The Army Force Generation Synchronization Tool (AST) Project Team provided the Army with the means to view the predicted impact of today'ss synchronization decisions on tomorrow'ss
utilization of the Army inventory moving through ARFORGEN. AST on screen capabilities consolidates data from multiple sources, applies existing or what if business rules, simulates the
outcome, and automatically depicts results thereby eliminating lengthy manual, linear, and presentation-based methods previously employed.
AST cut single Courses of Action development time from days to minutes while enabling multiple Courses of Action production within the same timeframe. By combining the stove-piped
functions inherent in Army Force Generation, AST provides a means for the Army to have a collective, common view of Army Force Generation from the unit through the service level.
