3 MDMP-M 3

4 What is Plan/Order Development? A Concept of Operations (CONOPS) is developed by the staff and is the eventual centerpiece of the plan A plan (with or without an order [OPORD]) is developed based upon the approved Course of Action (COA) There are four types of plans based on the level of detail required and the time available to plan Plans may be promulgated by an Operation Order (OPORD) Plans/orders are based on the approved COA 4

5 Plan/Order Development Starting Conditions Commander has submitted Commander s Estimate that includes recommended COA Ending Conditions MNF plan and order, if required, are forwarded to the Higher Headquarters (HHQ) Approved MNF plan is issued by an OPORD (if required) to subordinate components to coordinate execution of an operation 5

6 Steps in Plan/Order Development 1. Develop Concept of Operations (CONOPS) 2. Develop one of the following types of plans Commander s Estimate (completed in MDMP-M Step 5) Basic Plan (BPLAN) Concept Plan (CONPLAN - Operational Plan (OPLAN) in abbreviated format) Operational Plan (OPLAN - complete and detailed plan) 3. Develop an Operations Order (OPORD), if required 4. Conduct Rehearsal of Concept (ROC) drills 5. Forward to HHQ for approval 6

7 Step 1: Develop CONOPS Concisely expresses the Commander s intent and how it will be done MNF component/supporting organization actions Friendly and threat centers of gravity (COGs)/vulnerabilities Operational Tempo (OPTEMPO) Links military objectives, lines of operation, decision points and supporting effects Must include level of detail to ensure MNF component commanders understand mission, tasks and other requirements Becomes centerpiece of the plan 7

8 Step 2: Plan/Order Development The plan/order will include force flow and task arrangement details Supporting annexes are developed in parallel Plan arrangement: Situation Mission Execution Administrative and logistics Command and signal MNF SOP Part C, Chapter 5, Annex B, Appendix 6 & 6A 8

9 Step 2: Develop Plan Develop the Plan - type of plan to develop depends on the level of detail required and the time available Commander s Estimate (the most basic plan) can be a COA briefing, command directive, commander s estimate or a memorandum Other plans (BPLAN, CONPLAN, OPLAN) will be formatted into an Operations Order (OPORD) with varying degrees of detail 9

10 Step 3: OPORD Development OPORD Annexes (per MNF SOP, Part F, Chapter 3, Annex F) A Task Organization B Intelligence C Operations D Logistics E Personnel F Public Affairs G Civil Military Operations H Meteorological and Oceanographic Operations J Command Relationships K Communications Systems L Environmental Considerations (Source: Joint Publication 5-0, Joint Operation Planning, 11 August 2011) 11

11 Step 3: OPORD Development Annexes M through Z: M Geospatial Information and Services N Space Operations P Host-Nation Support Q Medical Services R Reports S Special Technical Operations T Consequence Management U Notional Counterproliferation Decision Guide V Interagency Coordination W Contingency Contracting X Execution Checklist Y Strategic Communication Z Distribution 12

12 Step 4: ROC Drill Review and gaming of the plan and OPORD by Force Commander, component commanders and staff Used to exercise and refine the plan or order Planning conducted as lessons are learned Uses the CONOPS as the basis for review Links the strategic objectives, military objective, and end state conditions with the tactical tasks Promotes unity of effort and shared understanding Synchronization Understanding of risks, effects, etc. Ends, ways & means are all linked 13

13 Step 5: Forwarding of Plans/Orders Force Commander forwards completed OPLAN/OPORD to HHQ for review/approval MNF staff must be ready to answer concerns Pre-submission review should familiarize staff and Commander with potential issues Review will consider the following criteria: Adequacy, feasibility, acceptability, completeness, and compliance with multinational strategic guidance CPG leads review; Force Commander approves 14

14 Steps in Plan/Order Development 1. Develop Concept of Operations CONOPS 2. Develop one of the following types of plans Commander s Estimate Basic Plan (BPLAN) Concept Plan (CONPLAN) Operational Plan (OPLAN) 3. Develop an Operations Order (OPORD) if required 4. Conduct Rehearsal of Concept (ROC) drills 5. Forward to HHQ for approval 15
