 Task Organization

Definition

A relationship (defined to the minute) between force elements for mapping temporary changes toorganizational and exercise or operation-specific command and control relationships.

Use

Military leaders can use this temporary command and control relationship to organize their (temporarily) subordinate units to fulfill a particular order. They can also change this relationship for a specific location.

The mapping in the system is used for information purposes only. The business processes are still run using organizational and exercise or operation-specific command and control relationships.

A task organization can only be activated if both force elements have the status Active.

Structure

Task organizations are displayed and edited on the Task Organization tab page in the Structures Workbench .
