2.5.1.4. Section 4: Change Recommendations.

2.5.1.4.1. The purpose of this section is to outline recommendations in one or more DOTmLPF-P considerations that provide or enable capability solutions to satisfy validated CR and associated capability gaps. This section also identifies related interdependencies that must be satisfied to provide a successful capability solution.

2.5.1.4.2. Use this section to describe change recommendations in terms of each applicable joint DOTmLPF-P consideration. See Annex F to Appendix G to this enclosure for more guidance on DOTmLPF-P content.

2.5.1.4.3. For each change recommendation to a DOTmLPF-P consideration, provide the following:

2.5.1.4.3.1. Description of the recommended change.

2.5.1.4.3.2. Changes to TTPs and implications on the safe use of the proposed non-materiel solution in the proposed operating environment.

2.5.1.4.3.3. Forces and systems affected, and any impact on interoperability.

2.5.1.4.3.4. If a recommendation includes incorporating future technology (materiel component), include a brief discussion of the maturity of critical technology or future systems involved and a risk assessment of the approach.

2.5.1.4.3.5. Related support that is required to implement recommendations, including, but not limited to, additional research, hardware, DoD manpower, test range time, contractor support, etc.

2.5.1.4.3.6. Cite any DoD policies or other issues (treaties; protocols; agreements; legal issues; DoD roles, missions, and functions; other U.S. Government agency/department, etc.) that would prevent the effective implementation of the recommended changes and the reason the proposed changes cannot comply with it. Provide proposed changes to the policy or other issue and identify other potential implications from the proposed mitigation.

2.5.1.4.3.7. If impacted by the recommendations in the Joint DCR, update applicable DoDAF OVs and CVs to reflect how the capability solutions outlined in the Joint DCR address validated requirements and close or mitigate associated capability gaps in the capability portfolios without introducing unnecessary redundancy in capability or capacity.
