1	Support Planning
2	Lesson Objectives Comprehend the principles and activities of the support-planning step in JOPES. Comprehend the key concepts, terminology, and IT systems used during the support planning step in plan development. Describe the current related JOPES IT capabilities and limitations.
3	JOPES Functions and Joint Planning
4	Plan Development
5	Classes and Subclasses of Supply
6	Classes and Subclasses of Supply
7	Classes and Subclasses of Supply
8	Logistic Planning
9	Principles of Logistics
10	Logistics Responsibilities In U.S. unified commands: Logistics is a Service responsibility Combatant Commanders have “directive” authority In multinational commands: Logistics is a national responsibility commanders have “coordinating” authority
11	Combatant Commander’s Responsibilities for Supply Establishing supply buildup rates Stating theater stockage levels Allocating critical logistics resources Review statement of requirements Coordinating supply support Providing supplies to civilians Recommending the priority of the phase buildup and cutback JP 4-0
12	Combatant Commander’s Concept of Support Assumptions Mortuary Services Planning Factors Support of Media Support of Combat Ops HNS Contracting Distribution Salvage CE
13	Directive Authority for Logistics Combatant Commander Authority to issue directives to subordinate commanders Ability to shift logistic resources within the theater Effective execution of approved operation plans Effectiveness and economy of the operation Prevents or eliminates unnecessary facility duplication and overlapping functions. Promotes synchronization of effort and builds cohesion among the Service component commands in supporting the combatant commander.
14	Support Planning Combatant Commander’s concept of support Responsibilities Supply requirements Phasing OPLAN development
15	Support Planning Data Service/component responsibility References JSCP (supplemental instructions) Combatant Commander guidance (concept for logistics support) Service documents
16	Support Planning Three major categories: Materiel and personnel requirements Medical support requirements Civil engineering support requirements
17	Materiel Sustainability CONUS depot stocks Defense Supply Center Columbus Defense Supply Center Richmond Defense Supply Center Philadelphia Defense Energy Support Center Ft Belvoir Theater pre-positioning programs Host-nation support Industrial production base
18	Medical Analysis Tool Compute medical requirements Determine the amount of med support expected Blood / other fluids Hospital beds Aero-medical evac requirements
19	Civil Engineering Support Plan developed through JEPES Responsibility - supported commander Developed by - component commander on area basis Based on - Service planning data - construction requirements - unified commander’s guidance
20	Support Requirements
21	Support Planning Factors
22	Non-Unit Personnel Filler Brings unit up to authorized strength Replacement Keeps units 100% effective Based on Service attrition factors for various levels of intensity Transported to Joint Replacement Centers Must be time-phased
23	Current JOPES IT (TPFDD Development)
24	JFAST Sustainment Generator Interfaces with JOPES and other plan development programs. Rapidly generates non-unit sustainment. Reserves space for Support requirements Identifies substitutes to resolve shortfalls. Supports rapid determination of logistics feasibility.

26	JFAST - Origins View
27	Support Planning Summary Determine support requirements to sustain forces Components compute requirements Non-unit-related supplies and personnel Medical and civil engineering support Add requirements to TPFDD
