The Marine Corps conducts its largest Service Level Training Exercise (SLTE) four times a year and can include more than four reinforced battalion-sized forces. The Marine Corps’ Integrated Training Exercise (ITX) is resource intensive and requires an enormous amount of planning hours prior to execution. Currently, the planning and scheduling for the SLTE is conducted manually and follows a standard schedule of events. The Range Schedule Assistance Tool (RSAT), a linear optimization program, will optimize SLTE schedules subject to training unit requirements, unit priority lists, and range availability. The primary output will be a deconflicted range schedule that will include the range’s assignments, training dates and times, and type of training event to serve as an initial planning document for schedule development. The RSAT will be designed to minimize penalties based on commander’s guidance, schedule changes, and unscheduled events. The main inputs for the RSAT will come from supervising commands, executing units, and range guidance. Additionally, RSAT can be used to evaluate resource and range capacity for SLTEs.
