The document outlines plans for a new "Friday Brief Review" process to create a more integrated view of information presented in weekly briefings. The goals are to provide greater strategic context, highlight connections between data, and identify actions and objectives. A new approach is proposed to combine tactical, operational, and strategic information into a single briefing focused on activities, cases, metrics, and tying data to overall performance goals and strategic goals.

1. Friday Brief Review Chartered in June 2002, the goal of the Friday Brief Review is to create a more cohesive, integrated view of all information briefed by the D7 staff at the weekly Friday Brief. Overall objective : greater visibility into the integrated meaning of the information presented, what it means to our overall mission accomplishment, what action, if any, is envisioned, and what do we expect to achieve by doing so. We expect lessons learned and progress made to help us potentially achieve greater integration for any daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or annual brief. Long term – we envision this project to lay a foundation for overall increased Maritime Domain Awareness, help define our Integrated Command Center needs, and keep us in tune with the “Information Battle Rhythm.”

2. Friday Brief Review (Here’s where its headed…) Activities Cases Any action that consumes resources. Ratios Any intermediate measure, index or correlation of data from Activities or Cases. Any group of Activities connected to a common incident. Additional longer term efforts we enabled using this approach: - Risk considerations - RSA connections - RP & Program issues - Performance Plan updates - Business Plan updates Performance Goal Strategic Goal

3. Friday Brief Review (Here’s where its headed…) Activities Cases Any action that consumes resources. Ratios Performance Goal Any intermediate measure, index or correlation of data from Activities or Cases. Any group of Activities connected to a common incident. Strategic Goal Tactical Brief (daily) Operational Brief (weekly) Strategic Brief (monthly / quarterly)

4. Old Approach (o) (m) (s) (dl) (dpa) Audience Data Data Data Data Data (Stove-piped illustration of single data points, no cohesion, little meaning, little strategic “big-picture” value)

5. New Approach (o) (m) (s) (dl) (dpa) Audience AOR Mission Resources (Integrated, cohesive, results-oriented, “big picture” presented with more strategic value and meaning) Activity Cases Ratios Performance Goal Strategic Goal (Programmatic orientation designed with longer-range view in mind, not intended for a daily brief)

6. New Approach Audience Activity Cases Ratios Performance Goal Strategic Goal Tactical Strategic Operational Daily – Case driven Provide three (3) levels – based on audience, timing and briefing purpose Bi-weekly – Operation driven Quarterly – Performance goal driven

7. Issues Considered Offer more complete case visibility Reveal causal factors Highlight cross-program activity linkages Create no additional stand alone systems Use existing data Consider future enterprise applications Consider classification Reduce staff effort – enable redeployment (Conduct Operational Analysis v. brief preparation)

8. Possible New Information New presentation might depict information something like this… Performance Goal : Reduce Illegal Migrants (In this illustration – Tactical , Operational and Strategic information has been combined – not intentional except to simply reveal nature of new information) “ What is current measure/quantity?” (Single data point) “ What was done to achieve this goal?” (Activities & Cases) “ What resources were consumed?” (Results, Cost) “ How does this compare with last wk, mo, qtr, yr?” (Ratios) “ Did any intangibles come into play?” (i.e. Political Index) “ What is the trend of this Goal?” (Trend - up, down, unknown) “ What is forecast for the future…will trend continue?” (Forecasting) “ Does achieving this goal impact other goals? How?” (Correlation) “ Any known roadblocks, issues or concerns to discuss?” “ Recommendation: Stay the course? Change? Why?” (Future Plans)

9. Example of New Slide (Where possible – retain brief focus on Mission, Resources and AOR) Performance Goal – “Lives Saved” Activity Cases 263 UTB hours for SAR (205 weekly avg.) 43 WPB hours for SAR (23 avg.) 12 Cutter hours for SAR (7 avg.) 423 HH-65 hours for SAR (376 avg.) Ratios 8 Lives Saved from EPIRB cases (4 avg.) 20 Lives Saved from Vessel Adrift cases (18 avg.) 52 resource hours per Life Saved (36 avg.) $13,245 (AFC-30) per Life Saved ($12,665 avg.) Group Key West 14 SAR cases (9 avg.) Group St. Pete 11 SAR cases (12 avg.) Group Charleston 09 SAR cases (08 avg.) 28 Lives Saved (25 avg.) 03 Lives Lost (01 avg.) Saved 91% of Mariner’s in Distress (85.2% avg.) Goal – 85% Performance Goal Strategic Goal

10. Commandant Performance Goals (Goals listed Constitute the Foundation of D7 Measurement Efforts) Conceive of method to best roll up Tactical Information into Strategic brief Search and rescue : save all mariners in distress and property in peril. Maritime Homeland Security : minimize potential for maritime terrorist incident. Maritime workers : eliminate crewmember fatalities. Passenger vessels : eliminate passenger vessel fatalities. Recreational boating : eliminate recreational boating fatalities. Drug interdiction : reduce the flow of illegal drugs. Migrant interdiction : reduce the flow of undocumented migrants entering the U.S. Foreign fishing vessels : eliminate illegal EEZ encroachment by foreign fishing vessels. Military readiness : achieve and sustain complete military readiness for CG units as required by the department of defense. Military operations : provide core competencies when requested by the department of defense or department of state. Aids to navigation : maximize vessel mobility in ports and waterways. Vessel traffic : eliminate vessel collisions, allisions, and groundings. Oil spills : eliminate oil discharged into the water. Plastics and garbage : eliminate debris discharged into the water. Marine pollution : minimize the adverse effects of pollution. Living marine resources : improve the health of fish stocks and other LMR.
