Defense Primer: Military Installations Management


The Department  of Defense (DOD) and the Military
Departments (MILDEPs)   maintain distinctive
organizational structures (Figure 1), policies, and programs
for managing their installations. According to 16 U.S.C.
§670(1)(A), a military installation means any land, or
interest in land owned by the United States and
administered by the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary
of a [MILDEP], except land under the jurisdiction of the
Assistant Secretary of the Army having responsibility for
civil works. The term is further defined in 10 U.S.C.
§2801(c)(4) to mean a base, camp, post, station, yard,
center, or other activity. In general, this includes: facilities,
training ranges, and other supporting infrastructure that
reside on a military installation.

Installations management includes overseeing, planning,
programming,  and implementing major activities at military
installations, such as installation master planning; facility
planning and design; military construction (MILCON);
facilities sustainment, restoration, and modernization
(FSRM);  government housing; and the disposal of real
property. These activities may include sub-activities such as
the inventory and condition assessment of real property,
reviewing real estate agreements, maintaining force
protection, and contracting utility services.

Examples  of DOD  programs that fall under the umbrella of
military installations management include the

*  Military Housing Privatization Initiative;
*  Energy Resilience and Conservation Investment
   Program;
*  Defense Environmental Restoration Program; and
*  Child Development  Programs.
Current defense-wide issuances that address real property
and associated installation management activities include
DOD   Directive 4165.06 Real Property, and DOD
Instruction 4165.70 Real Property Management. Additional
installation management policies are set by each MILDEP,
or the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) for real
property they manage.

DOD-Managed Installations
DOD   manages its installations (those that do not report
through a MILDEP)  through the Office of the Assistant
Secretary of Defense for Sustainment (OASD(S)). The
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Sustainment has overall
responsibility for DOD's planning, programs, and capacity
to provide mission assurance through facilities investment,
MILCON,   environmental restoration and compliance,
installation and operational energy resilience, and
occupational safety programs. Within OASD(S), the
Office of Facilities Management is the program manager
and policy advocate for DOD-managed  installations.

   Installation support services for DOD-managed facilities
   are generally provided by an associated DOD component
   (i.e., the defense agency, field activity, or U.S. Special
   Operations Command).  However,  if the DOD facility
   resides on a MILDEP-owned   installation, then the host
   military service may also provide certain upkeep services
   for the facility.

   Army Installations
   Within Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA),
   the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for
   Installations, Energy, and Environment, OASA (IE&E),
   establishes policy, provides strategic direction, and
   supervises all matters pertaining to infrastructure,
   installations and contingency bases, energy, and
   environmental programs for the Army. The Office of the
   Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management
   (OACSIM),   led by the Assistant Chief of Staff for
   Installation Management (ACSIM), serves as the link
   between the Army  Secretariat and the Army's Land
   Holding Commands   (LHCs). The  ACSIM  establishes
   policies, synchronizes programs, and ensures LHCs, who
   retain the Army's real property, have the resources they
   need for infrastructure and installation services.

   With the exception of Army National Guard facilities,
   which are typically managed by states, the Army manages
   installations through its Installation Management Command
   (IMCOM).   IMCOM   handles day-to-day operations of
   Army  installations, providing services such as fire safety,
   policing, housing, and child care. IMCOM also oversees the
   Army  Safety program. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
   (USACE)   supports Army installations, and, as applicable,
   other military services and DOD components' installations,
   by providing technical expertise and capabilities. Individual
   installation management, planning, and leadership is
   provided by the installation commander, known as a
   Garrison Commander   in the Army.

   Navy Installations
   Within the Department of the Navy, the Office of the
   Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Energy, Installations
   and Environment, OASN   (EI&E), is responsible for policy
   related to the Navy's energy security; acquisition and
   disposal of real property; construction and maintenance of
   installations; protecting the safety and occupational health
   of the military and civilian personnel; environmental
   protection, planning and restoration ashore and afloat; and
   conservation of natural and cultural resources. The Deputy
   Chief of Naval Operations for Fleet Readiness and
   Logistics (OPNAV  N4) is responsible for the resourcing of
   shore installations to maintain Navy readiness.

   The Commander,   Navy Installations Command (CNIC)  is
   responsible for worldwide Navy shore installation
   management,  which includes operations, maintenance,
