1. MPAT TEMPEST EXPRESS 26 (TE-26)
Workshop Overview
Good Day. My name is Phil N. DeBlanc and I will be giving a brief overview on the MPAT program and TE-26.
02-10 April 2015

2. Agenda What is MPAT? TE-26 Overview TE-26 Deliverables
Multinational Force Standing Operating Procedures (MNF SOP)
This is the agenda for today’s brief.
Explain the Multinational Planning Augmentation Team (MPAT) program.
Provide an overview of Tempest Express 26 (TE-26)
Explain the deliverables for each working group in TE-26
Explain the Multinational Force Standing Operating Procedures (MNF SOP) to be used in TE-26.

3. MPAT Participants A cadre of military planners ...
From nations with Asia-Pacific interests
Capable of rapidly augmenting a multinational force (MNF) headquarters (HQ)
Established to plan and execute coalition operations at the OPERATIONAL LEVEL
In response to military –operations-other-than-war (MOOTW) / small scale contingencies (SSC)
The climate of cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region is very conducive to multilateral dialogue and the development of effective strategic, operational, and tactical planning and execution skills to meet on-going and emergent security challenges.
Many of the necessary planning skills and personal relationships used to form effective multilateral partnerships can be found within the Multinational Planning Augmentation Team (MPAT) program.
The MPAT is made up of a cadre of experienced military planners, capable of rapidly augmenting a multinational force headquarters (MNF HQ), to plan and execute coalition military operations primarily at the lower end of the spectrum of conflict.
The primary focus of MPAT is to improve multinational interoperability at the operational level of command.

4. A Multinational Program
Maintains a cadre of MNF planners:
Skilled in common crisis action planning procedures
Available to rapidly augment a CTF HQ during a crisis
Develops habitual relationships among MPAT cadre
Meets periodically to:
Share information & develop CTF HQ procedures (MNF SOP)
Practice CTF HQ activation, formation, & planning processes
Includes interested nations, International Organizations (IOs), Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs), & United Nations (UN) agencies
MPAT PROGRAM BELONGS TO
ALL INTERESTED NATIONS
MPAT is a rapidly maturing multinational program established in early MPAT was established to develop procedures to facilitate the rapid and effective establishment and/or augmentation of multinational coalition task force headquarters (CTF HQ).
MPAT is not a program with formal participatory agreements. The key factor in program success to date has been the informal ad hoc nature of the program. Without memorandums of agreement, terms of reference, or other more formal arrangements, the program has been able to share information and all participants have been able to jointly develop concepts and procedures without formal policy constraints – a key inhibitor to multinational interoperability when working with other nations.
The MPAT program includes military planners from all interested nations and also incorporates expertise from International & Non-governmental Organizations and the UN. The MPAT program belongs to all interested nations.

5. MPAT Objectives & Methods
Improve Speed of Multinational Crisis Response
Improve Multinational Force Interoperability
Increase CTF Mission Effectiveness
Unity of Effort
Develop and become familiar with common Standing Operating Procedures (SOP) for MNF HQ and similar documents
Strengthen & Practice Common Crisis Action Planning Procedures
The operational objectives of the MPAT program are:
Increase speed of initial crisis response by a multinational force in the Asia-Pacific region.
Improve the interoperability of coalition or combined forces, or multinational operations where nations work in parallel with each other.
Improve overall Multinational Task Force Headquarters mission effectiveness.
The two primary methods by which MPAT supports these objectives are by:
Developing a cadre a skilled multinational military planners
Developing a common set of procedures
This program will ultimately save lives as we improve the multinational capability to rapidly and efficiently respond to a disaster, humanitarian crisis, or complex contingency.

6. MPAT Nations and Partners
Australia Bangladesh Brunei
Cambodia Canada East Timor
France Fiji Germany
India Indonesia Italy
Japan Korea Malaysia
Maldives Mongolia Nepal
New Zealand Papua New Guinea Philippines
Singapore Solomon Islands Sri Lanka

TE-26 guest participating nation: Norway
Expert mentors:
CFE DMHA, CRF, ICRC, MCDC, MIC, SPC, UN OCHA,
This is a list of current nations participating in the MPAT Program.
Most are from the Asia & Pacific regions.
The nations outside the region (Canada, France, Germany, Italy & the UK) participate in MPAT because they are also members (along with Australia & the US) in a multinational interoperability program called the Multinational Interoperability Council (MIC) which seeks to improve military interoperability at the strategic & policy level.
By including MIC nations in MPAT, we help to ensure that interoperability at the strategic/policy level is being done in concert with interoperability efforts at the operational/planner level, and vice versa.
MPAT program also invites leading civilian and humanitarian agencies to participate in MPAT events

Multinational Force Standing Operating Procedures (MNF SOP)
Overview of MNF SOP.

31. MNF SOP Overview
Agreed-upon procedures required to improve multinational crisis response and capabilities by MPAT nations
Not prescriptive, binding or directive
Document left “unsigned” intentionally
Serves as a “guide” (start point)
A multinational document
Contributions from 31 nations, UN, civil government and humanitarian organizations
Primary focus: Military Operations Other Than War (MOOTW)
Designed to support a full range of small scale contingencies (SSCs)
Used for all USPACOM Multinational Operations
Used for Joint Task Force Certification in ADF
Use for planning guide at TE 26
The MNF SOP supports the MPAT program and is its (MPAT) central planning and execution document.
The SOP’s focus is on improving “multinational crisis response capabilities within the 31 MPAT nations.
To date, we have had 16 dedicated MNF SOP Workshop to date. The next MNF SOP Workshop is scheduled in Sri Lanka in June 2013.

32. The Foundation for Unity of Effort
MNF SOP Key Principles
Operational Start Points
Predetermined “start points” prior to a crisis will improve MNF speed of initial response / effectiveness
Clear Understanding & Communications
It is critical to “agree” or “agree to disagree” based upon a common set of terms & processes
Common Planning Process
MNF planning structure must provide for an “integrated and managed process” for the development & execution of plans
The Foundation for Unity of Effort
Shown here are the MNF SOP key principles.
They are three fold as outlined.
I’ll give you a moment to read them.
(NOTE: describe each as required – are CRITICAL for the MNF SOP)
