iFORCECOM: Your Window To The FORCECOM World

iFORCECOM is the website of the United States Coast Guard Force Readiness Command, which is part of the Modernization Effort.

The Force Readiness Command (FORCECOM) is the Coast Guard's first command solely responsible for preparing forces to perform missions and execute them properly.

FORCECOM is charged with the current and future readiness of the Coast Guard's workforce -- Active Duty, Reserve, Auxiliary, Civilian and Contractor -- to ensure they will be ready when called to execute their missions.

FORCECOM Cutter Readiness Dashboard Rolls Out


The cutter section of the Readiness Dashboard is now available for a two-week test in CGBI following months of development that included collaboration between the FORCECOM Measurement Implementation Team (FORMIT), the Coast Guard Research and Development Center, the Performance Technology Center, CG-0954, OSC Martinsburg and the Aviation, Cutter and DOG communities.

At implementation, the cutter section of the Dashboard reports on PACAREA Mature Class cutters and WHEC 378s via the recently updated Mature Class and WHEC SORTS (Status of Readiness and Training System) decision aids with added dashboard data transmission functionality. The Performance Technology Center has completed work on the WMEC (270) and WMEC (210) decision aids, and is nearing completion of the WMSL SORTS decision aid.

In addition to cutters, the Readiness Dashboard will also monitor the readiness of FORCECOM aviation units and the Deployable Operations Group (DOG). Both the aviation and DOG sections are being finalized and will be brought “online” in the near future.

The dashboard uses CGBI’s software and metrics to provide current personnel, equipment, supply and training information to senior decision-makers and the distributed workforce.

Thanks,
