• OSD has mandated that the Service move toward a single Readiness reporting system – Defense Readiness Reporting System (DRRS).

• Our legacy systems were shaped during the cold war period, when the Army resourced and tracked readiness of units based on concept of “first to fight, first to resource”.

• The new readiness reporting system provides the Army two major improvements

– First it will allow better readiness reporting for the high OPTEMO conditions inherent with GWOT. As the Army moves to ARFORGEN construct for preparing units for deployments, DRRS-A will support this process.– Secondly, the Army will be able to retire it’s DOS based PC reporting system and move to a WEB based architecture.

Why the Army is Moving to DRRS-A

• Like the USR it remains the “Commander’s report”.– Data is validated by the chain of command and quality-controlled by

the Army institutional processes.

• Transforms the Army’s “business processes” and mindset for assessing and reporting readiness.

• Looks like the familiar USR, but with enhanced features.– Maintains GCCS-J/GSORTS and JOPES compatibility and

interoperability.– Fulfills the Army’s command and control data requirements,

supporting pay, personnel, training support, and others.– Protects sensitive and classified readiness information across the

Army.– Supports current and future Army and DoD systems and

requirements (such as ARFORGEN).

NETUSR in Development

What is not part of the application yet

Development of the NetUSR application is ongoing, scheduled for completion and deployment in October. The following functionality has not yet been incorporated into NetUSR.

1. USR Report Sections - Some sections of the report are not complete or not there at all at this time.

a. Equipment Readiness Information (The Equipment Readiness page is being reworked, we are not looking for feedback on the Equipment Readiness page that exists now.)

b. Equipment On-Loan data

c. Mission Accomplishment Estimate data

d. Overall Readiness Ratings (C Level and associated data)

2. Special Report Types – the system has regular reports, no special report types are in completed yet (i.e. it does not yet support Composite, Change, Validation reports)

3. Report Validation, Review and Submission – functionality in this area has not been developed

a. Report Validation: a page that shows all errors with the USR in one place.

b. Review and approval – approving the USR when complete

c. Routing a USR – sending the USR up to the higher level chain of command

d. Export or Import of a completed USR – You can export and import the raw data used to create a USR, but not the completed USR

4. NetUSR – Standalone – The NetUSR Standalone Application has the same functionality as the Dev Net version (except for some items on the “Report Options” menu. Although the standalone application is completed, there is no automated install that would make it possible for someone in the field to install NetUSR Standalone.
