1 Brief to Small Business Jim Smerchansky Deputy Commander Systems Engineering, Interoperability, Architecture & Technology Marine Corps Systems Command

2 Commandant s Priorities We will continue to provide the best trained and equipped Marine units to Afghanistan. This will not change. This remains our top priority! We will rebalance our Corps, posture it for the future and aggressively experiment with and implement new capabilities and organizations. We will better educate and train our Marines to succeed in distributed operations and increasingly complex environments. We will keep faith with our Marines, our Sailors and our families. The objective is to allow Marines to travel lighter, with less, and move faster through the reduction in size and amount of equipment and the dependence on bulk supplies. - Gen Amos, 35 th Commandant s Planning Guidance
