  of the functions of disbursing, banking, payment support, accounting, internal controls, and financial data
  analytics. Resource management consists of the functions of programming, budget formulation, budget
  distribution, budget execution, accounting, internal controls, and financial data analytics. For detailed
  information on financial management, see FM 1-06.
  PERSONNEL SERVICES
  1-6. Personnel services are sustainment functions that man and fund the force, maintain Soldier and family
  readiness, promote the moral and ethical values of the nation, and enable the fighting qualities of the Army
  (ADP 4-0). Personnel services include planning, coordinating, and sustaining personnel efforts at the
  operational and tactical levels. Personnel services include human resources (HR) support, legal support,
  religious support, and band support. For detailed information see ADP 4-0, FM 1-0, FM 1-05, FM 3-84, and
  ATP 1-19.
  HEALTH SERVICE SUPPORT
  1-7. Army health service support is support and services performed, provided, and arranged by Army
  Medicine to promote, improve, conserve, or restore the behavioral and physical well-being of personnel by
  providing direct patient care that include medical treatment (organic and area support) and hospitalization,
  medical evacuation to include medical regulating, and medical logistics to include blood management (FM
  4-02). Army HSS is a critical capability embedded within formations across all warfighting functions. For
  additional information, see FM 4-02.
  1-8. The Army Health System (AHS) is a component of the Military Health System that is responsible for
  operational management of the health service support and force health protection missions for training, pre-
  deployment, deployment, and post-deployment operations. The Army Health System includes all mission
  support services performed, provided, or arranged by the Army Medicine to support health service support
  and force health protection mission requirements for the Army and as directed, for joint, intergovernmental
  agencies, coalition, and multinational forces (FM 4-02). The force health protection mission falls under the
  protection warfighting function and will not be covered in detail in this publication. For additional
  information on force health protection, see ADP 3-37. For a complete description of AHS see FM 4-02.
  PRINCIPLES OF SUSTAINMENT
  1-9. A principle is a comprehensive and fundamental rule or an assumption of central importance that guides
  how an organization approaches and thinks about the conduct of operations (ADP 1-01). Army sustainment
  operations are guided by fundamental principles that apply in large-scale combat operations as well as any
  other operation along the conflict continuum.
  1-10. The eight principles of Army sustainment operations (integration, anticipation, responsiveness,
  simplicity, economy, survivability, continuity, and improvisation) are shown in figure 1-1. These principles
  are interdependent and must be synchronized in time, space, and purpose. The principles of sustainment are
  essential to enabling freedom of action, extending strategic and operational reach, and prolonging endurance.
  For additional information, see ADP 4-0. Army sustainment leaders should consider application of the
  principles using the following:
  • Integration. Sustainment leaders must integrate sustainment with joint and multinational partners
  to maximize effects and resources.
  • Anticipation. Sustainment leaders must visualize and prepare resources for future operations.
  • Responsiveness. Sustainment leaders must be able to deliver capabilities and resources to meet a
  rapidly changing situation.
  • Simplicity. Sustainment leaders must remove unnecessary complexity of processes and procedures
  to deliver effective support.
  • Economy. Sustainment leaders must practice efficient management, discipline, prioritization, and
  allocation of resources.
  • Survivability. Sustainment leaders must incorporate protective measures to increase survivability
  in all training and operations.
  • Continuity. Sustainment leaders must strive to seek integrated and focused networks linking
  sustainment to operations.
