AMSP-05 is a handbook that provides a generic process that enables operational planners to communicate their CAX requirements. It provides guidelines and best practices on what to consider during CAX planning & development and what interaction and information requirements are required to achieve success.
The Handbook complements and augments the Bi-SC 75-3 Collective Training and Exercise Directive (CT&ED) and is designed to provide support in planning, preparing and executing a (possibly distributed) CAX.
The seven modules of the CAX Handbook are broken down into steps.
Each module is mapped to one of the four stages of the NATO Exercise Process defined in Bi-SC 75-3.
Each module is also mapped to one of the seven steps of the Distributed Simulation Engineering and Execution Process (DSEEP).
