12. Capabilities Based Assessment: What Joint Seabasing capability does the JFC need in 2015? What is the objective for that capability? Where are the gaps? What material & non-material solutions meet that capability? Which solutions provide the greatest benefit to the JFC?

13. J8 Seabasing CBA Wargame Purpose: • Scope the seabasing concept for the CBA • Provide joint input to further refine the JIC • Expose / educate a large joint body to seabasing concepts Objectives: • Obtain Joint Force Commander inputs on seabasing • Identify and test potential seabasing CONOPs • Determine which 2015 capabilities (forces/assets) might be involved in a CoCom CONOPs that uses seabasing concepts • Understand feasibility of executing a CONOPs with seabasing • Determine how an enemy might react to seabasing and obtain initial threat-based risk assessment

14. Baseline Assumptions • Timeframe: 2015 • Focus: Operational Level of War • Force Structure: Joint forces based on Multi-Service Force Data (MSFD) • CONOPS: based on Defense Planning Scenario(s) • Context: Seize the Initiative Phase of MCO

15. JFCOM Joint Seabasing“Experimentation Hypothesis” IF a coherently joint expeditionary force is rapidly deployed, employed, sustained, and reconstituted/redeployed from a joint sea base, AND operations/logistics are interrelated and networked through an adaptive command and control infrastructure, ANDwith the necessary connectors and interdependent nodes/platforms/capabilities, THEN sufficient combat power can be applied earlier to deter conflict and rapidly set the conditions for defeating an adaptive, asymmetric adversary in a distributed, anti-access/area denial environment, thereby leading to earlier conflict resolution

16. How “Joint” is Joint Seabasing?!! “Deconflicted” “Interoperable” “Interdependent” JOINT SEA BASING

19. How well do Systems Perform? To answer this question, we need parameters and metrics that describe key physical characteristics of systems Function 1 Function 2 Function 3 Function 4 Function 5 COCOM System 1 System 1 System 1 System 1 Supported Component MCC System 2 System 2 System 2 System 2 System 3 System 3 System 4 System 4 System 4 System 5 System 5 ACC System 6 System 6 System 7 System 7 CJTF System 8 System 8 System 8 System 9 System 9 GCC Supporting Components System 7 System 7 SOCC System 12 System 12 System 13 System 13 Other Supporting CoComs & Agencies System 14 System 14 System 15 System 15 System 15 System 16 System 16 System 16

20. We’ve got Gaps!! . . . So What? • Helps to answer the “so what?” question • Puts identified gaps into perspective • Starting point for discussions of relative risk Function 4 Robust Function 5 Capability Effective Function 1 Function 2 Function 3 Insufficient Catastrophic Extensive Major Substantial Modest Minor Severity of Impact Risk Associated with Each Function Must Be Considered to Frame Subsequent Solutions Analysis and Resource Allocation Decisions

21. JCIDS Lessons Learned • Developing and organizing tasks/capabilities prior to any writing provides disciplined approach • Use available resources (OPLANs, UJTL, studies, etc) • Use DPS scenarios; they provide the most challenging threat and add the most rigor to concept • Get all stakeholders involved; avoid surprises • Transparency: Web sites, e-mail, conferences, workshops, etc • Feedback: Get GO/FO visibility early and often • Maintain objectivity, joint perspective
