The Central Manpower Base's (CMPB) move to Gombak will provide more integrated and efficient services relating to National Service.

Gombak Base was assessed to be the best available site to house CMPB and other related agencies as it provides convenience and accessibility because of its proximity to the upcoming Cashew MRT station.

The Defence Ministry is also planning to call a public tender for the new integrated CMPB by early 2016, and costs will be made known. Space constraints at the current CMPB had led to important departments being located elsewhere.

One example is the SAF Military Medicine Institute, where pre-enlistees are assessed for medical conditions.

CMPB began operations in its current location at Depot Road Camp in 1989, and over the years grew to include various departments such as the SAF Career Centre and Defence Psychology Department. The aim was to centralise facilities to better serve pre-enlistees.
