Definition
Army force readiness - “the ability within its established structure to station , command and
control forces. It also must man, equip, replenish, modernize, and train forces in peacetime.
Concurrently, it involves planning to prepare, mobilize, deploy, employ, and sustain them in war
to accomplish assigned missions, redeploy, and demobilize the forces. ”
Installation - An installation is an aggregation of contiguous or near contiguous, common
mission-supporting real property holdings under the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense
controlled by and at which an Army unit or activity is permanently assigned. The Army organizes
installations using tables of organization and equipment, tables of distribution and allowance, and
personnel resource documents. Installations, are designed to support America's Army. Activities
on the installation receive installation support in accomplishing their missions. Examples of these
are schools, hospitals, reserve component elements, and Army divisions. An installation can be
compared to a civilian community or a city where people work, train, live, and play.
Installation readiness - “the ability to deliver to the force the missions for which it was designed. ”
Unit readiness - “the ability of a unit to accomplish the mission for which it was designed. ”
Synopsis
. This document provides guidance for readiness, business practices, and quality of life as it
pertains to military installation management. It describes changes required for placing installations
in a force projection platform role and how preventive medicine is a comprehensive program to
protect the health and environment of military personnel. This publication provides the processes
for the core installation management functions.
Force integration is the systematic management of change. It includes the introduction,
incorporation, and sustainment of doctrine, organizations, and equipment to improve the
effectiveness of the Army to accomplish assigned missions. It is the management process used by
commanders to field capable forces. Many organizations throughout the defense establishment
contribute to the creation of an integrated force. Force integration comes together most often at
the installation level. Effective installation management creates installations of excellence.
Installations of excellence launch ready forces to destinations all over the world in defense of the
nation's national interests and within the United States to provide domestic support.

Installations of the twenty-first century must have the capability to train, mobilize, deploy, sustain,
support, recover, and reconstitute assigned and mobilized operating forces. The traditional
boundary between tactical and sustaining base activities will disappear as the installation power
projection platform assumes an active role in the welfare of deployed operating forces.
All installation activities are key ingredients to the development of a well-tuned and motivated
fighting force. Examples of these activities are facilities engineering, housing, environmental,
health support, recreation, community activities, and logistics operations.
The installation/garrison commander has enormous responsibilities as he guides the installation to
support the National Military Strategy and the movement of our installations to power projection
platforms. To execute this successfully, the commander must understand the core installation
management functions and understand the responsibilities of an installation commander.
What Does This Mean for Military Public Health?
Preventive medicine strengthens the warfighting capability by countering the health threat. To
perform the preventive medicine mission we need to identify the health threat, develop and apply
countermeasures, and perform continuous surveillance. Preventive medicine strategy is
incorporated within the Joint Health Service Support Vision 2010. This joint strategy will drive
the development of new Joint and Army health service doctrine. The doctrine will result in
development of new force structure and provisioning requirements, which can employ the
preventive medicine strategy. To meet future challenges we must:
♦ have the people, equipment, policies, procedures, and training in place to facilitate
contingency based force tailoring; and
♦ develop Installation Status Reports for all preventive medicine and health promotion
programs.
The following themes are common to other documents on our list.
♦ USACHPPM could serve as a center of excellence for the full spectrum of health promotion
and preventive medicine services in managing the health of our soldiers and beneficiaries;
♦ assist with the development of a Joint service approach in addressing the health promotion
and preventive medicine needs of commanders, especially the CINCs;
♦ develop partnerships among the Military Health System (MHS), other government agencies,
the World Health Organization, and the private sector to create healthier environments and
workplaces;
♦ disseminate current, available, integrated health information for decision support to
commanders, policy makers and individuals who can act to influence health and prevent
diseases and injuries;
♦ partner with private industry, other non-governmental, and governmental agencies for
identification and integration of best practices;
♦ determine cost avoidance and cost-effectiveness of preventive medicine and health promotion
programs; and
♦ establish priorities for preventive medicine products and services.
