"This preface provides the user with necessary and relevant information concerning the development of critical combat functions (CCF): CCF 1, Conduct Intelligence Planning, CCF 2, Collect Information, CCF 3, Process Information, and CCF 4, Disseminate Intelligence, as performed by a brigade. A CCF is defined as. an integration (i.e., interelationship) among participants and tasks that represents a force multiplier with a definable outcome. Participants and organizational structure identified in this analysis are based on table of organization and equipment (TOE) 87042L1OO, dated 10/05/95. Field Manual (FM) 71-3, The Armored and Mechanized Infantry Brigade, January 1996, was used to identify special staff positions. These analyses of a brigade's performance of the CCFs which compose the Intelligence Bafflefield Operating System (BOS) are a product of the process of developing a training strategy for the brigade. The analyses describe tasks, participants, products, processes, and relationships necessary for providing intelligence to the heavy brigade commander and staff, higher and lower units, supporting units, and adjacent units."--DTIC.
