Potential Global Partners for Smaller-Scale Contingencies
Abstract
This document is intended as an analytical resource to assist staffs at both DoD headquarters and operational commands to understand and take into account the capabilities that global partners can contribute to contingency operations. This information should enable DoD senior leaders and staff to assess better the planning and programmatic impacts of future SSC operations. The research focused on the organizations and resources outside of the DoD that are likely to be employed in SSC operations. The document is a compilation of the extensive research of historical and ongoing operations and the mandates and capabilities of the organizations that have participated in these operations, including many in which the U.S. military was not involved. The discussions attempt to provide greater understanding by grouping the disparate entities that share common characteristics and describing their capabilities and limitations. The community is dynamic and this document provides a "snapshot" in time, but sources are listed to enable readers to locate more current information as required.
