  D-12. The following steps are a recommended way of completing the TSM while conducting the targeting
  working group.
  * Step One. Select, or update the HPTL. These targets are derived from the S-2’s list of HVTs.
  * Step Two. Determine and prioritize collection assets responsible for detecting, confirming, or
  denying the location of each suspected target or HPT. This information should then be entered
  into the “detect” portion of the TSM. See table D-4. Be specific, state what unit or asset must
  detect or confirm or deny the location of each specific target. Clear and concise tasking must be
  given to acquisition assets and resources. Mobile HPT targets must be detected and tracked to
  maintain current target location. Assets and resources should be placed in the best position
  according to estimates of when and where the enemy targets will be. Consider assigning a NAI to
  the target and enter the number on the TSM.
  * Step Three. Determine which attack asset or resource will be used to attack each target once
  detected or confirmed by using the list of delivery assets and resources available. Enter this
  information into the “deliver” portion of the TSM. The lethal and nonlethal effects and applicable
  aspects of EW and information related capabilities are considered depending on the commander’s
  targeting guidance and desired effects. Consider redundant means to attack each target. When
  determining an attack asset or resource for each target, the attack guidance is also determined and
  entered. Determine for each delivery means when to attack the target (immediately, as acquired,
  or planned) and the effects to be created by attacking the target. For example, the effects of Army
  indirect fires, joint fires, and EW, including nonlethal effects can be to deceive, degrade, delay,
  deny, destroy, disrupt, divert, exploit, interdict, neutralize, or suppress the target.
  * Step Four. Determine and prioritize which assets will assess how well the attack was executed and
  whether desired effects were created on the targets. Enter this information into the “assess” portion
  of the TSM.
