2. Overview
• Due to the floundering economy of recent
memory, the United States Navy, among other
branches of the military, has had to downsize the
working force of enlisted sailors. The Navy’s means
of doing this was through a program called Perform
To Serve (or PTS) introduced in February of
2003 (NAVADMIN 03-050, 2003) as a force reshaping
tool.

3. Overview
• There are a number of issues that have arisen for
the Navy due to the implementation of Perform To
Serve and its subsequent algorithm.
• All depend about: dependability, comprised, work
ethic.
• Change is emotional for many people; many sailors
join the Navy planning to make it a career, and
when that does not pan out, it can be
heartbreaking

4. Overview
• In 2011 alone, 6,700 sailors were discharged despite
a desire to reenlist (Steele, 2012). With the economy
as it stands and unemployment reaching high
levels, the influx of the unemployed sailors is adding
to a prevailing desperation across the country.

5. Opportunity in Adversity.
• Problems: Family members that are left behind
during deployment are constantly juggling to keep
up with the lives they were once accustom too prior
to their significant other deploys for 6 to 9 months.
Stress on the families is growing into a epidemic that
requires the military to stand up entirely new
devision to support the reverse post traumatic stress
that is being felt from these deployments.

• ¿How does this solution works?
• It is simple. Use a computer or smart phone to request a
task or errand using text, voice to text, or video. Select
the amount you are willing to pay or leave blank for the
troopers to give you their pricer. The network of troopers
in and around your military base will be instantly notified
via the Twillio.com sms text service or via the google
map geolocation maps of the task.
• The trooper can then accept the task, contact you via
hour voip anonymous call back phone network to make
final arrangements to carry out the task.
• Once the trooper is done, he is paid directly via Amazon
Web Pay or via Dwolla.com free bank to bank transfer.

• ¿Is military deployment work ups really a problem?
• Well according to NMFA's Serving the Home Front
report note that: "Training is a continuous step... and
the challenge lies in reaching the families who need
it.“
• Less that one-half of the respondents reported a
consistent level of family support throughout
predeployment, deployment, and post deployment
phases and 17 percent report no support was
available .

• National Guard Spouse responded saying " I think
the hardest part for my family was the fact that as a
Guard family, we had never been through a
deployment before. I knew nothing about that
life, the phases, anything. I felt very unsure about
where my resources were and who to call for help.
I really think that, regardless of the military
status, every family needs to have a basic
knowledge of deployment life.. be it written
resources, workshops, what have you."

• Solutions:
• We have a unique virtual assistance network built
100% of the strongest force alive.
• We take the certifications and skills of the active
duty members, build it into a resume style
profile, solicited veterans owned companies looking
for those skills and connect the service members
with those small veteran owned business.
• You manage your own schedule, sign up for the
jobs that are relevant to your with out having to
quite your day time job.
