151
what does the current defense planning process tend to base decisions on
tends to base decisions on mostly inflexible assumptions
- this increases the risk b/c those deacons may be wrong
152
problem with force-sizing scenarios
doesn't account for uncertainties - potential for many possible future scenarios to engage and inability of planning process to accurately ID the range of scenarios that might dominate
153
starting point for defense planning methodolgoies
supply based or demand based
derived from threats, desired, capabilities, or both
154
why is the majority of defense planning demand
top-down planning method that begins w/highlevel strategic demand signals
155
demand-led defense planning
streategies capabilities are based on ideas about the requirements of future
156
supply based defense plannign
begins with a specific real world constraint (e.g current force size, capability mix, budget limit) and builds planning from there
157
differences between the two typs of military defense planning
supply based: resource focused plan
demand based: capabilities and threat planning
GOAL: spending priorities comprehensive force strength, feasible/affordable capabilities mix
158
initial strategy focussd on desired outcomes
implementation must be grounded in realism (capabilities, nature of existing forces, feasibility, affordability...)
159
2 flaws in defense planning
- not responsive enough to quickly adapt to changes in the strategic environment (dynamics) what scenarios are most plausible and most concerning shift)
- process focuses too narrowly on singularly approves arbitrary solutions that constrain alternative contingencies
160
skunkworks project

161
skunkworks and defense planning
to improve defense contingency planning, recommended to use scenarios skunkworks that constantly generates scenarios, contingencies, alternative CONOPS, key assumptions, and skunkworks objects. scouts for exploring the geostrategic horizon
162
take seriously the need to ID key assumptions built into contingency scenarios...
subject each assumption to rigorous analysis/debate. to information the discussion w/ a clearer understanding of it's relationships between specific assumptions and outcomes
