Purpose

This regulation sets policies, responsibilities, and standards for implementation of the Army in-transit visibility (ITV) capability. ITV is a critical component of force visibility and asset visibility, providing commanders the information needed to conduct operations. The Department of Defense (DOD) defines ITV as the ability to track the identity, status, and location of DOD units, and non-unit cargo (excluding bulk petroleum, oils, and lubricants) and passengers; patients; and personal property from origin to consignee or destination across the range of military operations. This regulation is aligned with this definition. However, this regulation does not provide policy on passengers, patients, and personal property as identified in the overall definition of ITV. DTR 4500.9-R provides such guidance on passengers, patients, and personal property.
