Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC)
BRAC is a means by which the department of defense (DoD) reconfigures its infrastructure into one where operational capacity is optimized for both war fighting capability and efficiency, and joint activity opportunities are aggressively pursued. BRAC furthers defense transformation, maximizes joint utilization of defense resources, reallocates military personnel from supporting and security unnecessary and underutilized infrastructure to the point of the war fighting spear, and thus saves taxpayers money. BRAC provides DoD a comprehensive review of its installation inventory, elimination of excess physical capacity, alignment of base structure with post-cold war force structure, and opportunities for joint operations.
