Leadership and Education- the preparation of commanders and senior leaders to lead, train, and organize their units
Personnel- availability of qualified persons for specific missions
Facilities- real property and facilities for military production, maintenance, and storage
Policy- issues that may affect implementation in the other 7 areas
Logic Framework
Maps goals and SMART objectives to the activities necessary to achieve desired changes.
DoDI 5132.14
Illustrates how outputs lead to outcomes; visually describes activities and the planned process of contributing to the initiative goals
OPUDATA
Objective- clear about what is being measured.
Practical- timely, current, and cost-effective
Useful- useful for management decision making
Direct- clearly represents intended results, is at the right level, notes assumption
Attributable- plausibly associated with the relevant initiative
Timely- indicator data is attainable when needed for decisions
Adequate - taken as a group, sufficient to measure the desired end state; all major aspects measured
PMP Criteria
Accessibility- the extent to which data is available for the USG to collect and use.
Criticality- whether the indicator is necessary to the coherence of the monitoring plan.
Feasibility- whether USG has the ability capacity will collect the relevant data
Reliability- The extent of data accuracy, dependability, repeatability
Sustainability- the regularity with which data is available.
Performance Management Plan
plan to manage the process of monitoring and evaluating and analyzing progress toward achieving results over the life of a program.
Performance Monitoring Plan
provides details of how and where we will obtain the data for each indicator and most importantly how to use that data
Indicator
a specific piece of information that infers the condition, state, or existence of something and provides a reliable means to ascertain performance or effectiveness.
JP 5-0, DoD Dictionary
MOE
Measure of Effectiveness- An indicator used to measure a current system state, with change indicated by comparing multiple observations over time.
DoD Dictionary / JP 5-0
MOP
Measure of Performance- an indicator used to measure a friendly action that is tied to measuring task accomplishment.
JP 5-0 / DoD Dictionary
SSCI Objective
Significant Security Cooperation Initiative - refers to a SMART objective, consistent with the NDS, framed as a desired partner role that investments in the PN capacity / capability are likely to impact the threat the initiative addresses.
The scope of an SSCI should be limited to a manageable 5-year plan for all activities addressing all security sector organizations that will receive assistance
Objective
is a statement of a desired result that meets the SMART criteria
Output
refers to the direct, tangible results of initiatives. A deliverable or product, good, or service directly resulting from a SC Activity or initiative
Outcome
refers to the results achieved by an initiative. (behavior/condition)
Short-term: Immediate effects of the initiative often focused on knowledge / attitude
Intermediate: intermediate effects on behavior, normative, or policy change
Long-term: long term, cumulative effects of interventions over time on what they ultimately aim to change
Input
refers to resources provided for program implementation. Examples are money, staff, time, and equipment.
Assumption
A specific supposition of the operating environment that is assumed to be true, in the absence of positive proof, essential for the continuation of planning
JP 5-0 / DoD Dictionary
CONOPS
Concept of the Operations- a verbal or graphics statement that clearly and concisely expresses what the commander intends to accomplish and how it will be done using available resources.
JP 5-0
Problem Tree
project planning tool that helps analyze and graphically breakdown the objective into smaller and more manageable parts. Pictorial representation of a problem and its causes.
Theory of Change
refers to a statement of expectations regarding the process by which planned activities will lead to stated objectives. It articulates assumptions and plans about how and why a set of activities and actions are expected to evolve in the future, including causal linkage through which early and intermediate outcomes will lead to long-term results.
Critical / Killer Assumptions
critical = most important for initiative success, should be in the logic framework
Killer = likely to cause project to fail if they don’t hold true. Only include if critical due to context
OTLF COMPONENTS
Objective Tree Logic Framework
Column 1 - Role (primary, supportive, oversight)
Column 2- narrative summary (comes from objective tree)
Column 3- Indicator and Target
Column 4- Assumptions and Risks
Column 5- Role - how do outcomes coincide with US desired PN roles
Target
qualitative or quantitative factor or variable that provides a simple and reliable means to measure achievement, to reflect the anticipated changes connected to an intervention, or help to assess the performance of a SC action
