How the Army Runs

Discuss the transition from JCIDS to materiel (“M”) approaches in supporting CCDR mission needs. Include the different paths a materiel solution can take based on need and the consistent tension between the three main aspects of materiel acquisition (cost, schedule, and performance). Incorporate one of the Army “Big 6” modernization priorities to demonstrate how this supports the Army Operating Concept supporting CCDR’s capabi​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​lity needs.
