The 8 Essential Functions CJ-7 Training and Exercises (TREX)
Content The 8 EF’s (know what are they and why were they developed) 2. Alignment EF’s with ASI/ANSF (know it is not an isolated CF-system) 3. Process Maps (know what they look like)
Background • Security Force Assistance (SFA) matured from 5 Functional Pillars (FPs) to 8 Essential Functions (EFs); • 5 Pillars too tactically focused (fight the war) • 8 Essential Functions necessary to (sustain the ANSF) • EFs integrate advisors @ ministerial, institutional, & fielded force levels • Achieve ASI/ANSF sustainability • Focus GIRoA/CF problem-solving • Maintain IC support • Enable ASI/ANSF to fight insurgency • Enable withdrawal of CF
CONCEPT OF OPS • The 8 EFs are Afghan system focus areas. These functions are interdependentand, taken as a whole, contribute to Afghan sustainability. They span across all levels of conflict, from the tactical to the strategic. • Each Essential Function consists of Afghan systems, processes, and organizations necessary to implement the function. These systems, processes, and organizations have friction points, which prevent efficient flow of information and resources. • Advisors focus on influencing these processes; however advisors should not directly impact the process. Afghan sustainability must evolve in a way that allows for enduring progress.

The 8 Essential Functions The 8 Essential Functions provide the framework and desired outcomes in target areas to achieve Afghan sustainability. Each EF contains a series of Afghan processes with tactical, operational, and strategic characteristics, all of which may have interactions across other EFs. This multi-echelon level of advising and cross-functional coordination allows analysis of Afghan process issues through multiple lenses. NATO/ISAF UNCLASSIFIED

3. Process Maps • Maybe western visualization of Afghan processes but: • Are being made by former advisors ICCW Afghan counterparts • Visualize extensive advisor efforts • Are the best tool available to investigate and solve problems • Are the means to minimize patronage/regional influence on Afghan systems • Are essential for nation building • Are essential to achieve sustaining ANSF ANNEX B in Guide!
