1. The Air Force annually determines its wartime manpower requirements
through the Wartime Planning Exercise. As part of this exercise, we are
required to conduct the annual Individual Mobilization Augmentation (IMA)
requirements review. The objective of this effort is to correctly size the
number and types of IMA authorizations, based upon applicable requirements
defined in AFR 26-1, Volume II, Chapter 3 (Atch 1).
2. As your part of this exercise, please submit justification for IMA
positions that are new and/or have been created by realignment of currently
authorized positions. Also, provide information on currently authorized
positions that were not justified and submitted last year. The format for
justification is at page 3 of Attachment 2. General officer positions should
be identified but not justified as AF/MPG annually approves/disapproves these
IMA authorizations.
3. Recommended deletions of IMA authorizations should be identified but do
not require justification. Page 1 of Attachment 2 is to be used to detail IMA
authorizations by category and status. Page 2, AF Form 271, is to be pre-
pared to reflect current IMA authorizations, planned deletions, and proposed
changes by grade for FY 83.
4. Request your assistance in improving the quality of this annual review.
Your submission should arrive in AS/MMO NLT 15 May 1982. AS/MMO project
officer is Lt Col D. W.-Jones, extension 74021/74022.

*Chapter 3
INI)IVIDUAL MOBILIZATION
AUGMENTATEE AUTHORIZATIONS
3-1. General Information:
a. This chapter defines Individual Mobilization
Augmentee (IMA) authorizations and states the policy
and procedures for determining such authorizations.
The effect of manpower authorizations on logistics,
personnel, and fiscal planning dictates that these
authorizations receive complete and objective review
at all echelons. All IMA authorizations will be
reviewed annually as part of the Wartime Manpower
Planning Exercise (MANREQ).
b. IMA authorizations are military manpower
requirements identified by individual skill on a
selective basis to meet immediate needs of contingency
and wartime/emergency plans. IMAs are Selected
Reserve members of the Ready Reserve of the United
States Air Force Reserve (USAFR) assigned to active
Air Force units against valid wartime requirements.
The Air National Guard has no IMA authorizations.
c. Major commands (MAJCOMs) and separate
operating agencies (SOAs) with IMA authorizations
and limited training capability may develop agree-
ments with other MAJCOMs and SOAs in order to
effect mobilization readiness training.
3-2. Policies Governing IMA Authorizations:
a. Justify each IMA authorization solely on the basis
of a requirement to support war or contingency plans
for which active force resources are insufficient to
meet immediate augmentation needs (within 24 hours
plus travel). (Exception: See paragraph 3-5).
b. Develop requests for IMA authorizations under
paragraphs 3-3, 3-4, and 3-5.
c. Do not base IMA authorizations on:
(1) Peacetime tasks and missions.
(2) Peacetime manning shortages.
(3) Operational attrition on or after D-Day.
(4) Replacement of military personnel projected to
be unavailable for duty on any given D-Day (leave,
hospitalization, Professional Military Education
(PME), etc.).
(5) Replacement of civilian employees who are
Ready Reservists of the military services.
(6) Activities solely in support of survival,
recovery, and reconstitution of an Air Force organiza-
tion.
d. The General Officer Manning and Position
Review Board validates IMA authorizations for
general officers. If approved, positions are forwarded
to the Director of Manpower and Organization (IIQ
USAF'/MPM) for inclusion in the appropriate
Manpower Allocation Report.
e. The Judge Advocate General, Surgeon General,
and Chief of Chaplains will develop their individual
functional requirements. The Director of Manpower
and Organization (I-IQ USAF/MPM) will validate
these requirements and allocate them to HQ ARPC.
Each functional manager will ensure each wartime
gaining MAJCOM and SOA knows the specific
number of IMA authorizations that will belong to
them upon mobilization. Each MAJCOM and SOA
must document these requirements in their annual
MANREQ Exercise.
f. Enlisted authorizations will be staff sergeant (E-
5) or higher, except for those authorizations approved
in support of joint mobilization augmentation docu-
ments (part III of Joint Manpower Programs).
g. Workload requirements during the initial 30 days
of any contingency will be based on 309 man-hours per
month. The sustained wartime work-month man-hour
availability of 242 hours (outlined in volume III,
chapter 1) will be used with measured and projected
wartime workloads to compute wartime manpower
requirements. Also, manpower made available by the
planned wartime reduction or elimination of
peacetime-only workload will be reapplied to satisfy
wartime requirements before requesting IMA
authorizations.
h. Air Force component commands in overseas
theaters should state unified command operations
plan (OPLAN) augmentation requirements in Time-
Phased Force and Deployment Lists (TPFDLs), using
the Manpower Force Packaging System (MANFOR).
AFR 28-3 provides direction and guidance for using
MANFOR in the statement of required augmentation
forces. IMA authorizations for overseas commands
are discouraged and will be validated only when the
requirement is stated in approved TPFDLs.
i. HQ USAF/MPM will allocate specific grades by
authorization to the MAJCOMs and SOAs through the
Manpower Allocation Report, RCS: HAF-
MPM(AR)7112. Grade authorizations for IMA
positions identified in the Manpower Authorization
Transaction Report, part "A," RCS: HAF-
MPM(AR)7102 will not exceed the overall grades
approved in the Manpower Authorization Transaction
Register.
3-3. How to Determine IMA Authorizations:
a. Base IMA authorizations on the need for wartime
augmentation directly related to wartime/emergency
requirements and other wartime manpower tasking
that requires an immediate response. Each MAJCOM
and SOA will determine total wartime manpower
requirements annually according to the guidance for
the Wartime Manpower Planning Exercise
(MANREQ) issued by IIQ USAF/MPM and for
Support Force Sizing (FORSIZE) issued by IIQ
USAP/XOX. Based on the guidance provided,
MAJCOMs and SOAs will determine their capability
to meet the established requirements using the
resources of assigned active units and reserve Force

units gained through mobilization. Any deficit
between peacetime and wartime requirements will
form the basis for substantiating an IMA authoriza-
tion request in the MANREQ Phase III Report.
b. Use the following procedures to determine the
requirement for an IMA authorization:
(1) Identify the specific wartime/emergency plan
which states the requirement for augmentation, and
document the requirement and factors bearingon the
manpower determination procedure. (Exception: see
paragraph 3-5.)
(2) Apply approved manpower standards and
guides to compute total monthly manpower require-
ments by function, grade, and AFSC to perform
wartime missions identified in paragraph 3-3b(1). Use
both surge and sustained wartime man-hour-avail-
ability in the computations. Quantify the projected
wartime workloads to be supported using the most
current wartime planning guidance.
(3) Subtract applicable active and Reserve Force
unit authorizations from wartime requirements
derived in 3-3b(2) to obtain total unfilled require-
ments. IMA authorizations may be developed against
this unfilled requirement if the requirement occurs on
M-Day for a "full" or "total" mobilization and the
overall MAJCOM or SOA's MANREQ Phase II report
does not show untasked authorizations in the
requested skill (AFSC). Requirements for general
officers and authorizations external to the Air Force
are exceptions to this procedure. They will be
determined by the responsible agency.
c. Identify individual wartime skill shortages in the
MANREQ (Phase II). Establish IMA authorizations
when no other alternatives have been found to satisfy
immediate wartime manpower augmentation
requirements.
d. IMA authorizations found to be excess to
immediate wartime requirements will be deleted
within 12 months or when a position is vacated, which-
ever occurs first. Validated requirements without
IMAs assigned will be filled from other sources upon
mobilization (for example, untasked active duty,
Individual Ready Reserve (IRR), Reserve or retired
individuals).
e. Any change in an existing IMA authorization in
organization, grade, or AFSC constitutes a change of
requirement. Therefore, the existing authorization
will be deleted and a request for a new IMA authoriza-
tion justified and requested through IIQ
USAF/MPMX as part of the annual MANREQ
Exercise (Phase III). Out-of-cycle changes will not
normally be made except in circumstances that would
seriously affect the prosecution of the war or national
security.
f. Use the following justification format when sub-
mitting a new IMA request:
(1) Identify specific organization to be
augmented.
(2) Identify element or function involved.
(3) Identify number, grade and AFSC of added
positions.
(a) Number of current active-duty authoriza-
tions in work center (military and civilian) by grade
and AFSC.
(b) Number of current IMA authorizations in
work center by grade and AFSC.
(4) Identify an appropriate training and pay
category and program element code (PEC) for each
added position.
(5) Identify the specific wartime or emergency
plan which states the requirement for augmentation.
Document the requirement and factors bearing on the
manpower determination procedure.
(a) Specify if the requirement is not stated in a
specific wartime or emergency plan but is required
for national security per paragraph 3-5a and b.
(b) Develop workload data according to
paragraphs 3-2g, 3-3b(2) and (3).
(c) Explain why IMAs are considered the most
mission-effective resource to meet the requirement.
(d) Explain why the requirement is military
essential.
(e) Justify why the position should not be
reimbursable. This applies only to requests originat-
ing in federal agencies outside of the DOD unless the
provision for such resources is a statutory responsi-
bility of DOD.
(6) Attach an AF Form 271 summarizing the cur-
rent MAJCOM or SOA IMA program plus new totals
based on this request. An example is in attachment 2.
3-4. Wartime Augmentation Requirements
External to the Air Force:
a. Wartime manpower augmentation requirements
for agencies external to the Air Force, such as joint or
unified commands, international organizations, other
DOD services and agencies, and other government
agencies, will be considered with all CONUS wartime
augmentation requirements and processed in the
same manner. Both internal and external USAF aug-
mentation requirements will be tasked to appropriate
commands. Commands tasked for support of external
augmentation requirements in joint augmentation
documents (part III of Joint Manpower Programs)
will annually evaluate their ability to support these
requirements from allocated active and Reserve
Forces unit resources not required for deployment,
CONUS training, systems development, or logistic
support for the national strategy. External
requirements thatexceed tasked command's available
sources may be justification for the allocation of IMA
authorizations under the procedures in paragraphs 3-
3b and c.
b. MAJCOMs and SOAs will assist IIQ
USAF/MPM by providing information related to
validation of IMA requirements at commands and
agencies outside of the Air Force.
3-5. Assistance in Support of National Security
Requirements or Administrative Management
and Training of Reserve Members:

AFR 26-1 Vol II(C1) 21 July 1981
a. IMA authorizations may be justified on the Air
Staff or in organizations above wing level to support
national security requirements when a military-
essential wartime requirement cannot be filled from
active force resources.
b. For the purpose of developing IMA requirements
the term "national security" includes those require-
ments directly related to the war effort but not covered
in any specific war or contingency plan. An example
would be Air Force augmentation of external DOD or
federal agencies or CONUS-sustaining requirements
not addressed in an OPLAN but vital to war-fighting
efforts.
c. IMA authorizations may be partially justified to
assist in the administrative management and training
of USAFR personnel participating in the IMA
program when it can be demonstrated that:
(1) The use of Reservists is economical, and
(2) An IMA will exercise the leadership and
supervisory skills normally required for a person in
that position and associated rank, and
(3) It would not degrade proficiency in their
primary wartime responsibilities.
d. Administrative management will not be the sole
justification for an IMA authorization, but may be an
additional duty of senior IMA positions that have a
valid primary wartime tasking. Active duty personnel
in MAJCOMs and SOAs retain prime responsibility
for operation and management of IMA programs.
3-6. Reporting Instructions:
a. Instructions in chapter 7 and AFM 26-749 will be
used for creating and maintaining command man-
power data system (CMDS) unit authorization files for
IMAs and reporting in the HAF-MPM(AR)7102
report, file part c.
b. Source of data elements for identifying IMA
authorizations in CMD.S files is AFM 300-4, volume 1,
ADF-AI-780. Code 3 is used to identify IMA auth-
orizations within to the Air Force. Codes 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
and 9 identify IMA authorizations for organizations
outside of the Air Force such as joint or unified com-
mands, international organizations, Joint Chiefs of
Staff (JCS) activities or functions, and activities
identified by HQ USAF/MPM which are outside the
DOD.
