POINT PAPER
ON
AIR FORCE RESERVE COMMAND RECRUITING SERVICE (AFRCRS)
(HQ AFRC Interface & Air Component Recruiting Synergy)
BACKGROUND
As a Direct Reporting Unit to Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC), Recruiting Service is fully
integrated within HQ AFRC in daily activities including manning issues, mission changes-
Roles & Missions Assessment Team (RMAT), execution year budgeting-Financial
Management Board (FMB), Programmed Objective Memorandum (POM), Community Action
Information Board (CAIB), Chief Information Officer (CIO) Board, recruit training (BMT &
TTS rqmts), recruit bonuses and benefits (enlistment bonuses, MGIB, tuition assistance), Status
of Resources and Training System (SORTS readiness), Military Personnel issues and
entitlements, and other key staff interface requirements. As such, mission effectiveness and
customer support could suffer greatly by relocating AFRCRS away from Its parent MAJCOM.
Air Component Recruiting Services already work together in areas that "make sense" and
provide synergy as indicated in this paper. Moving HQ AFRCRS to Randolph will not increase
these efforts. Initiatives concerning AF active/reserve recruiting service synergies have
previously been explored on numerous occasions. In each case, involved parties mutually
agreed organizational change risks far outweighed minimal potential benefits.
Previous reviews ranged from full-blown AF component recruiting service consolidation-
including ANG (FYO4/OS and FY91/92) to smaller-scale "synergy reviews" in FY93/94 and
FYOO. There were also reviews prior to '91, but dates are not readily available. Following each
review, AF activereserve components agreed to continue working together as opportunities
arise while remaining highly successful independent organizations.
DISCUSSION
AFRCRS at Robins AFB
- Enables Reserve Recruiting to participate in daily mission-essential tasks and staff
interactions
-- Enables direct contact with AFRC staff agencies collaterally involved in recruiting mission
success: Directorates of Personnel, Plans & Programs, Services, Communication &
Information, Financial Management, Civil Engineering, Inspector General, Public Affairs,
Band, Operations, Logistics, Staff Judge Advocate, Security Forces, and Health Services
- Co-location enables important information flow such as classified data regarding wing
readiness (SORTS)-preventing emphasis in filling critical Command vacancies
- Enables direct interface and representation in key decision-making boards-POM, CAIB,
CIO, FMB, RMAT, risking degradation to AFRCRS mission and resourcing rqmts
-- Recruiting requirements and recommendations vital to AFRC mission successLAV Y Roea sAIP 20 5 BRC c wwrlab, MahM 4
