  Department of the Army; functional Army Service component commands (ASCCs); Army commands; direct
  reporting units (known as DRUs); and the Reserve Component to resource SC activities that shape an OE
  and achieve combatant command campaign plan (CCP) objectives and joint strategic campaign plan end
  states.
  Generating Force Role
  1-46. The primary role of Army generating force organizations is the long-term generation and sustainment
  of operational Army capabilities, as well as the development of partner defense and security establishments
  in support of the theater army requirements.
  1-47. The future security environment requires employment of generating force capabilities in support of
  broader SC objectives to include—
  •Developing multinational partners’ security forces and defense establishments across the domains of
  doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership and education, personnel, facilities, and policy
  (DOTMLPF-P).
  •Repairing, developing, and managing infrastructure that supports SC programs as well as stability
  operations.
  •Adapting U.S. conventional forces across the domains of DOTMLPF-P to shape the security
  environment.
  •Providing PME to foreign security force partners through the IMET program, which is one of the
  primary methods by which the generating force directly supports theater security cooperation efforts.
  1-48. Generating forces can often perform these types of missions with great effectiveness and efficiency.
  Generating forces can perform 10 USC functions either in generating and sustaining the operational Army,
  or for supporting ongoing operations. Similarly, operational Army planners should reach back to Army
  institutions to take full advantage of generating force capabilities. Those capabilities are assembled,
  exercised, and employed on a regular basis to ensure they effectively support operations when required. SC
  planners should consider leveraging organizations from the Army generating function when tasked with
  developing a partner’s generating function as these organizations maintain the knowledge, skills, and
  expertise to affect change across the DOTMLPF-P domains.
  Operating Force Role
  1-49. The Army provides operational forces to the joint force to meet combatant command requirements that
  include security cooperation. Deployed Army forces’ primary contribution to SC consists of SFA conducted
  under 10 USC authorities. Conventional forces, ARSOF, the National Guard, and the Army Reserve provide
  the bulk of the Army’s means to support and operationalize the CCP and ASCC campaign support plan
  objectives. Executed early enough and in support of broad national interests and policy goals, SC programs
  and activities provide an effective means for building relationships, building partner military capability and
  capacity, enabling and enhancing interoperability, and providing access to reduce the risks associated with
  conflict and promote stability in regions.
  Materiel Equipping Force Role
  1-50. The United States Army Security Assistance Command (USASAC), part of U.S. Army Materiel
  Command, in coordination with DSCA via DASA-DEC, manages Army security assistance, providing total
  program management, including planning, delivery, and life-cycle support of equipment, services, and
  training to and in coproduction with U.S. multinational partners. USASAC negotiates and implements
  coproduction agreements, serves as proponent for Army security assistance information management and
  financial policy, and provides logistic procedural guidance to the Army security assistance community.
  USASAC ensures transfer of defense articles and services to international and friendly foreign governments
  to promote the sharing of common burdens and build allied capabilities for self-defense and multinational
  operations. The FMS program is that portion of U.S. security assistance authorized by the Arms Export
  Control Act and conducted on the basis of formal contracts and agreements between the USG and an
