym “FM” (Force Management) misunderstood – what do you really do?  Gaining understanding & importance of developing an operational adaptability mindset  Training the SPO on the execution-critical role/relevancy of the HROB staff  Ensuring the SPO team understands the HROB value to the SB customers  Lack of “relevant” pre-deployment training (CTE, MRE/MRX) – how do you get involved?  EPS “mission creep” into the HROB – you are not the S1 – you are externally focused!  Understanding the HRSC capabilities and using them as asset extensions of the HROB  Home station mission set training - what do you do when not deployed

62
Q

HR Ops Key Performance Indicators

HR OPS KPI Tracking Charts

General Info

A

The HR Ops Branch ensures sufficient number of HR organizations are available to provide HR area support, monitor the support provided by HR organizations, provide technical guidance, and coordinate resource support to the SRC-12 organizations (supporting units) to ensure they have the capability to provide the required PA , Postal, and Casualty operations support as directed in the HR concept of support.

The HR Ops Branch also provides a supported/supporting relationship with the G-1s/S-1s within the SB AOR for the areas of Casualty, Postal and PA operations.

It is through the SPO HR Ops Branch that the Commander is able to monitor the “pulse” of HR support operations and the effectiveness of the support provided.

Commanders monitor HR support by establishing HR KPI which will provide them insight into the effectiveness of HR support. These KPI may be included as part of the Commander’s Critical Information Requirements (CCIR).

68
Q

Sample HROB CCIR / EEFI

A

Postal – Postal Offenses – Number of days mail is static, or undelivered – Accountable mail and casualty mail accounted for and redirected – Storage capacity for mail based on combat operations (e.g., offense might require a delay in mail delivery / exceed capacity)
Casualty – Uninterrupted access to DCIPS-CF – Loss of communication between Casualty Liaison Teams (CLTs), Unit S1s and Theater Casualty Assistance Center (CAC) – Initial casualty reports, from time of incident, greater than 12 hours, to HRC-Casualty and Mortuary Affairs Operations Center (CMAOC) – tracked and reported by Theater CAC
Personnel Accountability – Number of days personnel remain at APOD/Theater Gateway – Visibility of inbound and outbound transportation – Tactical Personnel System (TPS)/Deployed Theater Accountability Software (DTAS) operational and updated daily – Access to systems (uninterrupted)

The above CCIR/EEFI are not all inclusive

  • HR Planners will further develop the Commander’s Critical Information requirements (CCIRs) and Essential Elements of Friendly Information (EEFIs) for HR operations based on METTTC and the commanders guidance.
  • These CCIR/EEFI are provided to facilitate HR planners thoughts as part of the HR Planning considerations, but do not supersede any CCIR/EEFI established by the unit.

HR Planner Enabling Systems

What are Enabling Systems?

A

Enabling systems enhance the HRSC, ESC and SB HROB capability to achieve the desired HR end state in support of an operational commander’s mission requirements.
To remain relevant to the Future Force, the HR professional must continue to embrace the new Knowledge Management and Net-centric culture as future military operations will be conducted in a different and changing operational environment – one that is powered by enabling systems..

Not all enabling systems listed are applicable to every HR Planner. These are provided as a starting point. Refer to FM 1.0. para 3-98 and ATTP 1-0.1, App. C for more system information.

Table of Organization and Equipment (TOE)

A

The TOE is a requirements document that prescribes the capabilities, organizational structure, and the minimum mission essential wartime requirements (both personnel and equipment) necessary for a military unit to accomplish it’s doctrinal mission and the capabilities required by the unit to perform its core functions and assigned tasks.

A Modification table of organization and equipment (MTOE) is an authorization document that prescribes the modification of a basic TOE necessary to adapt it to the needs of a specific unit or type of unit.

Each TOE is identified by a unique number that should remain the same throughout the life of the organization. TOE developers, in coordination with the TRADOC force designers, are responsible for developing the proposed TOE number.

USAFMSA RDD approves the TOE number.

The TOE number is composed of a nine-position, alphanumeric code, viz: 32536AA00

This number is also the first nine digits of the Standard Requirements Code SRC.
