NARR/REF A IS MARINE REQUIREMENTS OVERSIGHT COUNCIL (MROC) DECISION MEMORANDUM (DM) 12-2012 THAT DIRECTS DC CDI TO DEVELOP A MAGTF INTEGRATION PLAN (MIP) IN SUPPORT OF POM-14 PLANNING. REF B IS MROC DM 04-2013 WHICH EXPANDED POM-14 MIP TO INCLUDE THE MARINE CORPS ENTERPRISE INTEGRATION PLAN IN SUPPORT OF POM-15 PLANNING. REF C IS MROC DM 07-2013 ON CAPABILITY PORTFOLIO REVIEW METHODOLOGY. REF D IS MARADMIN 036/13 DTG 161808Z REPORTS THE RESULTS OF THE ASSISTANT COMMANDANT OF THE MARINE CORPS DIRECTED GREEN TEAM STUDY, AND DIRECTS DEPUTY COMMANDANT, COMBAT DEVELOPMENT AND INTEGRATION (DC CDI) TO DEVELOP AN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR CPM.
RMKS/1. PURPOSE. THIS MARADMIN PROVIDES DIRECTION, GUIDANCE AND INITIAL SCHEDULE FOR CONDUCTING THE POM-18 MARINE CORPS CAPABILITIES BASED ASSESSMENT (MC CBA).
2. BACKGROUND. IAW REF A AND B DC CDI IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DEVELOPING FUTURE MARINE CORPS CAPABILITIES AND IDENTIFYING DOCTRINE, ORGANIZATION, TRAINING, MATERIEL, LEADERSHIP AND EDUCATION, PERSONNEL, FACILITIES, AND POLICY (DOTMLPF-P) SOLUTIONS THAT HELP MITIGATE AND ELIMINATE CAPABILITY GAPS. MC CBA PROVIDES A SYNCHRONIZED APPROACH FOR DEVELOPING MARINE CORPS CAPABILITIES. IT IS A DELIBERATE PROCESS THAT IS EXECUTED ANNUALLY AND SUPPORTS MARINE CORPS RESPONSIBILITIES WITHIN THE PLANNING PHASE OF THE PLANNING, PROGRAMMING, BUDGETING, AND EXECUTION (PPBE) PROCESS. REF C AND D ARE THE RESULTS FROM THE FOUR-MONTH "GREEN TEAM STUDY" TO REVIEW AND ASSESS THE MARINE CORPS PROCESSES FOR REQUIREMENTS DETERMINATION, ACQUISITION, RESOURCING, AND SUSTAINMENT OF GROUND EQUIPMENT. THE STUDY WAS CONDUCTED TO PROVIDE SENIOR LEADERS RECOMMENDATIONS TO IMPROVE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PROGRAM PRIORITIZATION AND RESOURCE ALLOCATION, AND TO IMPLEMENT MORE TIMELY AND EFFECTIVE PROGRAM OVERSIGHT DECISIONS. DURING THE COURSE OF THE STUDY, CPM EMERGED AS THE PREFERRED APPROACH TO ACHIEVE THE STATED GOALS. THE GREEN TEAM DEVELOPED A FRAMEWORK FOR CPM THAT INCLUDED FOUR CORE COMPONENTS: FOCUSING DC CDI ALONG JCAS; ADVOCATES AND PROPONENTS SHOULD FOCUS ON CAPABILITIES VICE INDIVIDUAL PROGRAMS IN THE EARLY STAGES OF PLANNING; ESTABLISHING A CAPABILITY PORTFOLIO REVIEW BOARD (CPRB); AND DESIGNING AN ENHANCED CHAPTER 8. DC CDI AS THE LEAD FOR CPM WAS DIRECTED TO MORE FULLY DEVELOP THE CPM CONCEPT AND PROVIDE AN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AND POAM FOR MROC APPROVAL.
