About

Today's Army has transitioned from a force that was forward deployed to one that is primarily CONUS-based. This transition, however, has not changed the Army's national defense strategy role of providing land-based forces capable of operating across the entire military spectrum of operations. What has changed is the need to more rapidly generate and deploy forces to an operational area. As a consequence, some support forces will lag behind other, higher priority forces, resulting in a logistical shortfall. To bridge the gap before scheduled resources and CSS units arrive, or when other logistical support options do not provide the supplies and service needed, the Army is turning more frequently to contracting support to provide goods and services required. Contracting support is an integral part of the overall process of obtaining support across the entire spectrum.
