U.S. Army Acquisition Corps (AAC) Regionalization Policy The U.S. Army Acquisition Corps (AAC) Regionalization Policy ensures that the AAC meets the goals of the Chief of Staff of the Army and Director for Acquisition Career Management (DACM) to build and develop multifunctional acquisition future leaders. While force stabilization is a result of the Regionalization Program, the program is not, and should not be considered, a stabilization program. Regionalization is intended to expand an individual’s acquisition knowledge and experience while providing opportunities for diversification. Officers identified for regionalization can expect to participate in the program up to the 48-month maximum.
