Efficiency Initiatives

• Establishment of MCICOM streamlines the Installation Management Enterprise and allows MARFORs (the warfighters) to focus on training and fighting.

• Standardization of regional command structures and functions to inject inherent efficiencies into Installation Management as a whole.

• 2011 strategic civilian workforce review analyzed civilian structure and prioritized billets within the entire installations enterprise.

• Development of a formalized “best practices” program is in progress.

Challenges

• Installations and ranges are where we train to fight.

• Sustaining our mission is critical to the military value of our installations and training areas.

• We must be attentive to compatibility issues with communities and mission:

• Urban growth and land use near bases and training areas

• Natural resource / endangered species management

• Renewable energy initiatives, including wind turbines, ocean wave energy, solar farms, waste-to-energy, and geothermal

• Relationships between base commander, community leaders, and third parties

•Increased need for partnering

• Economic benefit to the community:
