MOBILIZATION (AM) MANNING OPERATIONAL PLANNING TEAM (OPT)

RMKS/1. SITUATION. Over the last two years of implementing adaptive
mobilization (AM) to fulfill steady state activation requirements,
Commander, Navy Reserve Force (CNRF) has identified barriers to the
execution of the mass activation capabilities of AM. A major barrier
to the success of AM is manning wholeness.
2. BACKGROUND.
 2.A In October and November of 2023 an operational planning
team (OPT) was stood up to perform mission analysis, course of
action (COA) development, and COA analysis/comparison via a table
top exercise (TTX). During that TTX a number of barriers to success
were identified including manning wholeness in support of AM.
 2.B Over the past two years significant efforts to distribute
mobilization processing have been underway. The most notable result
of these efforts is the Navy's expansion from a single Navy
Mobilization Processing site (NMPS)to now 16 NMPSs distributed
across the continental United States. The establishment of multiple
NMPSs has resulted in increased mobilization processing throughput
capacity and provided redundancy to the Navy's ability to mobilize
Sailors for Individual Augmentee (IA) steady-state requirements.
 2.C The expansion from a single NMPS to 16 NMPSs brings with it a
need to evaluate manning associated with echelon-respective AM
processes. The actions prescribed in this PLANORD will ensure
alignment in planning and fulfillment of these manning needs
utilizing the processes outlined in reference (a) and reference (b)
to:
 2.C.i. Ensure a common understanding of the situation regarding
manning needs and requirements for headquarters, supporting
commanders, adaptive mobilization readiness teams (AMRTs) and
mobilization processing teams (MPTs).
 2.C.ii. Historical analysis of NMPS throughput.
 2.C.iii. Determination of manpower requirements to perform
steady-state mobilization and demobilization processing.
 2.C.iv. Review of steady state manpower requirements to ensure
support of a scalable mobilization process i.e. ability to execute
mass-activation.
3. SCHEDULE.
 3.A. FY-24 AM Manning Mission Analysis and Course of Action
Development.
 3.A.i. CNRF will coordinate and stand up an OPT in order to
execute analysis and COA development and analysis/comparison phases
of the Navy planning process ISO manning of adaptive mobilization
readiness teams and mobilization processing teams on or
about 5-6 March 2024. This OPT will be held in-person in Norfolk, VA
at the Joint Expeditionary Base - Little Creek library and will
include up to two members from each Echelon II/III/IV stakeholders.
 3.A.ii. The OPT will utilize processes of reference (a) and
reference (b) to validate and update all manning analyses performed
and to develop courses of action to identify barriers to appropriate
manning fulfillment and application.
4. TASKS
 4.A. CNRF will plan, coordinate, and execute, the event described
in paragraph 3. Attendance will be coordinated with attending
stakeholders via separate correspondence.
 4.B. Supporting commanders designated representative will
participate in these events, in-person, and participate as subject
matter experts (SMEs). These SMEs should be associated with
manpower (N1) and AM processing (N3/N5). Enlisted SME attendance is
highly encouraged.
 4.C. For these events, objectives include the following tasks:
 4.C.i. Review previous AM manning plans including mission and
intent, purpose, externally imposed limitations, and facts and
assumptions.
 4.C.ii. Validate/update previous facts and assumptions, staff
estimates, risk assessments, and decision tools.
 4.C.iii. Identify resource shortfalls.
 4.C.iv. Ensure that if resourced properly for steady-state
activations, these processes are scalable at determined staff levels
to support mass-activation.
5. ADMINISTRATION AND LOGISTICS. This directive does not appropriate
funds. Conduct events on a not-to-interfere basis with real-world
operations and mobilizations.
