Info

Executive Summary team’s final products. The red team should review key sections of the plan and offer recommendations while those sections are still in the draft stage. Joint Planning During Execution Planning continues throughout execution in three venues, each focused on distinct but overlapping timeframes: future plans, future operations, and current operations. The red team plays distinct roles in each of these, but should normally concentrate its efforts in future plans. The Red Team and Joint Intelligence Despite similarities, red teams have different objectives than the intelligence staff and should not be used as a substitute for sound intelligence analysis. Distinctions between Red Team and Intelligence Functions Red Team Contributions to Intelligence Red teams should be organizationally, physically, and intellectually separate from the intelligence function in order to ensure that products are not shaped by the same institutional factors that influence the output of the intelligence analysts. Even when the red team and the intelligence staff examine the same problem set, their products should be reviewed and approved through different product approval chains. The intelligence staff seeks to produce accurate assessments and estimates backed by reliable multi-source information and sound reasoning. Red team intelligence-related objectives could include the following: • Constructively challenging assumptions and assessments. • Inviting consideration of a broader range of interpretations and conclusions. • Suggesting new issues for study or issues that need additional study. • Identifying hidden assumptions, potential wildcards, and likely effects. • Questioning whether the right problems are being considered. Red team contributions to intelligence include critical review, production support, complementary analysis, devil’s advocacy, deception and counterdeception, and collaboration. x JDN 1-16
Executive Summary Support to Intelligence Production Red Team Support to Intelligence Planning Red teams develop independent assessments of a situation or an adversary’s capabilities to support intelligence products. These assessments are developed using a variety of techniques that counter organizational and analytical factors that can lead to surprise. During production of plans-related intelligence assessments and estimates, the red team should independently assess the adversary’s center of gravity; critical capabilities, requirements, and vulnerabilities; and most likely and most dangerous COAs. Conclusion This joint doctrine note (JDN) provides guidance for the employment of a command red team on joint planning, analysis, and decision making, and on how to optimize the integration of red teams into joint functions and operations. The guidance in this JDN is not authoritative. If conflicts arise between the contents of this JDN and the contents of a joint publication (JP), the JP will take precedence for the activities of joint forces, unless the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff provides more current and specific guidance. xi
