Book Description
Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-42.2, Supply Support Activity Operations, provides specific guidance on planning, organizing, directing, coordinating, and controlling supply support. It is relevant to all logistics units at all levels. It is consistent with joint and multinational doctrine. The principal audience for ATP 4-42.2 is all members of the profession of arms. Commanders and staffs of Army headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint or multinational doctrine concerning the range of military operations and joint or multinational forces. Trainers and educators throughout the Army will also use this manual. ATP 4-42.2 uses joint terms where applicable. Selected joint and Army terms and definitions appear in both the glossary and the text. For definitions shown in the text, the term is italicized and the number of the proponent publication follows the definition. This publication is not the proponent for any Army terms. ATP 4-42.2 applies to the Active Army, Army National Guard/Army National Guard of the United States, and United States Army Reserve unless otherwise stated. ATP 4-42.2, Supply Support Activity Operations, replaces FM 10-15, Basic Doctrine Manual for Supply and Storage. FM 10-15 was published December 1990. There has been much advancement in strategic and operational logistics processes and procedures in response to Army transformation and recent conflicts. ATP 4-42.2 contains new operational methods resulting from lessons learned and contains processes that did not exist previously. The Army's approach to logistics has changed significantly since FM 10-15 was published in 1990. The Army is in the process of replacing SARSS with a web-based enterprise resource planning system called Global Combat Support System - Army thereby making nearly all of the FM 10-15 information obsolete. FM 10-15 provided information for supply officers and leaders in petroleum, water, technical supply as well as supply support activities. Each of these functions is being addressed in separate Army techniques publications making it no longer necessary to address in ATP 4-42.2, Supply Support Activity Operations. FM 10-15 had two sections: Part 1: Supply Officers and Leaders. This section contains information for supply operations officers, supply platoon leaders, petroleum platoon leaders and technical supply officers. With few exceptions, the information presented is operator level procedures rather than management level business practices. Part 2: Supply Operations. This section contains in-depth information on filling out manual forms and data entry screens for Direct Support Unit Standard Supply System and Standard Army Retail Supply System -Interim. ATP 4-42.2 focuses on what Soldiers do rather than on the flow of digital information within the logistics automation systems. ATP 4-42.2 also focuses on aviation specific and multi-class supply support activity operations rather than specific commodity supply points. This ATP does not address management or handling of class III (bulk) or class V. Significant topics of this ATP are as follows: Chapter 1 explores the broad supply mission, supply and storage, support requirements, organizational relationships and roles/responsibilities. Chapter 2 explains the principles of establishing a supply point. Chapter 3 provides information on sustainment operations in a deployed environment. Chapter 4 offers insights for redeploying the supply support activity.

Book Description
Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-44 / MCRP 3-17.7Q Water Support Operations October 2015 is the United States Army and United States Marine Corps manual for planning and executing water support for missions conducted across the full range of military operations. In the U.S. Army, water support operations are a Quartermaster Corps function, as well as a component of Army Logistics. Army Logistics is an element of the sustainment warfighting function, which provides the operational commander freedom of action, extended operational reach, and operational endurance. Water support operations include water treatment, storage and distribution. Water treatment is a field service function, while water storage and distribution are supply functions. In the U.S. Marine Corps, water support operations are a general engineering function, as well as a component of tactical-level logistics. Logistics is a warfighting function in the Marine Corps. Water support operations are critical to the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps; they directly impact the depth and duration of military operations. ATP 4-44/MCRP 3-17.7Q will combine, restructure, and update information previously published in three field manuals: FM 10-52, Water Supply in Theaters of Operations, dated 11 July 1990. FM 10-52-1, Water Supply Point Equipment and Operations, dated 18 June 1991. FM 10-115, Quartermaster Water Units, dated 15 February 1989. ATP 4-44/MCRP 3-17.7Q contains numerous revisions. The title has been changed to Water Support Operations to correctly incorporate terminology from FM 4-40, Quartermaster Operations and JP 4-03, Joint Bulk Petroleum and Water Doctrine. This publication incorporates current terminology from the Army's operational concept described in ADRP 3-0, Unified Land Operations. Additional current terminology is also included from FM 4-40, Quartermaster Operations, Technical Bulletin Medical 577, Sanitary Control And Surveillance of Field Water Supplies, JP 4-03, Joint Bulk Petroleum and Water Doctrine, STANAG 2136, Requirements for Water Potability during Field Operations and in Emergency Situations, and STANAG 2885, Emergency Supply of Water in Operations. Information that has been revised from previous publications includes force structure changes, new equipment fielding, and improved planning techniques.

Book Description
This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-42 General Supply and Field Services Operations July 2014, 4-42 provides logisticians and field commanders an understanding of general supply and selected field services functional principles, organizations, and associated guidance. It provides basic doctrinal discussion on the organization and operations of Quartermaster general supply and field services units. The focus of Army techniques publication (ATP) 4-42 is operational and tactical level general supply and field services operations which are conducted in support of Army forces in a deployed environment. It discusses these functions through the various support levels of multi-functional and Quartermaster logistics units. From a supporting commander's perspective, it provides information on the functions of general supplies and field services to allow that commander to understand better how to execute support to the force. From a supported commander's perspective, it provides information on the types of support available in order to allow proper planning. This ATP incorporates modular unit capabilities, designs and concepts, plus updated terminology in accordance with ADP/ADRP 3-0 and other commensurate doctrine. The net effect was to reduce the manual from approximately 300 pages down to approximately 60 pages. The significant reduction in the various types of units between Army of Excellence and modular forces contributed the most to size reduction. Additionally, material that was repeated in/from other manuals was eliminated to comply with Doctrine 2015 content requirements. ATP 4-42 contains seven chapters: Chapter 1 discusses the overall concept of support and describes the general supply and field services operational overviews. Chapter 2 focuses on the roles and missions of strategic partners, joint and multinational support, executive agency and proponency, the general supply and field services units, and the higher level management organizations involved at theater sustainment command, expeditionary sustainment command, sustainment brigade, combat sustainment support battalion, and brigade support battalion levels. Chapter 3 covers operational planning to include special considerations such as operational contract support and the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program. Chapter 4 details the general supply concept of support to include automation, inventory and materiel management, property accountability, the specifics of the individual classes of supply, supply support activities, configured loads, and retrograde operations. Chapter 5 details the field services operations concept of support to include personnel responsibilities, shower and laundry operations, field site selection and layout considerations, and production reports. Chapter 6 discusses environmental stewardship considerations to include guidelines, training, and hazardous material/waste management. Chapter 7 outlines fire, toxic, and lifting hazards, security and protection, risk assessment, antiterrorism measures, and information protection. ATP 4-42 provides guidance for commanders, supervisors, Soldiers and other personnel involved in providing general supplies and field services during deployed operations. This manual is the operational level description the provision of general supplies and selected field service functions. It addresses these operations from the theater sustainment command (TSC) level, where the critical sustainment handover occurs from strategic agencies and commands, down to the tactical level, including applicable operations of the brigade support battalion (BSB). Commanders and staffs of Army headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint or multinational doctrine concerning the range of military operations and joint or multinational forces. Trainers and educators throughout the Army will also use this manual.

Book Description
This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-90 Brigade Support Battalion April 2014, describes the brigade support battalion (BSB) role, organization and operations in support of a brigade combat team (BCT) or support brigade. ATP 4-90 is a revision of FM 4-90, Brigade Support Battalion, last published in 2010. This ATP was written for commanders, staffs and Soldiers assigned to a brigade support battalion, the brigade combat team and the support brigades. It provides relevant information to echelon above brigade sustainment organizations. ATP 4-90 provides information on the role and functions of each organization within the BSB. ATP 4-90 clarifies existing BSB doctrine. The intent is to frame the BSB in the context of its role within its supported brigade as opposed to its role within the sustainment system. This is accomplished by eliminating discussion about modular logistics and focusing on BSB operations. The updates to ATP 4-90 account for mission command philosophy, emerging Army vision and implementation of Global Combat Support System-Army Field/Tactical (GCSS-Army (F/T). Language and content of the manual are consistent with current doctrine guidelines. This is primarily accomplished by removing functional details from the chapters describing the subordinate companies and referring the reader to the appropriate functional ATP. Organization graphics are updated with known organizational changes and GCSS-Army (F/T) operations are annotated where appropriate. The aviation support battalion's role, organization and operations are consolidated into a single chapter. All text related to mission command warfighting functions and log reporting is consolidated into a single chapter which includes an expanded section on mission command systems and command post (CP) operations. There are three appendices: an echelon of support appendix, a brigade support area (BSA) appendix and a current Stryker brigade combat team appendix. Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-90 Brigade Support Battalion April 2014 contains eight chapters: Chapter 1 includes the role of the BSB, how the BSB supports the sustainment warfighting function and decisive action tasks. The chapter also includes BSB concept of support and descriptions of echelon above brigade units that would support the BSB and the BSB supported brigades. Chapter 2 lists the battalions' capabilities and BSB headquarters and staff organization. Of note are the duties of specific staff elements and how they integrate with the supported brigade's staff. There is also a section on how the BSB fits within its supported brigade. Section four includes the battlefield surveillance brigade's (BFSB) brigade support company role, organization and operations. Chapter 3 provides an overview of the distribution company and includes recent capability updates. Chapter 4 is about the field maintenance company. Chapter 5 describes the brigade support medical company (BSMC) and includes the BSMC's role, organization graphic and BSMC operations. Chapter 6 provides the role, organization and operations of the aviation support battalion (ASB). The ASB is both structured differently and operates differently from the BSB. Chapter 7 is about the forward support company (FSC). The chapter identifies the role of the FSC, the FSC organization and describes what the FSC does. The chapter also includes a discussion of the FSC commander's role and command relationship between the FSC, the BSB and the supported battalion. Chapter 8 is mission command and logistic reporting. The content includes operations process, command post operations, mission command systems available to accomplish logistic reporting and a section on logistic reporting.

Book Description
This Army Techniques Publication (ATP) describes the organization, mission, and operations of the sustainment brigade and its subordinate units. These subordinate units are task organized to the sustainment brigade depending on the specific mission of the brigade. This manual also describes the relationships of the sustainment brigade and its subordinate units to each other as well as to the organizations they have command and support relationships with. This manual applies to unified land operations extending from stable peace to general war. Doctrine is not intended to cover garrison operation, but should serve as a guide for training and operations in garrison to prepare for war. The principle audience for this publication is Army commanders, geographic combatant commanders (GCCs), joint force commanders (JFCs), and sustainers throughout the Army. This ATP serves as an authoritative reference for students and personnel who: -Develop doctrine materiel (fundamental principles and TTP) and force structure. -Develop institutional and unit training. -Develop standing operating procedures (SOP) for unit operations. Commanders, staffs, and subordinates ensure their decisions and actions comply with applicable U.S., international, and, in some cases, host-nation laws and regulations. Commanders at all levels ensure their Soldiers operate in accordance with the law of war and the rules of engagement. (See Field Manual [FM] 27- 10.) ATP 4-93 uses joint terms where applicable. Selected joint and Army terms and definitions appear in both the glossary and the text. ATP 4-93 does not introduce any new terms, rescind any terms or modify any terms. ATP 4-93 applies to the Active Army, Army National Guard/Army National Guard of the United States, and United States Army Reserve unless otherwise stated.

Book Description
Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-10 MCRP 4-11H NTTP 4-09.1 AFMAN 10-409-O Multi-Service Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures or Operational Contract Support February 2016 This multi-Service tactics, techniques, and procedures manual provides operational contract support (OCS) "how to" guidance for Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps commanders, their non-acquisition officer staffs, and their servicing contracting organizations. It also applies to Naval forces operating ashore when these forces are being supported by Army, Air Force, or Marine Corps units. It serves as the primary reference document for planning and execution of OCS, associated functions and tasks at the tactical level. It supersedes ATTP 4-10, Operational Contract Support, dated June 2011 and incorporates the latest guidance found in JP 4-10, Operational Contract Support, dated 16 July 2014 and other associated regulatory guidance. OCS is the process of planning for and obtaining supplies, services, and construction from commercial sources in support of joint operations. While varying in scope and scale, OCS is a critical force multiplier across all phases and types of operations. With a smaller military, less robust active component sustainment capability, and greater emphasis on Phase 0 operations, the critical importance of operational contract support will surely increase as a necessary capability in future operations. Therefore, the Services must continue to enhance their capabilities to plan and provide OCS for deployed forces. This multi-Service publication is intended to provide commanders and their staffs with the doctrinal and policy tools necessary to properly leverage the full spectrum of OCS capabilities in all phases of the operation. This multi-Service publication content remains generally consistent with that found in ATTP 4-10; however, terminology and concepts have been updated as required. Most notably, OCS is redefined and contracting support added as one of the three key OCS functions, in accordance with joint OCS doctrine. The material in this multi-Service publication is presented in a more logical format and sequence, and several new appendices provide an overview of multi-Service OCS capabilities and contain checklists to assist requiring activities and supported units with OCS planning and execution. This multi-Service publication contains five chapters: Chapter 1 introduces OCS and other OCS-related terms, introduces the OCS process and team, discusses key OCS imperatives to minimize risk of contract fraud and unauthorized commitments, and closes with a brief discussion on ethics. Chapter 2 discusses joint planning guidance and the integration of OCS requirements into tactical level planning. It also covers considerations for conducting relief in place and base drawdown and closure. Chapter 3 describes the requirements development process with a focus on requiring activity and supported unit functions. It also discusses the critical parts of a contract support request package and the contract support request package approval process. Chapter 4 covers requiring activity and supported unit responsibilities in contract performance oversight, how contract support is typically assessed, and contains sections on unauthorized commitments, ratifications, and contract closeout actions. Chapter 5 discusses contractor management planning, linking contractor management requirements to the requirements development and contract performance oversight processes, contractor management risks and challenges, contractor personnel legal status information, deployment and redeployment planning and preparation requirements, contractor management in theater, and closes with a section on ensuring fair labor processes.

Book Description
This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-91 Army Field Support Brigade Change 2 July 2014, is a major revision to ATP 4-91. It provides basic doctrinal discussion on the organization and operations of the Army Field Support Brigade. The primary target audience for this field manual includes: Headquarters Department of the Army, Army commands, theater armies, direct reporting units, and supported units at all levels.The Army Field Support Brigade (AFSB) is a small, mission focused, highly modular organization built around a tailored modified table of organization and equipment (MTOE) and an augmentation table of distribution and allowances (TDA) structure. The AFSB is assigned to the US Army Materiel Command's (USAMC) Army Sustainment Command (ASC). AFSBs leverage USAMC national-level provider capabilities and assist in the coordination of acquisition logistics and technology (ALT) support (less medical) to the operational Army. Each AFSB can request assistance and/or support from USAMC and the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology (ASA[ALT]) to meet specific mission requirements. When deployed in support of contingency operations, and when directed by their higher echelon, the AFSB will normally be placed under the operational control (OPCON) of the supported theater Army. This OPCON authority is normally delegated to the theater sustainment command (TSC) or expeditionary sustainment command (ESC) as appropriate.The AFSB combines various USAMC assets into a single brigade level unit that plans for and synchronizes USAMC national-level provider support to US Army forces. The AFSB also participates in the coordination and support of ALT related actions, less medical ALT support and theater support contracting, in the operational area. Although the AFSB has no direct acquisition authority, it is able to coordinate with and influence program executive office (PEO), project/product managers (PMs), or Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) actions.This ATP provides an overview of AFSB organization and mission functions that apply to both contingency operations and support to units throughout the Army force generation (ARFORGEN) process.This version, Change 2, includes five chapters and two appendix:Chapter 1 – Operations and Organization OverviewChapter 2 – Subordinate OrganizationsChapter 3 – National-Level Provider FunctionsChapter 4 – Acquisition Logistics and TechnologyChapter 5 – Contract Support Coordination and Contractor ManagementAppendix A – Responsible Reset Task Force (R2TF) and Redistribution Property Assistance Team (RPAT) Techniques

Book Description
Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-94 Theater Sustainment Command June 2013 Army Techniques Publications (ATP) 4-94, Theater Sustainment Command, is the revision of FM 4-94, Theater Sustainment Command. ATP 4-94 provides an overview of the theater sustainment command (TSC) and an expeditionary sustainment command (ESC)'s roles, and functions, information on strategic partners, the organization, and guidance within the context of decisive action. ATP 4-94 establishes Army doctrine for operational-level theater deployment and sustainment by providing overarching doctrinal direction for Army operations conducted in support of unified land operations. Major changes from FM 4-94 include clarifying the role of the ESC within unified land operations, primarily, that the TSC can deploy an ESC when the TSC determines that a forward command is required, or when task organized directly under the mission command of a Corps or Army forces (ARFOR). ATP 4-94 also introduces Global Combat Support System-Army materiel management levels. This is a fundamental materiel management information system change, which is being fielded to the total Army force. Introducing the materiel management level responsibilities will allow materiel management at all sustainment levels to understand changes being made to the information system infrastructure, and their roles and responsibilities.
