0:02nato planning process
0:04after this presentation
0:06you should be able to summarize the two
0:09operations planning categories nato uses
0:13explain the north atlantic council's
0:15role
0:16in the operational planning process
0:19explain the nato crisis management
0:21process mythology
0:24explain the joint operational planning
0:26groups build up and tasks
0:29explain the logistic operational
0:31planning group and its connection to the
0:34joint operational planning group
0:37and recall the nato force generation
0:40process in general
0:42many of you will recall the famous
0:44quotation plans are nothing planning is
0:47everything by us general and later
0:50president dwight d eisenhower
0:53for the record the actual quotation was
0:57in preparing for battle
0:59i have always found that plants are
1:01useless
1:03but planning is indispensable
1:06if we look at the difference between the
1:08meaning of plants and planning in an
1:11easy way
1:13we can say that plans are blueprints of
1:16desired goal achievements
1:19and
1:20specifies the necessary resource
1:22allocations
1:24tasks and other actions
1:27planning can be described as means to
1:30think or decide what to do and how to do
1:33it in advance
1:36in order to prepare for and conduct
1:38complex and multi-dimensional operations
1:42it is necessary to conduct operations
1:44planning
1:46to develop appropriately detailed
1:48operational plans
1:50which address
1:52all relevant factors for the efficient
1:55and successful conduct of an operation
1:59nato's operations planning sets out
2:02broadly the operations planning process
2:06to describe how the military supports
2:09the nato crisis management process
2:12it describes how the alliance initiates
2:16develops coordinates
2:18approves executes reviews revises
2:22and cancels
2:24operation plan
2:26to prepare for its role
2:28and mission
2:29the alliance has two main operations
2:33planning categories
2:35advanced planning
2:37and crisis response planning
2:41nato has two operations planning
2:44categories
2:46advanced planning
2:48designed to prepare the alliance to deal
2:51with identified possible security risks
2:54there are two types of advanced planning
2:57operations plans
3:00standing defense plan and contingency
3:03plans
3:05common for these two types of plans are
3:08that they are pre-made before any crisis
3:13crisis response planning
3:16developed in response to an actual or
3:19developing crisis
3:21crisis response planning calls for the
3:24development of an operation plan
3:27for each operation
3:29two operation plans are produced
3:33a strategic operation plan approved by
3:36the knack and an operational operation
3:39plan approved by secure
3:42an operation plan is a detailed and
3:45comprehensive plan capable of execution
3:48as soon as the forces
3:51are assigned in accordance with the
3:53combined joint statement of requirements
3:57and the concept of operations
4:02this slide contains the detailed
4:04definitions or descriptions of concept
4:07of operations
4:09and the different plans
4:11from the previously slide
4:31the north atlantic council often
4:34referred to as the council
4:37has the ultimate authority in nato and
4:40is the only body within the alliance
4:43which derives its authority explicitly
4:47from the north atlantic treaty
4:50decisions are made on consensus only
4:54the north atlantic council will decide
4:57for each relevant crisis
5:00if nato should act and if so
5:03in what manner
5:06while every crisis is unique the nato
5:09crisis management process
5:11is the process by which the alliance
5:14addresses and
5:16subject to decisions by the north
5:18atlantic council
5:20aims to manage and resolve a crisis
5:26clearly each circumstance
5:29will dictate the exact steps
5:32but the nato crisis management process
5:35provides a default template
5:37from which
5:39deviations may be made by
5:42informed decisions
5:45it is primarily designed to allow the
5:48relevant staffs and nato committees to
5:52coordinate their work and to submit
5:55comprehensive advice
5:57to the north atlantic council
6:00in a timely and compelling way
6:04strategic operational and tactical are
6:07the three levels utilized by nato to
6:11categorize echelons of command and
6:14operations activities
6:17the nato strategic commander for
6:19operations
6:20is supreme allied commander europe
6:24takeur
6:26the commander at the operational level
6:29is normally the joint force commander at
6:32one of nato's joint force headquarters
6:36the commanders of the nato command
6:39structure maritime land and air commands
6:43will provide single service command
6:47at the operational level
6:50a special operations component command
6:53or the
6:54specified component commands may also be
6:58established
7:00other flag officers from the nato force
7:03structure
7:04may be designated as the joint force
7:07commander for operations
7:10where graduated readiness forces
7:13headquarters is utilized
7:16commanders at the tactical level
7:19are the functional commanders
7:22the alliance will daily be monitoring
7:25and maintaining situational awareness
7:28across its area of interest
7:31the nato crisis management process
7:33is initiated once indications suggest
7:37that there is an emerging crisis that
7:39may affect nato's interests
7:43nato crisis management process
7:46consists of six
7:47successive faces that generally confirm
7:51with the cycle of crisis
7:54phase one
7:56indications
7:57and warning of the potential or actual
8:00crisis
8:01phase two
8:03assessment of the developing
8:05or reassessment of an ongoing crisis
8:09and of its potential or actual
8:11implications
8:13for alliance security
8:15phase 3
8:17development
8:18of recommended response options to
8:21support the north atlantic council
8:24decision making throughout the cycle of
8:27crisis
8:28phase four planning
8:31phase five execution of the north
8:34atlantic council decisions and
8:36directives
8:37and
8:39phase six
8:40transition and termination of nato's
8:43crisis management
8:47progression throughout each phase
8:49is not automatic and will be guided by
8:53the north atlantic council decision
8:55making
8:56the faces may overlap
8:59and they may be repeated depending on
9:03the changing circumstances during the
9:06life cycle of a crisis
9:09as depicted on the slide
9:13planning and operation throughout the
9:15nato crisis management process is called
9:18nato crisis response planning
9:20and conducted simultaneously
9:23at all four levels
9:25the north atlantic council and military
9:29committee
9:30shape
9:32joint headquarters
9:34and
9:34component headquarters
9:37in the nato crisis response planning
9:40planning at military strategic level and
9:42operational level is called the
9:45operational planning process
9:47the purpose of the operational planning
9:49process
9:51is to prepare the alliance to meet
9:54any future possible crisis
9:57the operational planning process also
10:00provides for the timely and efficient
10:02development of operation plans in
10:06response to an actual or developing
10:09crisis
10:11throughout the planning process the
10:13operational planning process must
10:15continuously consider the expanding
10:18internal nato civil military interface
10:21available
10:23for use within the operations planning
10:26in line with nato policy and the
10:28planning principles military planners
10:31will integrate civil emergency planning
10:35experts
10:36as well as licensed personnel from
10:39relevant nato agencies
10:41and non-nato organizations
10:44when authorized into the appropriate
10:47steps
10:48of the operational planning process
10:52nato's civil emergency planning experts
10:55are responsible for providing advice and
10:59support to their military counterparts
11:03during all phases of the planning
11:06process
11:07the nato crisis management process
11:10at the political level and the
11:12operational planning process at a
11:13strategic level both requires adequate
11:16response from the operational level
11:20the flow of information direction orders
11:24other planning inputs advice assessment
11:27and reports
11:28is depicted
11:30in the figure
11:33on this slide we have tried to
11:34illustrate how the operational planning
11:37process is distributed around the six
11:40phases in the nato crisis management
11:42process
11:45the operational planning process is
11:48normally conducted by one of nato's two
11:51joint headquarters
11:54on the next slide we will focus on the
11:56engine in the operational planning
11:58process called the joint operational
12:01planning group
12:03the joint operational planning group
12:05will normally be activated in phase 2
12:08and be composed of representatives from
12:12all branches including augmented
12:15representatives and subject matter
12:18experts when needed each branch
12:22has at least one representative present
12:25in the joint operational planning group
12:28the different branches representatives
12:30will therefore be supported by own
12:32sub-planning groups
12:35from the logistic bronze perspective it
12:37is recommended if possible to have one
12:40general logistic
12:42representative supported by one movement
12:46and one medic expert
12:48all present in the joint operational
12:51planning group
12:53the logistics sub planning group is
12:55called logistic operational planning
12:57group and consists of logistic
13:00representatives from all logistic
13:03functional areas
13:05supply material life cycle support
13:09equipment and maintenance
13:11movement and transportation
13:13services
13:15medical
13:16the logistic operational planning group
13:18task is to provide input to the logistic
13:22representatives in the joint operational
13:24planning group
13:26military logistics has several
13:28principles foresight economy simplicity
13:31cooperation and flexibility which are
13:34enshrined in nato and national doctrine
13:39in order to support the planning staff
13:41the logistic considerations must be
13:44considered
13:45at each stage of the opp
13:50the logistical estimate process uses the
13:53four d's
13:55demand distance duration
13:58and destination
14:01demand
14:03identifies
14:05the forecasted quantity
14:07and pattern of consumption or usage of
14:11material and services
14:14demand will be driven by the following
14:16factors
14:18as
14:19for example nature
14:21and size of the force
14:23and tempo and intensity of operations
14:26distance
14:28the expected duration of the operation
14:30will impact the logistic plan
14:33the duration of the logistic plan should
14:36be coherent with operation plan
14:38chronology
14:39shorter operations will be able to make
14:43maximum use of temporary and deployable
14:46infrastructure
14:48and rely on small stock holdings
14:52duration
14:54the expected duration of the operation
14:56will impact the logistic plan also
14:58the duration of the logistic plan should
15:01be coherent with the operation plan
15:04chronology
15:06destination
15:07to understand the impact of the
15:09destination on the logistic operation
15:11this can be for example
15:13available logistic nodes
15:16host nation support
15:18capabilities and capacity and climate
15:22and terrain
15:23shorter operations will be able to make
15:26maximum use of temporary and deployable
15:29infrastructure and rely on small stock
15:32holdings

15:40the force generation
15:42force generation process is the
15:44procedure by which allies
15:47and partner countries
15:49resource the personnel and equipment
15:51needed to carry out north atlantic
15:54council approved operations and missions
15:58nato relies on the military forces of
16:01its member countries to carry out
16:04an operation or mission because it does
16:08not possess military forces of its own
16:12personnel serving in a nato operation
16:14are referred to as nato forces but are
16:17multinational forces from nato countries
16:20and in some cases
16:22partner or other troop contributing
16:25countries
16:27national capitals take the final
16:29decision on whether to contribute to a
16:32nato-led operation or mission deputy
16:36supreme allied commander europe
16:39can only ask
16:41the nato member countries
16:43and partner countries for military
16:46forces not task
16:48the nato fourth generation process is
16:51synchronized
16:53and conducted together with the nato
16:55operational planning process
16:58phase two
16:59to four
17:01we have in this presentation introduced
17:03you to the nato operational planning
17:06process
17:07the nato crisis management mythology
17:10with its six phases
17:13two planning categories advanced and
17:16crisis response planning operational
17:18planning process
17:20is the planning on military strategic
17:22and operational level
17:24joint operational planning group is
17:27responsible
17:28for the operational planning process
17:32logistic operational planning group
17:34supports the joint operational planning
17:37group when needed nato force generation
17:40process
17:41is synchronized and conducted together
17:43with the operational planning process
17:46he take away the nato planning process
17:48encourage concurrency of planning
17:51efforts
17:52at all level and is commander driven
17:56progression throughout each phase in
17:58nato crisis management process is not
