Description

This handbook provides pre-doctrinal guidance on the planning, execution, and assessment of joint integrated persistent surveillance (JIPS) by a joint task force (JTF) and its components. Significant prior work has been done in support of persistent intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and much of the information in this handbook was gleaned from that data. However, the scope of this handbook pertains to the subset of persistent surveillance: the processes which contribute to creating a persistent surveillance strategy and those required for executing persistent surveillance missions. The document serves as a bridge between current best practices in the field and incorporation of value-added ideas in joint doctrine. This handbook draws on current doctrine, useful results from relevant studies and experimentation, and recognized best practices. It presents some challenges of persistent surveillance to include capability gaps and some potential solutions to these shortfalls, especially in the areas of planning and preparation, managing requirements and tasking, visualization and tracking, and assessment of persistent surveillance missions. It also offers some considerations for the future development of JIPS-related joint doctrine, training, materiel (logistics), leadership education, personnel, facility planning, and policy (DOTMLPF-P). This handbook is based on joint lessons and Service learned data; joint, multinational, and Service doctrine and procedures; training and education material from CAPSTONE, KEYSTONE, and PINNACLE senior executive education programs; joint and Service exercise observations, facilitated after-action reviews and commander's summary reports; related joint concepts; experimentation results; joint exercises and trip reports; joint publication assessment reports; research from advanced concept/joint capability technology development projects and capability development documentation for acquisition programs, and DOTMLPF-P change recommendations. This handbook also includes the results of a two-year analysis and experimentation effort conducted by Joint Doctrine Support Division and Solution Evaluation Division, with participation by all the Services. The JIPS project was driven by the following military problem statement: "The JFC requires adequate capability to rapidly integrate and focus national to tactical collection assets to achieve the persistent surveillance of a designated geographic area or a specific mission set." The genesis/mandate was that five of the top 40 FY 09-10 priority warfighter challenges (WFCs) require persistent surveillance solutions (WFCs 2, 4, 13, 20, 30) as reported by USPACOM, USCENTCOM, and the Marine Corps Combat Development Command. Experimentation included a stakeholder conference; baseline assessment; a constructive simulation effort; a "human-in-the-loop" experiment; and a multi-Service, coalition, live-fly environment experiment that simulated operations in Afghanistan (EMPIRE CHALLENGE 2010). Development of the JIPS handbook is tied to the four major outcomes from experimentation and reflects concepts of operations developed for the proposed DOTMLPF-P change recommendation submission.
