This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Commander's Guide to Integrated Financial Operations (IFO) has two major aspects: 1) funding of economic development projects to win the support of a local population and to separate them from the insurgency; and, 2) contributing to destroying the insurgents' financial networks. More than fiscal policy, financial assistance, and accounting oversight, IFO seeks to refine processes and procedures to synchronize efforts among the United States Government (USG) agencies, multinational forces, intergovernmental organizations (IGOs), and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). The continuing military problem that this commander's guide seeks to mitigate is the JFC's inability to integrate, synchronize, prioritize, and target the application of financial resources with the complementary efforts of USG agencies, multinational forces, IGOs, and NGOs to separate populations from insurgents and destroy or disrupt insurgent financial networks. As a means of mitigating the adverse effects of the identified shortfalls, it introduces changes needed to plan and execute IFO. To this end, the guide describes a process and organizational solution that could provide the JFC with the ability to use financial operations as an integral part of attaining joint operation/campaign objectives. This handbook project originated in response to a request from US Forces Afghanistan (USFOR-A) to USJFCOM requesting assistance to develop an IFO concept. Initial attempts to employ the principles of IFO have been challenging. The continuing military problem, that this handbook seeks to mitigate, is the joint force commander's (JFC's) inability to integrate, synchronize, prioritize, and target the application of fiscal resources with the related efforts of interagency and multinational partners, IGOs, and NGOs in order to separate populations from insurgents and destroy or disrupt insurgent financial networks. Handbooks currently in use primarily provide tactical direction to deploying forces rather than operational or strategic analysis and solutions. Further, none of these adequately address counter threat finance (CTF) activities designed to deny, disrupt, destroy, or defeat financial systems and networks that negatively affect US interests. Effective employment of IFO requires unified action, i.e., the synchronization, coordination, and/or integration of the activities of governmental and nongovernmental entities with military operations to achieve unity of effort. The need for an integrated effort in Afghanistan was recognized after several years of ad hoc activities prompted by the US Civilian-Military Campaign Plan. The US Civilian-Military Campaign Plan calls for better integration of reconstruction projects, not only between US agencies but also with the international donor community. In current and future areas of operation, multiple USG and other organizations will be involved in similar activities. For example, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is the primary USG provider of humanitarian and economic assistance, a mission that mandates coordination between USAID and military commands responsible for operating in the same area. Therefore, this handbook acknowledges the roles, resources, implications, and authorities of the multiple agencies and organizations are beyond the control of JFCs. The handbook contains brief descriptions of the organizations most likely to be involved in development activities and provides some "best practices" to the JFC for effectively dealing with them. The handbook offers useful techniques, processes, and procedures that can be used in the combatant commands by JFCs and their staffs. It discusses the requirements of IFO and existing capabilities that can meet those requirements. The handbook provides the needed joint context and extrapolates the lessons derived in one operational area (Afghanistan) for global application.

This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated financial operations are the integration, synchronization, prioritization, and targeting of fiscal resources and capabilities along with the related efforts of interagency and multinational partners and nongovernmental organizations against an enemy, and in support of the population, combined with minimizing the possibility that such resources/capabilities will be diverted or inadvertently misused to support an enemy's financial networks. Further, integrated financial operations encompasses more than simple fiscal policy and oversight-they entail using finances to support operational objectives. Accordingly, the joint force commander requires the ability to manage limited financial resources within the Department of Defense and coordinate with other US Government and host nation agencies, multinational forces, intergovernmental organizations, and nongovernmental organizations to fully utilize financial resources in the accomplishment of operational objectives.

Download or read book Commander s Handbook for Assessment Planning and Execution written by J-7 Joint and Coalition Warfighting Joint Staff, J-7 Joint and Coalition Warfighting and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2014-07-13 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Joint Staff J-7 continues to interact with the combatant commands and Services, we recognize that there is very little "how to" doctrinal guidance on planning and executing assessments. Consequently, we have developed this pre-doctrinal handbook to help joint force commanders and their staffs understand the scope and importance of assessment and provide information and guidance on its process; best practices; planning, and execution. This handbook was written to provide needed detail to military planners and is based on extensive lessons learned and best practices gained throughout the joint environment. Assessment is a key component of joint operation planning as described in keystone documents in the joint publication series, and outlines the basic process for conducting assessment. However, these joint publications contain considerable top-level discussion of assessment and lack the level of detail needed by staffs tasked to conduct assessment. This handbook describes detailed procedures that can be used to measure progress in achieving desired results. This handbook is descriptive, not prescriptive. It is offered as a practical method for assessing the planning and execution of joint operations. Joint force commander's around the world routinely conduct assessment as a part of their day-to-day battle rhythms, and numerous headquarters have used the procedures described in this handbook during exercises and operations. We hope this handbook stimulates the joint community's thinking about how to address assessments. We encourage you to use the information in this handbook and provide feedback to help us capture value-added ideas for incorporation in emerging joint doctrine, training, and professional military education.

Download or read book Commanding an Air Force Squadron written by Col Usaf Timmons, Timothy and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The privilege of commanding an Air Force squadron, despite its heavy responsibilities and unrelenting challenges, represents for many Air Force officers the high point of their careers. It is service as a squadron commander that accords true command authority for the first time. The authority, used consistently and wisely, provides a foundation for command. As with the officer's commission itself, command authority is granted to those who have earned it, both by performance and a revealed capacity for the demands of total responsibility. But once granted, it much be revalidated every day. So as one assumes squadron command, bringing years of experience and proven record to join with this new authority, one might still need a little practical help to success with the tasks of command. This book offers such help. “Commanding an Air Force Squadron” brings unique and welcome material to a subject other books have addressed. It is rich in practical, useful, down-to-earth advice from officers who have recently experienced squadron command. The author does not quote regulations, parrot doctrine, or paraphrase the abstractions that lace the pages of so many books about leadership. Nor does he puff throughout the manuscript about how he did it. Rather, he presents a digest of practical wisdom based on real-world experience drawn from the reflection of many former commanders from any different types of units. He addresses all Air Force squadron commanders, rated and nonrated, in all sorts of missions worldwide. Please also see a follow up to this book entitled “Commanding an Air Force Squadron in the Twenty-First Century (2003)” by Jeffry F. Smith, Lieutenant Colonel, USAF.

This book was released on 2019-03-24 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policymakers and program managers are continually seeking ways to improve accountability in achieving an entity's mission. A key factor in improving accountability in achieving an entity's mission is to implement an effective internal control system. An effective internal control system helps an entity adapt to shifting environments, evolving demands, changing risks, and new priorities. As programs change and entities strive to improve operational processes and implement new technology, management continually evaluates its internal control system so that it is effective and updated when necessary. Section 3512 (c) and (d) of Title 31 of the United States Code (commonly known as the Federal Managers? Financial Integrity Act (FMFIA)) requires the Comptroller General to issue standards for internal control in the federal government.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Capstone Concept for Joint Operations describes in broad terms my vision for how the joint force circa 2016-2028 will operate in response to a wide variety of security challenges. It proposes that future joint force commanders will combine and subsequently adapt some combination of four basic categories of military activity -- combat, security, engagement, and relief and reconstruction -- in accordance with the unique requirements of each operational situation. The concept is informed by current strategic guidance, but because it looks to the future, it is intended to be adaptable, as it must be, to changes in that guidance.
