The Air Squadron Command is restructured

04/03/14

Last Friday, as part of the Governance AM project that is affecting the organizational structure of the Air Force at various levels, the new "General Office of the Air Force Commander" was set up.

The new structure is placed directly under the High Commandant and is organized in two parts, "Command and Security Office" and "Personnel Office".

Colonel Fabio Rinaldi, already acting as interim manager of human resources management for the Air Squad Command, has taken on the role of Head of the General Office.

Within the constitution of the new office, the agencies of the command area and those dependent on the deputy commander were integrated into a single organizational structure, centralizing functions and professional skills of interest to the top management and rationalizing the numerical consistencies of the employees, in full compliance with the policy indications issued by the Armed Forces Summit and in implementation of the legal provisions deriving from the "Spending Review" and "Rationalization of the Military Instrument".

Shortly, the staff of the General Staff of the CSA will also be affected by a major restructuring aimed at streamlining the structure of the High Command and at the same time implementing the Air Force Staff with the experience and professional skills acquired by its staff in training / operational field.

The CSA is hierarchically superordinate to the peripheral agencies / operational departments of the Air Force (Intermediate Commands, Brigades, Flocks, Airports, Flight Groups, Radar Groups, Training Bodies, etc.). The institutional task assigned to the High Command is to prepare these Units to acquire and maintain the level of operational readiness and logistical autonomy necessary to achieve the objectives defined by the Armed Forces. As part of the process of rationalization that has been affecting the Defense Division for years, the CSA has also taken over, from 1 ° January 2011, the operational employment functions of the Employee Departments, through the structure of the Poggio Renatico Air Operations Command (COA) (Ferrara). Overall, the CSA is made up of 87 units including Commands, Departments and Supporting / Operating Bodies distributed throughout the national territory, with an organic strength of approximately 19.000 units (between military and civilian).
