2013 Programme of Work
CJOS COE Transforming Allied Maritime Potential into Reality
• Introduction:
• The CFAO interim version (last updated version June 2012) is a comprehensive document covering all aspects for Alliance operations both in and out-of-area., Art V and Crisis Response Operations. The aim of the document is to re-establish the hierarchy of documents extending from the Strategic Concept, and bring coherence and greater clarity of purpose.
The Concept:
• Review the Bilateral Strategic Command (BiSC) CFAO with a view of providing recommendations that link ongoing and emerging Maritime Domain concepts with CFAO, MC 400/3, Alliance Maritime Strategy (AMS) and NATO Strategic Concept, CFI, SFI.
Way ahead:
• Continuous evaluation, scrutinize gaps in adjacent maritime papers, make proposals for changes / supplements.
Conceptual Framework for Allied
Operations (CFAO)
CJOS COE Transforming Allied Maritime Potential into Reality
Introduction:
• Fall out of the Chicago summit
• Allies shall continue to effectively use capabilities together in view of a decreasing operational tempo. Specifically, aims to ensure that the Alliance retains the valuable gains in interoperability achieved in recent operations.
The Concept:
• Deals with the ability to connect all NATO forces, including those from the NATO Command structure (NCS), NATO Force structure (NFS) and national headquarters, (also from non NATO countries) when required, to maintain and enhance NATO’s combat effectiveness. Interoperability will be a key consideration.
Way ahead (contribute to ongoing ACT work in two areas):
– Review the key NATO documents to assess their relevance to CFI implementation, providing initial feedback from a maritime perspective and making recommendations for further in-depth analysis.
– Remain involved in discussions with the NATO Command Structure (NCS) and NATO Force Structure (NFS) HQs to contribute to the development of a Joint Task Force (JTF) HQ concept for the NFS HQs and their collaboration with Maritime Command (MARCOM) Northwood.
Connected Forces Initiative (CFI)
CJOS COE Transforming Allied Maritime Potential into Reality
Introduction:
• SFI is to establish the means within ACT / NATO to review and evaluate ongoing futures work in order to gain and maintain a shared perspective of the Future Security and Operations Environment 2030 and beyond that contributes to NATO’s enduring transformational efforts.
• Focuses on post-AFG era
• Main goal is to provide inputs to the NATO Defense Planning Process and to interweave all transformation initiatives
The Concept:
• Define a consistent, coordinated methodology for conducting Strategic Foresight Analysis (SFA) to distill possible futures from examining common themes, trends, drivers, and scenarios (Think Tanks, Academia, International Organizations, etc..)
• Describe and continually update Future Security and Operating Environments using SFA outcomes to enable ACT to identify potential game changers and reduce the risk of encountering “black swans” and “wild cards.
Way ahead:
• Attend 3 workshops (Oct, Nov, Dec 2012)

Implementation Concept for
Maritime Security Operations - ICMSO
1
6
Introduction:
• MSO Concept (MC 588) was approved in 2011. IMS tasked both strategic commands to develop the Implementation Concept for MSO
• ACO is leading the overall concept development with support of ACT
The Concept:
• CJOS COE along with other supporting COEs and relevant NATO Commands will support ICMSO concept development. ICMSO will clearly define how NATO is to execute MSO tasks effectively in order to achieve required effects, without introducing new costly capabilities
Way ahead:
• CJOS to provide support to ACT and ACO in ICMSO Concept Development - 2013
• CJOS to attend the CD&E Conference 2012 (Lithuania); provide a presentation on MSC and moderate two Syndicates during the ICMSO Workshop
• CJOS to lead the concept development for "MSO Support to MSA" ICMSO subtask as part of ICMSO concept development plan - 2013
CJOS COE Transforming Allied Maritime Potential into Reality
Introduction:
• Maritime Security Operations Concept (MC 588) was approved in 2011. In September 2011, IMS tasked both strategic commands to propose development of necessary Implementation Concept (ICMSO)
• CJOS COE will lead the Concept Development for “MSO Support to MSA” subtask of ICMSO
The Concept:
• "MSO Support to MSA" is identified as one of the subtasks of MSO and the related concept will be developed as part and parallel to ICMSO concept development
Way ahead
• CJOS to provide support to ACT and ACO in ICMSO Concept Development - 2013
• CJOS to attend the CD&E Conference 2012 (Lithuania); provide a presentation on MSC and moderate two Syndicates during the ICMSO Workshop
• CJOS to lead the concept development for "MSO Support to MSA" ICMSO subtask as part of ICMSO concept development plan - 2013
Maritime Situational Awareness (MSA)
CJOS COE Transforming Allied Maritime Potential into Reality
Maritime Security Conference - MSC
1
8
Introduction:
• Further MSC’s to be planned. MSC series will now evolve into a series of workshops and working groups to rationalize the development efforts of the MS Concepts and not having annual international conferences
The Concept:
• Conduct further world class events to promote and generate constructive dialogue to help resolve complex maritime security issues. Target audience remains (senior maritime leaders and decision makers from the military, civilian government, commercial maritime communities, international organizations and academia brought together from all around the world
• CJOS COE and COE CSW, in conjunction with other supporting COEs and relevant NATO Commands, will seek to formulate a strategic campaign development plan which will enable NATO to implement the NATO MSO concept.
The Way ahead:
• MSC will not be organized in 2013; the decision is not to organize annual conferences but workshops focusing on PoW projects.
• A series of workshops will be organized in support of ICMSO/"MSO Support to MSA" concept development; which may lead to MSC 2014
CJOS COE Transforming Allied Maritime Potential into Reality
Introduction:
• MNE 7 will be closed in Dec 2012
• Conduct follow up on action items and efforts resulting from MNE 7
The Concept:
• Addressing operational access challenges by focusing on the versatile, agile capabilities required to project combined forces into an operational area with sufficient freedom of action to accomplish their mission
Way ahead:
• Senior Leader Seminar MNE 7 in Oslo (Dec 2012)
• Awaiting further decision on exact topic for MCDC (“entry operations”?)
• Scrutinizing CJOS COE’s specific role in the maritime remit
Multinational Capability Development
Campaign (MCDC)
CJOS COE Transforming Allied Maritime Potential into Reality
Introduction:
• Increased operational complexity and multiple maritime stakeholders involved, make the existing environments particularly vulnerable to cyber attacks, which could result in severe maritime service disruptions.
The Concept:
• Conduct a literature review of the current state of Maritime Cyber strategies, policies and concepts to determine if Maritime Cyber related issues are being adequately addressed. Identify cyber arena gaps that need to be addressed with new and future concepts, as a common and comprehensive approach, eventually not only from a military prospective, but also from the civilian and industry side .
Way ahead:
• TBD based on the outcome of the review with the proposed deadline on 20th of Nov (CDRE’s Brief) and 14th of Dec (Final Report).
