What is the Army Transformation Roadmap? The Army Transformation Roadmap (ATR) paves the way for the Philippine Army to fulfill its vision of being a world-class Army that is a source of national pride by 2028. Join us in this transformative movement. With the recent charges of corruption, human rights abuses, and other issues that have beset the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), the Philippine Army (PA) believes that it is imperative to transform the military into a more credible, efficient, reliant, and responsive organization that can truly be a source of national pride for all Filipinos. It is in this light that the PA crafted, in partnership with the Institute for Solidarity in Asia (ISA), and is currently implementing the Army Transformation Roadmap (ATR). The ATR is largely based on the Performance Governance System (PGS), which is an adaptation of Harvard’s Balanced Scorecard framework into the local circumstances of the Philippines. The ATR is a long-term 18-year transformation and governance program. Its primary purpose is to transform the PA into a better, more dynamic, more capable, and more professional Army committed to its mandate of serving the people and securing the land. It aims to advance and institutionalize good governance and performance excellence; provide a long-term basis for the organizational and capability thrusts of the PA; and to establish, maintain, and synchronize the various reform initiatives. In short, the ATR expresses our earnest commitment to pursue a genuine transformation program founded on good governance and performance excellence. By adopting the PGS and implementing the ATR, the Army has already carried out the critical steps to institute reforms based on the principles of good governance and performance excellence. The PA has defined its governance charter which sets and defines the strategic direction that the organization wants to pursue. It starts with the clearly defined easy to remember core values of “Honor, Patriotism, and Duty”. It acknowledges its mandated mission which is “to organize, train, equip, deploy, and sustain ground forces in support of the AFP mission”. And, it provides a sharper edge to its stated mission by stating the core purpose which is “serving the people, securing the land”. On such foundation, it sets forth a vision that the PA is committed to actualize: “By 2028, to become a world-class Army that is a source of national pride”. youtube/watch?v=qTWtiGOb8ww Shiro
