Capability-based planning focused on materialisation of Alliance´s ambitions has already been a reality for national strategic planners for several years. This relatively new planning environment offers not only new, broader possibilities but also new challenges. Although there are several documents describing capability-based planning available but no one is focused on a methodology how recognised capability needs is possible to translate into a common planning system explored within national ministries of defence. This article has an aim to overbridge this gap using a logical link between a package of required capabilities and existing hierarchy of goals, measures and tasks exploring a functional areas (DOTLMPFI) tool. Considering an idea the capability is a dynamic issue having its own specific life cycle it is necessary to think over various phases of its life. These phases influence directly a real level of the capability. Hence various phases have their own demands on allocated resources it is not sufficient to plan resources just for achievement of an appropriate level of the needed capability but it is also necessary to pay attention to other parts of the life cycle, especially sustainment. |
