  2-33. The working group brings staff sections together. The staff sections validate requirements and
  deconflict organic and attached collection assets’ missions and taskings. Input is required from each
  member of the working group. The output of the working group is validation of outputs. This includes the
  following:
  * Understand how the enemy is going to fight.
  * Refine the list of requirements.
  * Confirm the final disposition of all collection assets.
  * Review friendly force information requirements, priority intelligence requirements (PIRs), and
  EEFI.
  * Validate outputs of other working groups (for example, fusion and targeting working groups).
  * Review and establish critical NAIs and target areas of interest (TAIs).
  2-34. The working group meeting is a critical event. Staffs must integrate it effectively into the unit battle
  rhythm to ensure the collection effort provides focus to operations rather than disrupting them. Preparation
  and focus are essential to a successful working group. All representatives, at a minimum, must come to the
  meeting prepared to discuss available assets, capabilities, limitations, and requirements related to their
  functions. Planning the working group’s battle rhythm is paramount to conducting effective information
  collection operations. Staffs schedule the working group cycle to complement the higher headquarters’
  battle rhythm and its subsequent requirements and timelines.
  2-35. The G-3 (S-3) (or representative) comes prepared to provide the following:
  * The current friendly situation.
  * Current CCIRs.
  * The availability of collection assets.
  * Requirements from higher headquarters (including recent fragmentary orders or taskings).
  * Changes to the commander’s intent.
  * Changes to the task organization.
  * Planned operations.

  * The current enemy situation.
  * The current information collection priorities and strategies.
  * Current requirements planning tools.
  * The situational template tailored to the time discussed.
  * Support from resources the G-2 (S-2) must request from higher headquarters.
  * Weather and effects of weather on intelligence collection, reconnaissance, and surveillance.
