This is the agenda for today’s brief:
This brief will explain the Multinational Planning Augmentation Team Program
The reasons for the program will be explained
The Multinational Force Standing Operating Procedures (MNF SOP) is a an important part of the MPAT program
The Various Components of the Automated Coalition Consequence Management (ACCM) ATD FY07 Proposal

3. MPAT 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
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
Multinational venue to share MNF CTF HQ procedures
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.

6. Objectives & Methods Improve Speed of Multinational Crisis Response
Improve Multinational Force Interoperability
Increase CTF Mission Effectiveness
Unity of Effort
Strengthen & Practice Common Crisis Action Planning Procedures
Develop and become familiar with common Standing Operating Procedures (SOP) for MNF CTF HQ
The operational objectives of the MPAT program are:
Increase speed of initial crisis response by a CTF in the Asia-Pacific region.
Improve the interoperability of coalition or combined forces
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.

Recognizing that the establishment of procedures for a MNF CTF HQ was not sufficient, MPAT identified a requirement to be able to develop a cadre of operational planners from multinational partners with interests in the Asia-Pacific region. [click]
This requirement, already institutionalized in PACOM for joint operations support to a JTF under the Deployable Joint Task Force Augmentation Cell (DJTFAC) concept, was developed for CTF HQ augmentation. [click]
For a U.S.-led operation, the core of the actual Multinational Planning Augmentation Team consists of select U.S. military planners from the PACOM staff, service components and Special Operations Command Pacific (SOCPAC) headquarters. Multinational planners are incorporated to provide a multinational planning capability. [click]
For a non-U.S.-led operation, multinational planners from contributing nations would augment the operational headquarters planning staff identified by the lead-nation to plan & coordinate the crisis response. [click]

8. HQ Procedures for Multinational Force OPS
MNF SOP Purpose
Increase multinational force (MNF):
Speed of Initial Response
Interoperability
Overall Mission Effectiveness
Unity of Effort
HQ Procedures for Multinational Force OPS
One of the first actions in the MPAT initiative was the development of procedures for the operation of a CTF HQ.
The MNF SOP recognizes the existence of shared national interests in the region and seeks to standardize some basic concepts and processes that will promote habits of cooperation, increased dialogue, and provide for baseline coalition task force (CTF) operational concepts.
Further, this SOP serves as a centerpiece for the MPAT workshops and exercises aimed at improving interoperability and CTF operational readiness within the Asia-Pacific region.
The purpose of the SOP is straight forward:
Increase the speed of a MNF initial response,
Improve interoperability among the participating forces,
enhance overall mission effectiveness
And support Unity of Effort

9. Operating Concept Unified Action Humanitarian Community Civil Military
Governmental
How Do We Coordinate, Cooperate, Synchronize Efforts?
….in a CBRN-TIM Threat Environment?

10. MNF SOP CBRN-TIM & CM
Addressing capability gaps via Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs):
CBRN-TIM Special Staff Procedures
CBRN-TIM Defense Procedures (Multinational force protection perspective)
CM Procedures (for CM branch, sequel & dedicated CM mission)
Medical Procedures (CBRN-TIM Appendix)
Special Staff Procedures:
Outlines the CBRN-TIM Defense Special Staff concept within the CTF Headquarters which has been established for defensive CBRN-TIM Multinational Operations
The CBRN-TIM Defense Special Staff will assist the CCTF and CTF staff to address CBRN-TIM (Weapons of Mass Destruction – WMD) Consequence Management, and Epidemics operational-level (planning and execution) challenges
This Special Staff organization is designed to be flexible and scalable to meet varying threat and environmental conditions
CBRN-TIM Defense Procedures:
Guidance focused upon the force protection actions and changes in the character of operations that CBRN-TIM may impose on CTF forces and multinational organizations
The impact of even minor CBRN-TIM events could have overwhelming negative impacts on CTF mission execution and participating nation support of the CTF mission - potentially causing total mission failure
CM Procedures:
Guidance for mitigating the effects on the population from the release of CBRN-TIM
Accidents and Disasters are handled at the Department of State / Foreign Affairs Ministry level
Due to specialized training and equipment, military forces may be called upon to augment civil authorities, but will not lead the effort
Medical Procedures:
Will include a section for guidance on mitigating Medical risks during a CBRN-TIM event

12. Identified Problems in Multinational Operations
The US lacks an early, effective, joint and multinational CBRN-related indication, warning, modeling & decision support capability.
Required coordination across a disparate and geographically distant set of partners complicates multinational procedures and cooperation.
International community and the US have many coalition-centric CBRN capability gaps and shortfalls relevant to
Risk Assessment
Decision Analysis Capabilities
Common Operating Picture of the Environment
Integrated Early Warning
Modeling & Simulation
Bullet 1:
This lack could significantly delay or halt the flow of forces responding to a CBRN-related crisis, within the USPACOM Area of Responsibility (AOR), bring a halt to ongoing military operations, and cause significant military and civilian casualties.
US commanders at all levels recognize that collaborating with partner nations is a necessary part of the current and future military landscape.
Bullet 2:
MPAT is working on improvements in multinational command and control procedures to facilitate efficient, timely and coordinated responses to protect against or combat the use of CBRN and Toxic Industrial Material (TIM) threats.
Bullet 3:
MPAT collaboration events and USPACOM multinational exercises clearly emphasize this (Lessons Learned, AARs). This ATD Proposal is based on US requirements for CBRN defense in Multinational Operations.
Integrating our capabilities with those of partner nations’, particularly for hazardous missions such as Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Defense and Consequence Management (CM), is part of the critical path to success for both Multinational Forces (MNF) and US forces.
These capability gaps are outlined and prioritized in the 2006 Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear Defense (CBRND) Joint Priority List (JPL), which was constructed through COCOM and Service inputs, vetted through the Combating WMD Working Group (CbtWMD WG) and the Force Protection Functional Capabilities Board (FP FCB) and signed by Dir, JRO-CBRND on 25Apr06.

13. While looking for Government Off the Shelf (GOTS) solutions, the MPAT team was on JOEF briefed by JPEO JPM-IS during the MPAT CBRN-TIM Defense Workshop in November 2005.
JOEF is a Modeling & Simulation Program that will enable Joint Warfighters and Planners to predict CBRN effects on personnel, equipment and operations and to recommend COAs to minimize or eliminate the CBRN threat.
The JOEF Increment I system is currently under acquisition and development for US forces.
Funding for JOEF increments II and III, which support Consequence Management and Coalition Operations respectively, has been pushed to the right.
Since the MPAT program is a US DoD program focused on delivering capabilities to coalition forces, a major emphasis of this ATD will be to develop JOEF capabilities that are releasable to partner nations for multinational use.

19. Automated Coalition Consequence Management Advanced Technology Demonstration (ACCM ATD) (FY07 ATD Candidate)
Problem:
Warfighters lack a multinational-capable, CBRN-focused indication, warning, modeling and decision support capability.
This gap is a source of significant operational risk for US forces that participate in coalition operations.
Without this capability, coalition force flow in response to CBRN-crises is delayed, staff work becomes the limiting factor for rapid coalition operations, and military and civilian casualties increase significantly.
Objectives:
Apply fielded tools, technologies and data to mitigate U.S. risk in coalition operations. Test the proposed solution through the MPAT program in USPACOM exercises executed in a multinational environment.
Technologies:
JOEF Increment I, II & III Software
CBRN Data
CBRN Defense Models and Decision Support Tools

20. The ACCM tool will be a configurable, collaborative procedural environment drawing on many different existing tool sets
Multinational AND Interagency Tools
Front End Analysis may show that our Multinational and Interagency Partners may have toolsets similar to the ACCM
JOEF
Within the ACCM environment, multinational users will develop processes that are specific to coalition operations (such as MPAT SOPs).
The system will include task-level models of military and other operations, as well as human effects models and medical resource estimation capabilities.
This ATD will supply a range of CBRN data that is relevant to CBRN Defense and CM procedures and operations.
Asia Pacific Area Network (APAN)
This ATD will supply a medium for interoperability, collaboration and connectivity in order to share and disseminate CBRN Defense and CM information.
Accredited, unclassified, secure non .mil network
Used by USPACOM & multinational partners (e.g., tsunami response, exercise planning, etc.)
Able to share with Interagencies (e.g., JTF HLD and State of Hawaii for domestic homeland defense & CM crisis response)
CBRN Defense Fusion Center (CBRN-DFC) – Sponsored by DTRA and Combating WMD
This ATD will supply a capability to synthesize and assess CBRN threat information and provide the early warning/situational awareness that is critical to effectively mitigating identified risks. Information will be fused sources such as:
Intelligence, Law Enforcement, Medical Surveillance data, Deployed CBRN Sensors
CBRN Defense Models and Decision Support Tools
This ATD will also supply models and decision support tools to meet the CTF users’ needs such as:
ChemRat, JWARN, JEM, JOEF’s CBRN health effects and medical resource modeling capabilities and other such tools discovered during the Front End Analysis of the ATD
