AFI 10-403 Deployment Planning and Execution
Crisis Action Planning
Deployment planning begins during the planning phase and continues through each step of the joint operation planning process. This ensures that all logistical considerations, including resource allocation, personnel movement, and timing, are integrated into the overall operational strategy. By maintaining a focus on deployment throughout the planning stages, military leaders can effectively anticipate and address potential challenges, enhancing the mission's success. Continuous assessment and adjustment of deployment plans are crucial as the operational environment evolves.
The primary objective of deployment planning is to ensure a smooth and efficient transition of a system, application, or service from development into a live production environment. This involves coordinating resources, schedules, and processes to minimize downtime and disruptions. Effective deployment planning also aims to mitigate risks and ensure that all stakeholders are informed and prepared for the changes. Ultimately, it seeks to optimize the deployment process to achieve desired operational outcomes.

Deployment planning typically begins during the later stages of the project development cycle, often after the initial design and development phases are complete. It is essential to start planning early enough to ensure that all logistical, technical, and resource considerations are addressed before the actual deployment. This proactive approach helps to minimize risks and ensures a smooth transition to production environments. Additionally, ongoing communication with stakeholders is crucial throughout the planning process.
