Abstract:

NTM-ACSTC-A requested Center for Army Analysis CAA assistance in reviewing and processing myriad data sources tracking equipment distribution to Afghan National Security Forces ANSF. Currently, no centralized and authoritative data system exists to provide a common operating picture on the accountability of coalition provided ANSF materiel thus hindering leadership actions for both NATO and Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan GIRoA forces. CAA provided reach-back support by processing submitted data records to provide an historic database to initialize an integrated and centralized database network being developed by forward elements among NTM-ACSTC-A staff. CAA reach-back analysts worked with CAA forward deployed analysts to establish a current disposition of materiel by processing transmitted data from pertinent sources.
