Total Army Capital Budgeting (TACAB)

Authors: Linda Coblentz; CENTER FOR ARMY ANALYSIS FORT BELVOIR VA
Abstract:
TACAB determined a method to better include the requirements for small-scale contingencies (SSCs) while making force structure decisions. TACAB developed a stochastic optimization for determining alternative Army force structures and considers the requirements for major contingencies as well as for small scale contingencies (SSCs). The stochastic element of the optimization represents the probabilities associated with SSCs occurring.
