Exercise Support

Our Success Follows Yours ®

Our Exercise Support capability delivers an advanced training environment honing mission command decisions in Joint, Interagency, Intergovernmental, and Multinational (JIIM) exercises across the Live, Virtual and Constructive (LVC) training domains.

CALIBRE delivers the support necessary to establish a CTC-like environment, at home station, affording reduced costs for training. We offer solutions that achieve a realistic training environment with a free thinking enemy and an external set of eyes to observe and provide input to improve the training experience.

(EXCON) cell, and our design team. Our design team will provide, as part of the EXCON cell, a day-by-day schedule of events supporting the Unit Commander’s training objectives for the exercise. Due to the complexity of exercise design, we identify critical requirements through the use of event mission planning and decision support tools.

>> >> Exercise ExecutionCALIBRE provides critical operational planning, TADSS integration, and analyst expertise in support of the LVC exercises. Our execution approach facilitates accurate and timely AARs and exercise take home packages for units regardless of the instrumentation system used for the exercise. How we accomplish exercise execution:• Understanding of the: Joint Land

Component Commander Training Capability (JLCCTC) Entity Resolution Federation (ERF)

>> >> Strategic PlanningCALIBRE’s strategic planning includes the development of a Planning Concept of Operations (PCO) document using the Six Pillar Combat Training Center (CTC) Program Construct: Training Units; Operations Group; Opposing Forces/Role Players; Instrumentation, Training Aids, Devices, Simulators, and simulations (ITADSS); Facilities/Infrastructure; and JIIM training opportunities. Our Strategic Planners liaise across echelons of command ensuring that training needs and essential requirements are met during each exercise.

>> >> Exercise DesignFrom Concept Development Workshop through Reception, Staging, Onward Movement, and Integration (RSOI) into the training days and concluding with After Action Reviews (AAR), CALIBRE’s rotational planning is an interactive process with the unit’s senior trainer (or Exercise Director), the exercise control

RESULTS

>> >> Proven Performance CALIBRE currently supports US Army Pacific (USARPAC) in the implementation of the Joint Pacific Multinational Readiness Capability (JPMRC) throughout the US Pacific Command (USPACOM) area of operation. CALIBRE helped establish a full-time JPMRC exercise support Instrumentation Training Analysis and Computer Simulation Support (ITACSS) capability. Our ITACSS cell complements observer controller/Trainers (OC/T), Opposing Force, and training academy support for home station training (HsT) and Multinational exercises.

>> >> Client Benefits • Train Brigade level exercises consisting of 5,000 soldiers per rotation; • Reduce the $30-40M training deployment cost by over 75%; • Increase organic equipment availability for HST by 3 months; and, •Keep Soldiers in theater and available to the PACOM Commander.

>> >> Client Comments •“JPMRC is one of the premier Home Station Training capabilities in the Army” • “The true power of this capability is to bring partners in and train together in the region, and improve as a multinational team.” • “I cannot replicate a CTC-like environment at home station and the JPMRC gives me the best ability to do that.”

• Ability to monitor, analyze, provide feedback, and report observations that occur during live and simulated training exercises

• Knowledge of Army Doctrine across all warfighting functional areas (maneuver, intelligence, fires, sustainment, command and control)

• Integrating TADSS with instrumentation systems

• Messaging exercise accomplishments with commands, rotational units, and Army Public Affairs

>> >> Role PlayersIn support of the LVC training domains, CALIBRE provides Role Players (general, foreign language speakers and professional civilians on the battlefield) and Special Effects personnel who enhance exercises and facilitate a high-quality, highly-effective training experience for soldiers. Role

players are an integral part of the live/constructive training environment, due to the fast paced nature of this environment and the emergency or no-notice changes that occur, CALIBRE has established a flexible, adaptable, and responsive delivery method to consistently meet all mission needs, short-notice changes, and same-day requests. We provide an on-site management team for continuous coordination with the EXCON and other critical supporting tenant units to discuss routine operations or address unexpected contingencies and support changes. We operationally prepare well before each training exercise, planning and coordinating a team of trained Role Players and Special Effects experts to meet specific rotation requirements. Doing so allows us to provide the correct mix of role players and facilitate the complexity associated with supporting multiple events simultaneously.

>> >> Exercise Support FeaturesWe leverage our exercise support expertise to deliver a battlefield like experience for contingency, non-contingency and civil military operations in support for decisive action training. Having an exportable exercise support capability enables commanders to deploy highly realistic, highly immersive training environments anywhere previously available only at Army Combat Training Centers. Our exercise support capability allows commanders to train:

• Brigade Combat Decisive Action Training• Functional Brigade Training• Mission Rehearsal Exercises• Small Unit Lanes Training• Peace Keeping Operations Training• Stability and Support Operations Training• Civil-Military Operations Training• Emergency Response Training
