ASC integrates and synchronizes the delivery of USAMC and materiel enterprise capabilities at echelon from the strategic to the tactical level. ASC delivers materiel readiness, force generation, power projection, and sets the conditions for future readiness at home station. ASC forward stationed capabilities provide mission command to all USAMC assets in theater and shape the logistics environment and help set the theater to accelerate force reception into theater. Deployable logistics support elements provide expeditionary corps and divisions the ability to rapidly integrate into the theater delivery of USAMC capabilities at echelon for responsive support to warfighter priorities. ASC serves as the Army’s lead materiel integrator, identifying excess and obsolete major end items, then providing disposition instructions to units. It is responsible for integrating logistics support with strategic partners and links the national sustainment base with the expeditionary Army. Major mission areas include logistics synchronization in support of Army Sustainable Readiness Model, Army pre-positioned stocks (APS), materiel management, the life cycle management command Logistics Assistance Program, and the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program. Mission execution is through a global network of organizations to include the ASC staff, Army field support brigades, Army field support battalions, logistics readiness centers, and logistics support elements embedded in units from brigade to corps.
