What are your experiences with PCSing and TASP? I am currently in transition to Korea and have to say it is working. I have spoken with multiple junior Soldiers who say otherwise. I would like to get the positive and negative comments. What's good and what can be done better.

It works if the Command is involved in making sure every one is enrolled into the program and that every inbound Soldier is assigned a sponsor according to the program policies, but it doesn't stop there. There has to be some oversight to ensure that your assigned sponsors are doing their duties. Open lines of communication and following up is vital to the overall program's success.

1SG Marshall Rader. The program is working but it still has a lot of changes coming down the pipe. The EXORD for the new changes has no not been signed. Currently, the program requires you have submitted the DA 5434 to be processed to get your PCS orders. The tentative change is, that you will havve to have a sponsor to be issued your Installation Clearing Papers. Once the ACT program goes on line to the other 5 of 6 phased location (each phase has multiple locations) it will be an easier program. But unfortunately or not, the tip of the blade for failing numbers will be a the CSM level first. This program has been difficult since the changes statrted in 2011. Keeps you busy, I will say that.

In the Navy we had the sponsorship program for those PCSing in. It is a great tool and gives the incoming member a POC for anything they may need. If done correctly its a wonderful experiecnce for both sponsor and member.

I agree, the TASP appears to be improving the Process throughout the Army.
