Purpose

• The purpose of this briefing is to provide an
  update on the 2009 revision of AR 220-1. Units
  will begin reporting on a single METL in the USR
  effective 15 December 2009.

What Readiness Reporting is and is not

• AR 220-1 is
• Authoritative policy for readiness reporting IAW
  Congressional, OSD, Joint Staff, and Army
  readiness reporting requirements.
• Unifies Army unique and externally directed
  readiness and information reporting requirements
  into a single report .
• AR 220-1 is not
• Proponent for Standardizing METL. Standardized
  METL is a CSA/TRADOC initiative.
• Proponent for specific deployability criteria or
  for manning and equipping requirements.
• ARFORGEN synchronization mechanism
• C-Levels are
• Assessments based on the status of resources
  available and training conducted in the unit
  measured against its wartime/designed
  capabilities.
• Army units are designed to possess capabilities
  across the spectrum of conflict C-Ratings
  represent this.
• C-Levels are not
• An assessment of capabilities for only a portion
  of the spectrum of the conflict.
• A comparison of unit capabilities over time
  (organizational documents, i.e. MTOEs change on a
  routine basis).
• METL assessments. METL assessment support the
  training level determination.

POLICY
READINESS LEVELS
Dont push complex analysis to unit commanders.
AR 220-1 sets the reporting requirements (input)
and the DRRS-Army system facilitates analysis
(output).

THE BIG CHANGE (AR 220-1)
THE USR IS ONE REPORT
Commanders Unit Status Report (CUSR)
C-Level How well a unit is resourced and trained,
measured against the core functions of the
unit.
A-Level (feeds JS PCTEF data requirement) How
well a unit is resourced and trained measured
against the assigned mission requirements of
the unit.
CORE/DESIGNED MISSION READINESS
ASSIGNED MISSION READINESS
One Report contains both designed and assigned
mission assessments
Fulfills Existing Joint Staff Requirements (suppor
ts Congressional Oversight, Chairmans Risk
Assessment, and other COCOM oriented assessments)
Army Only Changes in AR 220-1 Revision
Core Functions MTOE/TDA
Assigned Mission Manning
Assigned Mission Equipping
Personnel
Equipment on Hand
Equipment Serviceability
Training Single METL
Commanders report this assessment when assigned a
mission IAW Trigger criteria.
Commanders always report this assessment monthly

• A-Level Reporting Trigger. Commanders report
  A-Level when one condition is met
• When mission is assigned or when directed.
• When the focus of training is the deployed
  mission environment.
• Beginning at LAD minus 180 days

FY 09 Revision is the 5th update to Army
readiness reporting since 2001.

The METL Reporting Process

• THE SINGLE METL CONCEPT
• One METL
• Standardized FSO METL or Standardized CMETL for
  selected Operating Force units at BDE level and
  above
• As Designed METL for remaining units
  (Operating and Generating Force)
• Additive tasks (possible for out of design
  missions ONLY)

THE SINGLE METL PROCESS
The Single METL
METL Standardized by TRADOC?
OF?
Standardized FSO METL or CMETL (42 unit
types About 200 units BDE Above)
THE KEY ISSUE
YES
YES
NO
METL based on MTOE design aligned with the
METL of the next higher command) (5000 BDEs, BNs
Sep CO/DET)
NO
METL reflecting Core functions / designed
capabilities (800 GF units)
