Book excerpt: This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 5-0.1, Army Design Methodology (ADM), is part of a continuing effort focused on improving the critical and creative thinking abilities of leaders and teams to understand and solve problems. This publication describes ADM in the context of the operations process and offers techniques for forming and leading teams for group problem solving. It describes the major activities of ADM and provides techniques for framing operational environments, framing problems, developing an operational approach, and reframing. ADM takes an interdisciplinary approach to planning and problem solving incorporating ideas associated to critical and creative thinking, leadership, decisionmaking, and organizational learning. The professional field of books and articles on these disciplines is vast and rich. Readers are encouraged to continue their study on these topics beyond the material offered in this ATP. The principal audience for this publication is Army commanders and staffs. Commanders and staffs of Army headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should refer to applicable joint or multinational doctrine concerning joint or multinational planning. Trainers and educators throughout the Army will also use this publication as a guide for instructing ADM. Recognizing and solving problems is essential. Faced with unfamiliar or ambiguous situations, commanders and staffs may feel overwhelmed by uncertainty. This is where Army design methodology (ADM) can help. By first framing an operational environment and associated problems, ADM enables commanders and staffs to think about the situation before developing ways to solve those problems. Based on this understanding, commanders and staffs are better equipped to develop approaches to overcome identified problems. ADM helps commanders and staffs with understanding, visualizing, and describing operations and it is an aid to conceptual planning. During operations, ADM supports organizational learning as the command adapts to changing circumstances. The potential benefits for using ADM include: - Enhanced dialogue between commanders, staffs, and unified action partners. - Greater understanding of an operational environment. - Deeper understanding of problems and their causes. - Shared understanding of the operation's purpose. - Shared visualization of the conduct of an operation. - Enhanced guidance to drive detailed planning. - Expanded role of the assessment process. This publication contains six chapters and two appendices.

Download or read book Military Design Thinking written by Aaron P. Jackson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the newly emergent field of military design thinking, how it has been developed inside and outside of military doctrine, and the paradigms that underlie its key thinkers and methodologies. From the emergence of its initial methodologies in the late 1990s, military design thinking’s development rapidly accelerated in the mid-2000s in response to perceived failures of existing military doctrine and practice to adapt to the wars of the early 21st century. To establish a foundation for exploring the significance of the challenge military design thinking presented to dominant approaches to warfare, the early chapters in the book examine the ontology and epistemology of military doctrine, which is defined as a written expression of a military’s institutional belief system regarding how to wage war. They also explain how attempts to incorporate military design thinking into doctrine ultimately led to its assimilation into this belief system, requiring military design thinkers to continue to explore and develop the field outside of doctrine. Since the mid-2010s, non-doctrinal military design methodologies have become increasingly prominent within several Western militaries, including the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and several European militaries. Later chapters offer an exploration of the paradigms underlying non-doctrinal as well as doctrinal design methodologies. This book highlights how the field has evolved, shows how military design thinking differs from its ‘civilian’ equivalents developed in fields such as commerce and business management, and discusses how it may evolve in the near future. This book will be of much interest to students of military studies, security studies, and international relations, as well as to military professionals.

Download or read book Understanding the Military Design Movement written by Ben Zweibelson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-09 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the history and development of the military design movement, featuring case studies from key modern militaries. Written by a practitioner, the work shows how modern militaries think and arrange actions in time and space for security affairs, and why designers are disrupting, challenging, and reconceptualizing everything previously upheld as sacred on the battlefield. It is the first book to thoroughly explain what military design is, where it came from, and how it works at deep, philosophically grounded levels, and why it is potentially the most controversial development in generations of war fighters. The work explains the tangled origins of commercial design and that of designing modern warfare, the rise of various design movements, and how today’s military forces largely hold to a Newtonian stylization built upon mimicry of natural science infused with earlier medieval and religious inspirations. Why does our species conceptualize war as such, and how do military institutions erect barriers that become so powerful that efforts to design further innovation require entirely novel constructs outside the orthodoxy? The book explains design stories from the Israel Defense Force, the US Army, the US Marine Corps, the Canadian Armed Forces, and the Australian Defence Force for the first time, and includes the theory, doctrine, organizational culture, and key actors involved. Ultimately, this book is about how small communities of practice are challenging the foundations of modern defence thinking. This book will be of much interest to students of military and strategic studies, defence studies, and security studies, as well as design educators and military professionals.

This book was released on 2017-02-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-10 MCRP 4-11H NTTP 4-09.1 AFMAN 10-409-O Multi-Service Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures or Operational Contract Support February 2016 This multi-Service tactics, techniques, and procedures manual provides operational contract support (OCS) "how to" guidance for Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps commanders, their non-acquisition officer staffs, and their servicing contracting organizations. It also applies to Naval forces operating ashore when these forces are being supported by Army, Air Force, or Marine Corps units. It serves as the primary reference document for planning and execution of OCS, associated functions and tasks at the tactical level. It supersedes ATTP 4-10, Operational Contract Support, dated June 2011 and incorporates the latest guidance found in JP 4-10, Operational Contract Support, dated 16 July 2014 and other associated regulatory guidance. OCS is the process of planning for and obtaining supplies, services, and construction from commercial sources in support of joint operations. While varying in scope and scale, OCS is a critical force multiplier across all phases and types of operations. With a smaller military, less robust active component sustainment capability, and greater emphasis on Phase 0 operations, the critical importance of operational contract support will surely increase as a necessary capability in future operations. Therefore, the Services must continue to enhance their capabilities to plan and provide OCS for deployed forces. This multi-Service publication is intended to provide commanders and their staffs with the doctrinal and policy tools necessary to properly leverage the full spectrum of OCS capabilities in all phases of the operation. This multi-Service publication content remains generally consistent with that found in ATTP 4-10; however, terminology and concepts have been updated as required. Most notably, OCS is redefined and contracting support added as one of the three key OCS functions, in accordance with joint OCS doctrine. The material in this multi-Service publication is presented in a more logical format and sequence, and several new appendices provide an overview of multi-Service OCS capabilities and contain checklists to assist requiring activities and supported units with OCS planning and execution. This multi-Service publication contains five chapters: Chapter 1 introduces OCS and other OCS-related terms, introduces the OCS process and team, discusses key OCS imperatives to minimize risk of contract fraud and unauthorized commitments, and closes with a brief discussion on ethics. Chapter 2 discusses joint planning guidance and the integration of OCS requirements into tactical level planning. It also covers considerations for conducting relief in place and base drawdown and closure. Chapter 3 describes the requirements development process with a focus on requiring activity and supported unit functions. It also discusses the critical parts of a contract support request package and the contract support request package approval process. Chapter 4 covers requiring activity and supported unit responsibilities in contract performance oversight, how contract support is typically assessed, and contains sections on unauthorized commitments, ratifications, and contract closeout actions. Chapter 5 discusses contractor management planning, linking contractor management requirements to the requirements development and contract performance oversight processes, contractor management risks and challenges, contractor personnel legal status information, deployment and redeployment planning and preparation requirements, contractor management in theater, and closes with a section on ensuring fair labor processes.

This book was released on 2015-04-13 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Army Techniques Publication ATP 3-24.3 Cultural and Situational Understanding establishes the techniques and procedures used by individuals, teams, and units of the United States Army at the strategic, operational, and tactical levels of war. This ATP is applicable to all members of the Army profession and security assistance contractors. The techniques and procedures prescribed in this publication are used when engaging other government agencies, indigenous populations and institutions, intergovernmental organizations, nongovernmental organizations, and other military and nonmilitary entities to support conventional and special operations missions. This publication elaborates on doctrine contained in FM 3-24, Insurgency and Countering Insurgencies. The principal audience for ATP 3-24.3 is all members of the profession of arms. Commanders and staffs of Army headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint or multinational doctrine concerning the range of military operations and joint or multinational forces. Trainers and educators throughout the Army will also use this publication. Understanding culture is essential in conducting irregular warfare. Irregular warfare requires a deliberate application of an understanding of culture due to the need to understand a populated operational environment, what specifically is causing instability, the nature of the threat, and the ability to work with host-nation governments and security forces. Often, training and operations rely on cultural training and education to build cultural expertise, but this may not provide the cognitive link to situational understanding. This ATP does not simply focus on culture, which often generalizes aspects of a society, does not account for diversity, and rarely represents a specific working identity (as in useful and relevant identity, which is distilled or created for a purpose) for an entire region, nation, or even an area. Alternatively, this publication builds on doctrinal publications, including ADRP 5-0 and FM 3-24, which detail terms and references regarding culture and help link these foundations to situational understanding. Situational understanding facilitates Soldiers' and leaders' abilities to make informed decisions regarding their area of operations because of their recognizing "what looks right" and "what looks wrong." This ATP covers the basics of one aspect of enhancing situational understanding through cultural understanding, and links these basics to methodologies and training tools to more rapidly gain cultural understanding through a deliberate process, rather than simply gaining awareness through learned patterns by immersion in a community or area of operations. Leaders at every level need to emphasize cultural training and understanding. Developing expertise in cultural and geopolitical knowledge, understanding, and application are requirements for all Army professionals and leaders and one of the four fields of knowledge of professional military expertise. (See ADP 1.) A deliberate, synchronized and coherent plan to develop cultural expertise is vital. If leaders set the standard, their Soldiers will follow. Leaders are expected to be culturally and situational aware. They will conduct and participate in meetings, negotiations, and other exchanges with host-nation citizens in which cultural and situational understanding are essential to influence target audiences. Obtaining keen situational awareness will also help leaders recognize and understand the prerequisites of insurgency in their area of operations, enemy patterns, how insurgents use prerequisites of insurgency to get close to the local population, and ways counterinsurgents can separate insurgents from the local population.

This book was released on 2014-04-29 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 5-19 Risk Management April 2014, provides doctrinal guidance on managing risk within the conduct of operations. Administrative risk management (RM) guidance and techniques are in DA Pam 385-30. These two documents are designed to be complimentary, and in tandem, they provide guidance on the implementation of RM throughout the Army. The principal audience for ATP 5-19 is all members of the profession of arms. Commanders, staffs, leaders, Army civilians, and individual Soldiers throughout the Army will use this publication. Commanders and staffs of Army headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint or multinational doctrine concerning the range of military operations and joint or multinational forces.

Download or read book Army Tactical Standard Operating Procedures ATP 3 90 90 written by Department Army and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-09-28 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Army Techniques Publication (ATP) 3-90.90 facilitates development of standard operating procedures (SOPs) in order to enhance efficiency and adaptability across the force. ATP 3-90.90 achieves this purpose through linking to a milWiki portal under the milSuite uniform resource locator (URL) containing guidance for tactical SOPs and unclassified examples of SOPs for reference. The SOP portal provides a baseline for developing new SOPs quickly and a forum for improving existing SOPs. The portal presents best practices consistent with doctrinal principles. The Combined Arms Doctrine Directorate established the SOP portal in 2009. The authors attempted to align the original information with pertinent doctrine and regulations. Where the portal's contents differ from current doctrine and regulations, the latter take precedence. The information in the SOP portal is not authoritative doctrine. The examples in the portal do not provide ready-to-use SOPs for Army units. Soldiers developing SOPs for their units are encouraged to apply critical thinking while referring to the models and other resources to aid their own content development. At a minimum, portal users must be familiar with this ATP, Field Manuals (FMs) 5-0 and 6-99.2; Army Regulations (ARs) 25-1, 34-4, and 380-5; and Department of the Army Pamphlet (DA Pam) 25-403. Soldiers are encouraged to use the portal to collaborate, to improve the portal's contents, and to upload new SOP examples. The SOP portal is secure and requires an Army Knowledge Online or Defense Knowledge Online login. The portal's contents are unclassified. Neither this manual nor the SOP portal is intended to regulate the appearance or content of unit SOPs. This ATP uses joint terms where applicable. When formal military terms are identified in the text of this ATP, the terms are italicized and the number of the proponent manual follows the definition. A standard operating procedure is a set of instructions covering those features of operations which lend themselves to a definite or standardized procedure without loss of effectiveness. The procedure is applicable unless ordered otherwise (JP 3-31). A SOP is both standing and standard: it instructs how to perform a prescribed and accepted process established for completing a task. Features of operations that lend themselves to standardization are common and usually detailed processes performed often and requiring minimal variation each time. Well-written and properly used unit tactical SOPs enhance effective execution of tasks; the benefits of SOPs are numerous. They reduce training time, the loss of unwritten information, the commission of errors, the omission of essential steps or processes, and the time required for completion of tasks. This does not mean, however, that carrying out SOPs never requires thought or that SOPs should never change. Indeed, tactical units must change some operating procedures as rapidly as operational environments and missions change. The SOP portal helps units avoid an unnecessary loss of effectiveness that could occur by maintaining unthinking dependence on outdated written procedures. The portal also helps units avoid a loss of effectiveness that could occur when units delay writing down processes that need to become standardized. The doctrine in this manual provides techniques for developing unit tactical SOPs. Units throughout the Army can take advantage of technology to obtain guidance, collaborate in real time, and find information quickly. This manual and the SOP portal are intended to enhance operational adaptability Army-wide. In the short term, the information in the SOP portal will help units establish or improve SOPs more rapidly. In the long term, the intention is that more and more units will build SOPs using the portal and the doctrine in this manual. SOPs throughout the Army should increase in similarity as the combination of doctrinal guidance and Army-wide milWiki collaboration facilitates consensus.
