00:02.380 --> 00:04.869
The army , senior leaders found a

00:04.880 --> 00:07.110
bottleneck that was hurting unit

00:07.119 --> 00:09.341
commanders from executing their mission

00:09.350 --> 00:11.517
essential tasks because they had other

00:11.517 --> 00:13.628
things that were taking up their time

00:13.628 --> 00:15.850
in the time of their soldiers . Part of

00:15.850 --> 00:15.810
this was excess equipment . It was

00:15.819 --> 00:18.041
twofold . One , it took the soldiers to

00:18.041 --> 00:19.986
maintain and sustain the equipment

00:19.986 --> 00:22.152
inventory , but it also took up temple

00:22.152 --> 00:24.375
dollars to sustain it that they weren't

00:24.375 --> 00:26.541
funded for because it was excess . The

00:26.541 --> 00:28.763
army senior leaders then directed AC to

00:28.763 --> 00:30.986
come up with a plan . The army Material

00:30.986 --> 00:33.152
Command then passed it down to ac army

00:33.152 --> 00:35.375
sustainment command for execution . AMC

00:35.375 --> 00:37.375
is the lead material integrator and

00:37.375 --> 00:39.430
owns the responsibility for managing

00:39.430 --> 00:41.430
property for the entire army . Army

00:41.430 --> 00:43.597
sustainment command is responsible for

00:43.597 --> 00:45.819
executing that responsibility on behalf

00:45.819 --> 00:47.986
of AC . So we have this responsibility

00:47.986 --> 00:50.208
of managing equipment at the enterprise

00:50.208 --> 00:50.066
level . The existing process was built

00:50.076 --> 00:52.132
on army regulation that determines a

00:52.132 --> 00:53.798
transfer standard for lateral

00:53.798 --> 00:56.416
transmitters in particular of 21,020

00:56.425 --> 00:58.592
includes things like has all of the BI

00:58.592 --> 01:00.536
I . The basic issue items is fully

01:00.536 --> 01:02.481
mission capable , doesn't have any

01:02.481 --> 01:04.369
deadline faults , et cetera . The

01:04.369 --> 01:06.481
bottom line for R two E is that we're

01:06.481 --> 01:08.703
now accepting essentially all equipment

01:08.703 --> 01:10.431
in an as is condition further

01:10.442 --> 01:12.609
unburdening units of having to bring a

01:12.609 --> 01:14.609
piece of equipment up to a specific

01:14.609 --> 01:16.386
standard and instead taking the

01:16.386 --> 01:18.609
equipment as it is right now sitting in

01:18.609 --> 01:20.442
their motor pool or their supply

01:20.442 --> 01:22.386
warehouse . So we started with the

01:22.386 --> 01:24.553
pilot program at Fort Stewart and Fort

01:24.553 --> 01:24.251
Liberty in October . It ran through

01:24.262 --> 01:26.419
December . Now we are working on

01:26.430 --> 01:28.597
planning for the expansion of the RT E

01:28.597 --> 01:30.541
program . Uh in the future , we're

01:30.541 --> 01:32.597
considering locations including Fort

01:32.597 --> 01:34.763
Campbell , Kentucky JB LM , Joint Base

01:34.763 --> 01:36.874
Lewis mcchord in Washington State and

01:36.874 --> 01:39.097
potentially in the future . Coming back

01:39.097 --> 01:38.760
to Fort Stewart , Georgia , which is

01:38.769 --> 01:40.919
part of the pilot program . We are in

01:40.930 --> 01:43.120
this project from beginning to end

01:43.150 --> 01:45.760
everything that moves within the army

01:45.769 --> 01:48.239
outside of an army command must go

01:48.250 --> 01:50.660
through the LM process . The lead

01:50.669 --> 01:52.891
material integrator process is resident

01:52.891 --> 01:55.002
here at army sustainment command . So

01:55.002 --> 01:56.836
once it's turned into ac , it is

01:56.836 --> 01:58.613
completely off the books of the

01:58.613 --> 02:00.502
operating units and it becomes ac

02:00.502 --> 02:02.669
property . So when we're talking about

02:02.669 --> 02:04.725
equipment within the R two program ,

02:04.725 --> 02:04.629
we're talking about equipment that has

02:04.639 --> 02:06.919
been identified as access to a unit

02:06.930 --> 02:08.930
because of four structure changes ,

02:08.930 --> 02:10.763
upgraded equipment or modernized

02:10.763 --> 02:12.874
equipment that might become available

02:12.874 --> 02:14.986
at some point . All equipment becomes

02:14.986 --> 02:17.152
obsolete in some form or fashion . And

02:17.152 --> 02:19.208
so that equipment has to be divested

02:19.208 --> 02:21.263
and moved out of that unit through a

02:21.263 --> 02:23.486
supply transaction process that gets it

02:23.486 --> 02:25.597
out of the unit and on to other units

02:25.597 --> 02:25.240
or divested from the army .
