    Workforce and tenant organization members participated in the Installation Planning Board meeting April 3 in building 220 at Fort McCoy.

    The Installation Planning Board meets once a year, according to the Fort McCoy Plans, Analysis, and Integration Office (PAIO). The board’s purpose is to develop an Integrated Priorities List in support of improving installation services and programs.

    Completion of action plans associated with the Integrated Priorities List is a measure of garrison success, PAIO officials said. The board is a forum for identifying, assessing, and providing a common-operating picture for installationwide planning requirements.

    “The IPB is an opportunity to enhance collaborative communication and decisions installation-wide, prioritize local requirements, and highlight issues for elevation to Army senior leaders,” said PAIO Chief Ken Musselwhite.

    Those who attended the meeting included Installation Management Command (IMCOM)-Readiness Director Brenda L. McCullough from Fort Bragg, N.C.; Fort McCoy senior commander and 88th Regional Support Command Commanding General Maj. Gen. Jody Daniels; Garrison Commander Col. Hui Chae Kim; Deputy Garrison Commander Col. Sheila Coker; Deputy to the Garrison Commander James A. Chen; and other leadership members and special staff from Fort McCoy garrison and tenant organizations.

    The meeting agenda included going over follow-up actions from the previous IPB session in 2018, reviewing discretionary topics, updating the Integrated Priorities List, and noting upcoming major events at the installation.

    “The IPB goes through all these steps in the meeting to ensure resourcing decisions are aligned with the Installation Strategic Plan and operationalize with the IMCOM principle of sustainability,” Musselwhite said. “This meeting forum also allows us to disseminate information and demonstrate integration of garrison requirements and planning efforts with the senior commander, tenant organizations, and other installation stakeholder planning functions.”

    The next IPB meeting is planned for 2020.

    Fort McCoy has supported America’s armed forces since 1909.

    The post’s varied terrain, state-of-the-art ranges, new as well as renovated facilities, and extensive support infrastructure combine to provide military personnel with an environment in which to develop and sustain the skills necessary for mission success.
