The Transportation Command (TRANSCOM) Transformation Technology Plan (T3P) is the command's strategic plan and roadmap for the exploration/exploitation of applied research and technology demonstrations to enhance transportation and distribution processes. Its purpose is to enhance the Defense Transportation System (DTS) and Distribution Process Owner (DPO) capabilities through advancements in state-of-the-art technologies. The USTRANSCOM Science & Technology (S&T) program currently represents a mix of Transformation Technology (TT) funded projects and Research and Development (R&D) funded projects. Starting in FY08, the program will be entirely R&D funded and the program title will convert from the USTRANSCOM S&T Program to the USTRANSCOM R&D Program. The T3P consists of the following chapters: 1. Vision and Mission, 2. S&T Program and 3. Role of S&T. USTRANSCOM is responsible for worldwide strategic mobility planning and supervises the execution of its DTS and DPO functions through its components. To enhance its operational capabilities, the command requires an integrated S&T strategy that identifies the gaps impinging DTS/DPO capabilities and promotes a process that prioritizes those funding needs in order to achieve a global, networked, integrated and adaptive end-to-end (E2E) rapid deployment/distribution capability. USTRANSCOM must have the processes, automated support tools and interactive/collaborative ability to manipulate transportation and distribution requirements. This includes the capability to perform command and control (C2) operations to collaboratively monitor, assess, analyze, plan, predict, execute, and report business operations while tailoring services to meet customer requirements throughout the process. A description of technology gaps and current S&T investments are located in Appendix A and B respectively. |
