Leading Transformation UNCLASSIFIED 17 Why Business Rules? Purpose: T o provide guidance in the implementation and formalization of an ABCA training integration process. Help to: Establish framework for recurring interactions re the identification, scheduling, and execution of training Emplace mechanisms for requesting and coordinating training Reserve, operate, and maintain required networks Ensure required support is delivered

Leading Transformation UNCLASSIFIED 18 JTCP Business Rules (extracted) ABCA participation may be coordinated via JTCP, but no JNTC funding can be provided. Participation is “pay to play” indefinitely. Only support to JNTC-Accredited Service training programs in JTCP. OCONUS support is limited to Virtual, Constructive or LNO support due to excessive cost. Monthly/Quarterly meetings facilitate scheduling to support requirements. –Frequent collaboration between components is encouraged to enhance communication and supportability.

Leading Transformation UNCLASSIFIED 19 Issue : The enhancement of ABCA Joint, Combined, Multilateral training in order to increase operational capability, preparedness, and improve interoperability. Discussion: No formal procedure exists for scheduling and coordinating ABCA Joint Combined and Multilateral training and use of the full range of Live Virtual Constructive (LVC) training capabilities. An ABCA working group (WG), including Combatant Commands and JS J7, needs to be established to draft agreement(s), develop business rules, and identify/develop the appropriate forum for coordination. The WG will use the PACOM-AUS Joint Combined Training Capability (JCTC) work as a starting point. Formal business rules will require a long term effort, but short term efforts will continue to leverage existing multilateral venues. Endstate: Defense level policy guidance, and agreements. A formal coordination process, business rules and/or other documents as necessary for ABCA partners and combatant commands/Services that outlines the process for scheduling and coordinating bi-lateral and multilateral training and exercises enhanced via LVC enablers using ABCA networks. Short term endstate will address OIF/OEF pre-deployment training. Long term solution expected to take several years. POA&M: - Formalize overarching vision statement and reach agreement in principle - Establish combined ABCA WG membership and chair (Technical and Scheduling) (c/w) - Define ABCA training scope (c/w) - Establishment of a scheduling process for the JTEN and V&C assets - Develop and adopt ABCA country agreements/business rules formalizing this process OPR: USJFCOM; OCRs: Combatant Commands, JS J-7, PJHQ J7, HQJOC J7, and CFD/CFEC. Formal acceptance of Business Rules SEPT 08 MAR 10 Finalize Business Rules Approved POA&M MAR 09 Initial ABCA WG Agreement in principle Integration of ABCA Partners into the Joint Training Enterprise Established ABCA WG ABCA: American, British, Canadian, Australian DEC 09 Draft agreements / Business rules ABCA WG at WJTSC SEP 09 Develop CONOPS for JWFC events SEP 10 Briefer: Col Walrond JUN 09 OCT 09 Determine venue for event coordination
