myfamily housing (AFH), and non-appropriated fund (NAF) projects that are submitted to Congress for approval.

d. Provides source data for the annual Department of Defense

(DOD) Base Structure Report.

2–2. ASIP database

a. The ASIP database is an unclassified database created from

unclassified versions of other source databases. The informationit

contains is “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY (FOUO)”.

b. The ASIP source databases include—

(7) Other tenants (OT).

c. The ASIP database is created and maintained by the Facility

Planning Division of the OACSIM (DAIM–FDP–P). It is updated

semiannually.

d. The ASIP database contains the authorized planning populations (officer, warrant officer, enlisted, U.S. civilian, andother civili a n ) o f a l l u n i t s , a c t i v i t i e s , a n d o t h e r t e n a n t s l o c a t e d a t

Army installations, to include Reserve Component (RC) installations,

over the current fiscal year and the next six years. It contains information at theunit identification code (UIC) level of detail for modification table ofequipment and organization (MTOE) and table of

distribution and allowances (TDA) units and activities. For non-documented derivative units and tenant activities without a UIC, such as

permanent contractor or dependent school personnel, a unique code

is provided for the UIC field by the OACSIM.

2–3. ASIP Installation Report

The ASIP Installation Report is—

a. An FOUO document produced from the ASIP database by the

OACSIM. Like the database, the report reflects the authorized planning populations of Army installations for the current fiscal year

and the next six years, except it is in hard-copy format.

b. Prepared in separate volumes for active Army installations in

the United States and Panama, Europe, and the Pacific; forARNG

installations; and for USAR installations.

MACOMs on a semiannual basis immediately after the update of

the ASIP database.

2–4. ASIP electronic user interface

The ASIP electronic UI is—

a. An automated companion product to the printed ASIP Installation Report. The database is identical, but it is stored electronically

in a read only mode. The UI is designed to provide very rapid access

to data using modern search and retrieval techniques.
