37. According to FM 5-0, the purpose of Mission Analysis is "to better understand the situation and problem, and identify what the command must accomplish, when and where it must be done, and most importantly why." JP 5-0 states that the primary purpose of Mission Analysis is "to understand the problem and purpose of the operation and issue appropriate guidance to drive the rest of the planning process." 38. JP 5-0 Mission Analysis Steps (15, really 14 if you take out "Develop Mission Analysis Brief") FM 5-0 Mission Analysis Steps (18) The most obvious difference in the two MA processes is that JOPP directs the identification of friendly and enemy centers of gravity (COGs). There are operational and strategic centers of gravity. However, at the tactical level, these are called decisive points. In addition, at the tactical level, FM 5-0 directs IPB, ISR synch, and ISR planning. These steps do not exist in JOPP. Lastly, JOPP considers the national strategic endstate that drives the CDR's military endstate his objectives, and the initial effects. In MDMP, however, tasks and purposes are nested to ensure that tactical endstates are linked to operational objectives. 40. What are the command and control implications of these differences? In JOPP or an the joint strategic/operational-level, we must ensure that assigned mission, end state and objectives of the next higher commander can be accomplished either in a single operations or in a campaign (due to the complexity and likely duration or intensity of the operation. Additionally, we must ensure that assigned command and control relationship are mutually supportive in a manner that facilitates an accomplishment of assigned objectives.

There are operational and strategic centers of gravity. However, at the tactical level, these are called decisive points. In addition, at the tactical level, FM 5-0 directs IPB, ISR synch, and ISR planning. These steps do not exist in JOPP. Lastly, JOPP considers the national strategic endstate that drives the CDR's military endstate his objectives, and the initial effects. In MDMP, however, tasks and purposes are nested to ensure that tactical endstates are linked to operational objectives. 40. What are the command and control implications of these differences? In JOPP or an the joint strategic/operational-level, we must ensure that assigned mission, end state and objectives of the next higher commander can be accomplished either in a single operations or in a campaign (due to the complexity and likely duration or intensity of the operation. Additionally, we must ensure that assigned command and control relationship are mutually supportive in a manner that facilitates an accomplishment of assigned objectives.
