1. Purpose. Per references (a) and (b), this execution order (EXORD)
directs Navy Reserve Region Readiness and Mobilization Commands
(REDCOMs) to include Everett, Fort Worth, Great Lakes, Jacksonville,
Norfolk, and San Diego to plan, execute, and assess MOBEX 25-3. The
Supported Commander, with assistance from Mobilization and
Deployment
Support Command (MDSC), will participate as required in conducting
spotchecks on select mobilization packages to validate Navy
Mobilization Processing Site (NMPS) screening. MOBEX 25-3 commences
01 February 2025 and ends 11 April 2025. Aforementioned commands
are specifically directed to:
a. Validate ZipServe PAYPERS repository compliance for
pre-selected 10% minimum of SELRES from their region to participate.
Evaluate workflow, process owner performance, and measure between
milestone activities to identify areas for process improvement.
(1) The ZipServe module will be utilized for SELRES
submission of PAYPERS packet documents per reference (c), and
respective Navy
Reserve Activity (NRA) and Navy Mobilization Processing Site (NMPS)
clerks will verify accuracy and completeness per reference (d).
All SELRES participants, NRAs, NMPSs will utilize the following
supplemental guidance links:
(a) ZipServe link (CAC, or password access required):
https://locker.private.navyreserve.navy.mil/zipserve/home

utilized as repository for the NAVPERS 1300/22 Expeditionary
Screening checklist.
(1) NRAs will generate, fill-out and upload a completed
NAVPERS 1300/22 Expeditionary Screening Checklist for SELRES

2. Background.
 a. In September 2021, a new construct for mobilization named
Adaptive Mobilization (AM) was conceptually approved by the Chief
of Naval Personnel (CNP) and the Chief of Navy Reserve (CNR). AM
was designed to satisfy both steady-state and mass activation
requirements and encompasses all processes of distributed
activation (DA), distributed mobilization (DM), distributed
de-mobilization (DDM) and distributed de-activation (DDA). The
AM construct was codified via reference (a).
 b. In September 2024, the First Day Letter Memorandum from
the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) to Chief of Navy Reserve and
Commander, Navy Reserve Force, outlined four key priorities:
(1) Warfighting Readiness, (2) Recruiting and Retention,
(3) Mobilization, and (4) Quality of Service. Under the third
priority of "mobilization," CNO recognized the Navy Reserve's
progress toward building a scalable, repeatable framework for
mobilizing 50,000 Sailors in 30 days has been transformational.
Codified via reference (e) in the CNO's First Day Letter Memorandum,
CNO directed the capability to mobilize 50,000 Sailors in 30 days to
be firmly established by 2027.
 c. Identifying barriers needing to be removed or resources
needing to be applied in order to meet this requirement are crucial,
as well as incorporating frequent rehearsals to hone the skills
necessary to ensure success. CNRF regularly conducts MOBEXs to test
the Navy's ability to mass-activate RC Sailors and units.
These stress tests have solidified lessons learned, leading to
significant process improvements over the last three years.
 d. In FY-25, CNRF directed the planning and execution of five
MOBEXs to develop, test, and evaluate AM processes per references
(a) and (b). The force must continue to execute and leverage
readiness improvement initiatives incorporated in references (f),
(g) and (h).
 e. FY-25 MOBEXs are designed to evaluate the progress of driving
readiness across the force as well as develop and improve AM
processes. MOBEX 25-3 is the third exercise in the series for FY-25.
3. Commander's Intent.
 a. CNRF executes AM to mobilize designated personnel for both
(1) mass activation in support of strategic competition as well as
(2) steady-state and emergent ad hoc augmentation.
 b. Exercises evaluate and improve mobilization processes and
readiness for strategic competition. MOBEX 25-3 will utilize
processes from references (i) and (j) for assessing the NRAs
ability to properly screen and utilize ZipServe in NMPS validation
processing.
 c. Participation is directed by CNRF and mandatory for all
commands listed in para 1 of this EXORD.
4. Execute.
 a. ECH II/III: CNRF N1/CNRF N3.
 (1) Participate in MOBEX 25-3 as directed in para 1.

 (3) After Action Reports (AARs).
 (a) ECH II/III commands will submit informal MOBEX 25-3
AARs to identify top three items that went well ("good") and top
three areas for improvement ("others"). Feedback post MOBEX 25-3 is

AARs are due to CNRF N36 by 14 April 2025 and may be submitted via
email to the CNRF N363 Mobilization Exercises Branch Head as listed
in para 7.
