  B-5. During the targeting meeting, the collection management team advises the targeting working group on
  the ability of available collection systems to acquire and identify HPTs, track HPTs, and support BDA on
  HPTs. The team assists the group, as needed, in developing an architecture that disseminates target-related
  intelligence to attack systems in near-real-time. The targeting working group further refines event templates
  and associated event matrices, developed during IPB, into targeting matrices, which provide the level of
  detail the collection management team requires to focus information collection to support targeting. The team
  uses targeting matrices, IPB products, and the TSS to break down HPTs into collection functions, SIRs, NAIs
  and TAIs, and specific collection tasks. (See ATP 2-01, ATP 2-01.3, and ATP 2-33.4 for detailed
  information)
  DETECT
  B-6. The current operations integration cell is the primary cell responsible for directing the execution of the
  information collection effort to detect HPTs identified in the decide function. The intelligence cell (with the
  current operations integration cell) must focus their intelligence analysis efforts to support both situation
  development and the targeting effort. Therefore, close coordination between the intelligence cell and the FSE
  is critical. Key staff members in this effort include the G-3/S-3, G-2/S-2, information operations officer,
  FAIO (when staffed), targeting officer, and FSCOORD/FSO.
  B-7. The collection manager directs the information collection synchronization effort with focus on PIRs
  and target intelligence requirements. The collection manager ensures the information collection plan supports
  the finalized targeting plan. The collection management team, in coordination with the targeting team (or
  intelligence targeting officer), develops collection strategies to satisfy PIRs and targeting intelligence
  requirements. The collection management team may have to differentiate collection tasks to support the
  acquire and identify collection function or the track collection function when a collection asset cannot
  perform both collection functions. This is a major challenge during large-scale ground combat operations at
  which time the concept of persistent surveillance is often not possible. National technical means may have
  to serve as an intermittent form of surveillance in conjunction with Army collection assets to acquire, identify,
  and track HPTs. Some collection assets provide actual targetable information while information from other
  collection assets requires PED to produce valid targets. The target priorities developed in the decide function
  are used to expedite the processing of targets. The collection management team:
  * Plans for synchronized collection, focusing on the proper HPT at each phase in the COA.
  * Plans collection to satisfy that set of SIRs if BDA is required to support the COA.
  * Plans and arranges, when possible, direct dissemination of targeting intelligence from the collector
  to the targeting cell or the appropriate fires element.
  B-8. During operations, the collection management team monitors the execution of the collection
  management plan; uses the information collection matrix to ensure collection assets are focused on the proper
  HPTs (and their associated NAIs and TAIs); tips off the appropriate fires element as targets of opportunity
  present themselves, and cross-cues collection assets to support the targeting effort. When detecting a planned
  HPT, the information is quickly disseminated to the FAIO to determine if the target is an HPT, the target's
  priority, and if the target complies with TSS. To ensure the target-related intelligence is disseminated quickly,
  the FAIO should be co-located in the intelligence cell with communications to the FSE/fires cell. If the target
  is an HPT, the FAIO coordinates with the intelligence cell and disseminates the target-related intelligence
  directly to the FSE/fires cell. If the commander approves actioning the target, it is transferred to a firing unit.
  In those cases where the situation dictates the development of a new HPT or when the staff assesses a
  significant change to an existing HPT, subsequent target development must occur. When subsequent target
  development is necessary, the targeting information is forwarded for intelligence analysis and the target
  development process must occur quickly. Upon identifying a target specified for attack, analysts pass the
  target to the FSE/fires cell. The FSE/fires cell executes the attack against the target. (See ATP 2-01, ATP 2-
  01.3, and ATP 2-33.4 for detailed information)
  DELIVER
  B-9. During the deliver function, the intelligence staff examines potential target systems and their
  components to make a recommendation for generating the commander's intended effect on the target, though
  the final decision is made by the FSO in collaboration with the operations officer. The intelligence input is
