  1. JTF Training Crisis Action Planning Situational Awareness UNCLASSIFIED

  2. Situational Awareness Overview • Roles/responsibilities of Joint codes (J codes) • Types of planning • Definition of a crisis • Joint operational planning functions, process and procedures • Monitor and gather information and take appropriate action • Access and analyze information associated with a current situation

  3. MULTINATIONAL FORCE STANDING OPERATING PROCEDURES (MNF SOP) Version 1.6 February 2006 Reference JP 3-0 Doctrine for Joint Operations JP 4-0 Logistics JP 5-0 Joint Operation Planning JP 5-00.2 JTF Planning Guidance & Procedures CJCS 3500.05A JTF HQ Master Training Guide MNF SOP

  4. Joint Operation Planning Two types of joint operation planning: Contingency Planning: The Joint Operation Planning and Execution System planning activities that occur in non-crisis situations. The Joint Planning and Execution Community uses contingency planning to develop operation plans for a broad range of contingencies based on requirements identified in planning directives. Contingency planning underpins and facilitates the transition to crisis action planning.

  5. Joint Operation Planning Crisis Action Planning: The Joint Operation Planning and Execution System process involving the time-sensitive development of joint operation plans and operation order for the deployment, employment, and sustainment of assigned and allocated forces and resources in response to an imminent crisis. Crisis action planning is based on the actual circumstances that exist at the time planning occurs. JP 1-02/5-0

  6. What is a Crisis? “An incident or situation involving a threat to the United States, its territories, citizens, military forces, possessions, or vital interests that develops rapidly and creates a condition of such diplomatic, economic, political, or military importance that commitment of U.S. military forces and resources is contemplated to achieve national objectives.” It can occur with little or no warning; it’s fast-breaking and requires accelerated decision-making. Sometimes a single crisis may spawn another crisis elsewhere.” JP 1-02/5-0

  7. Develop a Military Course of Action Key Points Crisis Action Planning (CAP) Procedures: • Three Function process • Key Documents • Warning Order (initiates) • Commander’s Estimate (product) • Requires Concurrent & Collaborative Planning

  8. CAP Functions I Situational Awareness II Planning III Execution

  9. CAP Functions Situational Awareness encompasses two activities: situation development and situation assessment… • Situation Development –an event with possible national security implications occurs, is recognized and is reported. • Situational Assessment – continually monitoring political, military, economic, social, infrastructure, information, and other factors; those events affecting national security are identified and reported to the National Military Command Center (NMCC).

  10. CAP Process Features • Rapid Exchange of Information • Analysis of situations affecting possible Courses of Action (COAs) • Developing valid COAs • Selecting the best COAs • Coordinating plans & order supporting execution

  11. Situational Awareness Force Agreement Database OPLAN CONPLAN Public Affairs Close-hold Treaty Access News Groups NEO Plan Flexible Deterrent Options (FDOs) Intelligence Legal Obligations Psychological Operations (PSYOP) Expertise Deception

  12. Situational Awareness (Check List) • What are the national and military strategies and US national security policy for the region or CAP Phase country? • What is the nature of the conflict or crisis that might require military resources to resolve it? Can other elements of National Power (economic, diplomatic, information) be used to influence the outcome? If so, what type of military support will help need? What type of support can they provide to the JTF? • What are or might be the potential mission or tasks from the National Authorities (NA)? • Will action be unilateral or multinational? • What is the current situation (who, what, when, where and why)? • What steps can be taken to collect additional information?

  13. Situational Awareness (Check List) • What is the status of communication with key US and foreign government agencies and personnel? Has a list of key phone numbers been established ? • Has the supported combatant commander developed an intelligence collection plan? • Has the supported combatant command deployed sufficient organic reconnaissance resources? Should national assets be tasked or repositioned? • Has the supported combatant commander established a joint communications control center? • Are any US or multinational forces conducting operations with the joint task force (JTF) joint operations area (JOA)? What type? Duration? Who commands those forces? Joint Pub 5-00.2
