What is the EBO concept? • The EBO concept focuses on a desired Endstate, in order to determine how to achieve it more effectively and efficiently. It balances the Ends(desired campaign effects), the Wayswhich can contribute to the successful outcome of desired effects, and the Means(the use of lethal, non-lethal and ground/air/maritime manoeuvre capabilities, and non-military organizations) of achieving the desired effects. • D/JDCC/7/2/12 dated 30 Apr 04, The UK Military View of Effects: Definitions and Relationships..
