The trend analysis spreadsheet takes the historical information from the MOE spreadsheet and allows the commander and staff to visually see where positive and negative activities are occurring within the AOR. The trend analysis spreadsheet depicts the commander’s objectives along with desired effects which are clearly identifiable. MOE indicators are aligned for each effect. From this information and analysis of why a trend is up or down, the staff can identify trouble spots and plan operations to reverse the negative trend.
CAO and CMO planners can capitalize on the positive trends and perform analysis to determine what is causing the positive increase and apply those techniques, tactics, and procedures (TTP) with higher HQ and subordinate task force commanders. In the same manner, negative actions can also be identified and actions taken or tactics changed to mitigate the decrease. The analysis from the trend analysis spreadsheet along with the TF commander’s assessments and intelligence summaries (INTSUMs) are used to develop the trend analysis slide. |
