TOTAL INTEGRATION MOBILIZATION EXECUTION SYSTEM (TIMES)

TIMES will provide the Air Force with a single, integrated system of software suites linking Airmen of the Air Reserve Component to deployment and/or mobilization authorities that supports a rapid and accurate information flow from the first identification of a requirement through the processing and delivering of orders to start pay and benefits in an auditable manner.
