  boards for sharing with the HN and partners. Presentation of civil products is dependent on OE restrictions,
  such as no electricity or other restrictive conditions.
  2-110. Information-sharing systems must use the lowest classification possible to ensure the widest
  distribution of information needed to coordinate with civilian agencies and organizations operating in the
  same operational area as military forces. During large scale combat operations, or in response to a disaster,
  the organic military information infrastructure enables CA forces to rapidly establish information-sharing
  architecture to store, integrate, and disseminate critical civil information. This is accomplished by tying local
  civilian entities into the military system or by providing data connections to civilian systems. This exchange
  of information increases the amount of information collected and supports an improved situational
  understanding, increased trust with other entities within the AO, unity of effort, and a more detailed common
  operational picture.
  2-111. At the staff level this architecture is centered on the technology and population-centric systems used
  to manage and disseminate data with partners. Sharing this architecture is mainly done in a technological
  manner, but also includes people and processes as well. Placing liaison officers within participating
  government agencies and host-nation institutions, receiving liaison officers from other government agencies
  placed inside commands, and conducting scheduled information-sharing meetings and other interactions are
  key to achieving CMI.
  2-112. Information-sharing architecture also includes working groups and coordination groups. The United
  Nations cluster system is an example of a coordination group and is a common system established to coordinate
  efforts following disasters. CA liaison officers assigned to participate in the United Nations cluster system (and
  other information-sharing platforms) should be empowered by their command to freely disseminate properly
  vetted and releasable civil knowledge products that are beneficial to the response effort. Liaison officers should
  be placed within other governmental organizations, such as the DOS or the United States Agency for
  International Development (USAID). In addition, liaison officers from organizations such as USAID and the
  DOS, should be placed in the command for seamless planning and coordination.
  Note: For more information on the United Nations cluster system, see FM 3-07.
  2-113. In large-scale combat operations, a supported CCDR might elect to establish a joint interagency
  coordination group or joint interagency task force tailored to meet the operational requirements of the
  combatant command. The joint interagency coordination group (or equivalent organization) provides the
  CCDR with the capability to collaborate, at the operational level, with civilian USG departments and
  agencies. The joint interagency coordination group (or equivalent organization) complements the interagency
  coordination that takes place at the national strategic level through the DOD, National Security Council, and
  Homeland Security Council systems. Members participate in deliberate planning and crisis action planning
  and provide links back to their parent organizations to help synchronize joint force operations with the efforts
  of civilian USG departments and agencies.
  Note: Due to the large number of interactions with local and host-nation partners, CA units require
  a significant investment in foreign disclosure training and assets that are authorized to conduct
  foreign disclosure.
  ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN CIVIL-MILITARY OPERATIONS CENTER
  2-114. Based on the operations plan of the commander, CA units (from the company through CACOM)
  establish CMOCs, as necessary, to serve as a mechanism for integration, coordination, and synchronization of
  the efforts of U.S. forces with unified action partners and IPI. A CMOC is task-organized with CA and other
  enabling assets (such as military intelligence, engineering, medical, and transportation) to meet specific mission
  tasks assigned to the CA element by the commander. The CMOC—in coordination with the S-9, G-9, and
  J-9—is designed to share information, identify and distribute resources, and assist in the execution of CAO.
  Figure 2-6, page 2-22, shows a notional CA CMOC configuration.
  2-115. As an extension of mission command, the CMOC provides the supported commander the ability to
  integrate, coordinate, and synchronize the activities of stakeholders, which are not under command authority,
