TEAM (RMT)
A. U.S. Coast Guard Incident Management Handbook, P3120.17 (series)

Management and Crisis Response, COMDTINST M3010.24A
C. DCMS Contingency Support Plan 9930 (series)
1. Operational Logistics Command (LOGCOM) is soliciting reserve
volunteers to be a part of the Reserve Mobilization Team (RMT) as
collateral duty for the period of May 2024 to May 2027.
2. Background: The RMT will be a DCMS Deployable Support Element
(DSE) that will consist of highly motivated and proficient reserve
yeomen. The establishment of the RMT is the direct result of field
concerns regarding Reserve order accuracy and timeliness during
short-fused contingency response.
3. Role and Capabilities of the RMT:
    a. Upon contingency request for forces, the RMT will activate
from their remote locations to generate orders and provide primary
administrative support for mobilized reservists.
    b. The RMT will provide administrative, Personnel and
Administration (P&A) and SPO support during, large scale
contingencies. The RMT is responsible for vetting members,
originating, authorizing, and finalizing mobilization orders, and
performing centralized pay transactions.
    c. The RMT will continue this support throughout contingency
response while also preparing for demobilization and DD-214
issuance.
4. Eligibility Requirements:
    a. Solicitation is open to all reserve YN3 to PERS4.
    b. Although RMT duties will largely be performed remotely,
applicants must meet all readiness requirements for worldwide
deployment.
    c. Selection requires a 24-month commitment. Requests to obtain
ADOS outside of RMT will require approval from the RMT manager to
ensure adequate staffing capabilities.
    d. Members currently assigned to the Incident Management Assist
Team, Deployable Specialized Forces (DSF) Units, Joint Field Office
staff, or Area/District IMT are not eligible.
5. Application Requirements: Submit a one-page resume and Command
Endorsement Memo to SMB-LogisticsCommand-LOG1-Admin NLT 20 May 2024.
    a. The resume should summarize current and previous positions and
relevant qualifications and certifications.
    b. The Command Endorsement memo must address support of training
and mobilization requirements and the capability of the member to
work independently. It cannot be overstated that command support is
essential for success in this collateral duty opportunity. In return
for the time commitment, home units will gain highly trained
personnel who can assist in strengthening the unit's knowledge of
mobilization processes.
6. LOG-1, the Personnel and Reserve Force Readiness Division within
LOGCOM, will manage the RMT Program. RMT selections will be
announced via email on or about 30 May 2024. For additional
information, please contact CDR Jasmine Barnard or CWO Sara Cook
at SMB-LogisticsCommand-LOG1-Admin. Once selected, RMT members will
receive initial training and develop in-depth knowledge of reserve
mobilization and orders processing.
