how to respond to an emergency if FHA
if emergency, msut act quick to attain immediate life-saving objectivs. later, design can be refined to facilitate a clearer operational approach
important when doing HA projects
-stable vs unmstable political/economy
-can they provide key status
-is government accountable (mass mistrust, civil unrest, epidemic, natural disaster)
0security, infrastrucuture, logistics, medical
what must be clearly incorporated into operational design
LOE
end state
phasing
objectives
8 steps of JOPP
initiation
mission analysis
COA development
COA analysis
COA comparision
AOA approval
plan/order
develop
what should problem statements (r/t JOPP) not include
-NOT pose a solution (that is part of mission analysis/COA development during later JOPP state. if you pose solutions now, you run the risk of solving the wrong problem)
-account for current situation w/o prediction future (further ideas should be taken from gaining understandign of OE and take into account hix but limiting projections. if a solution is propsed even implicitly, it can led the commaned/plannign to narow focus too soon
-also, don’t imply cause (correlation not equal causation)
-posing the problem might actually ID a symtpom as part of hte larger problem)
design versus planning
D: brainstorming, critical reasoning, critical thinking
P: deliberate analytical thinking, detailed production of plans/orders
why might design be limited in operational development
design may be limited in a time sensitive emergency b/c severe time constraints so operational approach may be limited
