Backlog
JB HQs manpower
- Population has nearly doubled since 1999; military: 20, 491 to 37,343, family member: 31,146 to 54,076
- Infrastructure growth has not kept up with force structure growth resulting in approx $5 billion backlog
- POM cuts of approximately $700M and $92.5M scope loss further exacerbate lack of infrastructure and backlog
- Initial decisions around 2003 reflect construction growth spike in 2008 and 2009 (add of Stryker Bdes, etc)
- Negligible impact to infrastructure due to Army drawdown reduction of 4-2 Stryker Brigade
