demands efficiencies within DoD Efforts and input will inform the GEF review

Discussion

How do we prioritize / rationalize / link offers and requests for support?• Planning, training and exercising.

How are we compelling other Departments / Agencies to participate?• And using them properly when they do?

What training and exercise goals can translate into other Department / Agency desired deliverables?• Sharing outcomes, conclusions and final drafts?

Actual Department / Agency representation vs. contracted SMEs?• How do we ensure SME input is valid and accurate?

POLICY

Interagency Planning Portfolio

Current Situation• Multiple interagency planning activities underway• Discrete / Stove-piped

Conducted in isolation, potentially duplicative• Missed opportunities – “whole of government”/ interdepartmental

Challenges• Differences in types of planning, terminology, culture• Capacity limitations (personnel, expertise, funding)• Overwhelmed/fatigued by volume of DoD requests/offers

Way ahead• Goal: improve the process / improve the plans• Catalogue current activity• Clarify requirements (supported / supporting)• Inform GEF re-write

10

POLICY

Assessments Portfolio

Current Situation• GEF directs assessment of campaign plans (CP) and campaign

support plans (CSP) • CP and CSP assessments intended to inform planning,

programming, budget, and execution system (PPBES) No specification of how this is to be achieved or standard

Challenges• Assessing effectiveness and establishing causation in CP

environment difficult• PPBES processes operate on independent timelines• Limited staff and tools to conduct assessments

Way Ahead• Provide greater specificity of assessment guidance in GEF and JSCP• Evaluate implementation of guidance to establish best practices and

refine methodology

11

POLICY

Strategic Communication Portfolio

Current Situation• GEF directs integration of strategic communication throughout the

planning process• GEF directs that strategic communication be leveraged in support of

global force posture initiatives

Challenges• Lack of SC planning experience and capacity within DoD hinders

effective planning, coordination, and oversight• No defined process for SC planning at strategic level with interagency

partners• SC/IO concepts, lexicon, and planning standards not well defined

and/or understood

Way Ahead• Consult with COCOMs/Services to assess demand signal for

guidance/guidelines on SC• Support re-write of the GEF
