The Army must posture facilities to effectively orient combat capabilities where they can most effectively organize, train, and deploy to support ongoing operations worldwide.

The 'product line concept' will be used for the construction of barracks, dining facilities, company operation facilities, headquarters buildings, vehicle maintena nce shops, unit and ammunition storage facilities, aviation facilities, equipment parking areas, and other features of the program.
