2.5.12.1. The purpose of this section is to outline DOTmLPF-P changes that are required to successfully implement the materiel capability solution. This information also informs the DOTmLPF-P review and endorsement conducted during staffing of the CDD.

2.5.12.2. Sponsors must address all DOTmLPF-P considerations in a CDD or state that an element is not applicable. In cases where one or more of the DOTmLPF-P factors may not be applicable, the Sponsor shall coordinate

with the applicable organization identified in Annex F to Appendix G of this enclosure to ensure the DOTmLPF-P endorsement is not withheld due to missing information. For CDDs describing multiple increments, all DOTmLPF- P considerations that are increment dependent must be clearly identified.

2.5.12.3. Discuss any DOTmLPF-P changes associated with fielding the system, including those approaches that would impact Service and Joint Concepts, CONOPS, or plans within a CCMD Area of Responsibility (AOR), including any changes associated with the mitigation of risks of known intelligence shortfalls. Describe the implications for all recommended changes.

2.5.12.4. DOTmLPF-P changes are considered from two perspectives:

2.5.12.4.1. Enabling - changes that enable the implementation, operations, and support of the system;

2.5.12.4.2. Integrating - changes that must be made to support integration of this system with fielded capability solutions.

2.5.12.5. Include each of the DOTmLPF-P areas impacted by the capability solution addressed in the CDD. For DOTmLPF-P changes already addressed in separate DCRs, cite the DCR that applies and provide status. For DOTmLPF-P changes not already addressed in separate DCRs, provide details of the recommended changes and implementation plans in the following areas:

2.5.12.5.1. Doctrine - Identify changes to joint doctrine that may be required to fully implement the capability solution.

2.5.12.5.2. Organization - Identify changes to organizational structures that may be required to fully implement the capability solution.

2.5.12.5.3. Training.

2.5.12.5.3.1. Specify training required to fully realize the operational utility of the system. Outline changes or updates to current training practices that enable a new system to replace a legacy system. Training implications must be addressed from the beginning of the acquisition process, integrated with the planning, materiel development, and production, and updated throughout the capability solution’s lifecycle.

2.5.12.5.3.2. In cases where the mission of the system is training, or operational context requires the warfighter to dictate materiel training requirements or approaches, the Sponsor should include training performance attributes (KPPs, KSAs, and/or APAs) in Section 5 (Performance Attributes) of the CDD.

2.5.12.5.4. Materiel - Identify materiel items, systems, or equipment needed to support the required capability. Materiel refers to increased quantities, modifications, improvements, or alternate applications of existing materiel or the purchase of COTS, GOTS, or NDI.

2.5.12.5.5. Leadership and Education. Identify changes to leadership and education programs and associated processes that may be required to ensure personnel are capable of fully implementing the capability solution.

2.5.12.5.6. Personnel. Identify changes to personnel qualities, types (officer, enlisted, civilian, and/or contractor), and skill sets (e.g., MOS, AFSC, NEC) required to fully implement the capability solution.

2.5.12.5.7. Facilities. Specify facility, shelter, supporting infrastructure, and ESOH asset requirements, and the associated lifecycle costs, availability, and acquisition milestone schedule(s) related to supporting the system. Detail any basing needs (forward and main operating bases, institutional training base, and depot requirements).

2.5.12.5.8. Policy. Identify changes to policy that may be required to fully implement the capability solution.
