Sustainment Battle Staff and MDMP 4.0

The Sustainment Battle Staff and Military Decision Making Process (MDMP Guide is designed to assist newly assigned Sustainment Unit Commanders or Sustainment oriented staff Officers/NCOs in understanding the roles and capabilities of the Sustainment Brigade, the Combat Sustainment Support Battalions (CSSB), and the Brigade Support Battalion (BSB), as well as an understanding how to develop Unit Operations Orders (OPORDs) and sustainment related annexes through the use of a sustainment-logistics operations configured military decision making process checklist.
Throughout each chapter, Sustainment/Logistics Commanders and Staffs are exposed in great detail to the seven steps of the Military Decision Making Process as seen through the eyes of sustainment operations, enabling them to produce viable and functional operations orders, sustainment annexes/appendices, rehearsals, and back briefs. Various planning metrics and factors reflecting contemporary Large Scale Combat Operations (LASCO), modular brigade and battalions structures are also included, making The Sustainment Battle Staff and MDMP Guide a valuable addition to a Unit's Planning Standard Operating Procedures (PSOPs)
