AIR's functional realignment will establish an infrastructure that will enable a comprehensive approach to becoming more efficient and effective known as “AIR Transformation.” As a result of realignment, all product directorates will be eliminated and replaced with functional divisions. Field offices will be realigned under new routing codes, but will stay intact and continue to provide the public the same service they do today.
