Who owns data and has overall control of the development, distribution, security level, maintenance, and overall quality in the time-phased force and deployment data (TPFDD)?

Who owns data and has overall control of the development, distribution, security level, maintenance, and overall quality in the time-phased force and deployment data (TPFDD)?

• A. Installation deployment officer (IDO)
• B. Logistic plans and installation deployment officer (IDO)
• C. Supported commands and designated functional manager
• D. Installation commander and supported commands

Answer: (C)

Ownership of TPFDD data rests with the supported commands and the designated functional manager. The supported command holds the mission responsibility and is accountable for what needs to deploy, when, and where. The designated functional manager serves as the senior authority for a particular function (such as logistics, medical, or personnel) and is responsible for the data standards, security level, maintenance, and overall quality of information within that function. This partnership ensures the data accurately reflects requirements and is properly protected and distributed to the right planners. Roles focused only at the installation level or that mix execution with governance don’t provide the same clear governance over content, security, and quality across the entire deployment picture.
