Achieving a high execution rate two months before the end of the fi scal year set up the Air Force for a well thought-out and executed end-of-year closeout and a smooth glide path into the next fi scal year, Smith said. For the second consecutive year, AFIMSC established a war room from its headquarters in San Antonio manned by approximately 30 budget analysts and fi nancial experts during the last two weeks in September. The nerve center increased capabilities to quickly validate requirements. Capitalizing on lessons learned from 2017, AFIMSC tweaked the nerve center with innovative ideas and processes. “We increased the capacity of the war room with better logistics and improved communication,” Smith said. Offi cials paired AFIMSC budget analysts with representatives from every Air Force major command and seated them side by side. The analysts communicated with installations by phone, email and live Defense Collaborative Services. AFIMSC issued cell phones for detachment analysts so they could be reached when they were not in the nerve center. According to Maj. Brian Hoff man, war room offi cer in charge, the co-location of AFIMSC
