MDMP begins on receiving orders by immediately initiating a warning order to subordinate assets. The first stage of JOPP, however, integrates higher strategic national and campaign-level priorities into assessment and planning into JIPOE before the similar mission analysis step at which the MDMP alerts subordinate HQ of impending action. Aside from specific terminological and procedural intricacies that exceed the space of this description, for example Centers of Gravity in JOPP compared to MDMP 'decisive points,' or the number of steps and order products within COA development under each model, the major material difference occurs at the initiation level, where JOPP incorporates more senior command procedures before receipt or anticipation of impending orders begins Mission Analysis under MDMP. Both procedures connect to command, government and private authorities and stakeholders outside direct deployment of assets in the AOR. JOPP however, has a wider strategic purview at the national and international campaign design and strategic concept levels...

27), whereas those levels of art and design are usually already embedded in OPLAN and OPORD mission, purpose, endstate and effects at the initiation stage under MDMP, upon which the multi-stage, adaptive and structured step iteration of OE and mission analysis begins from CCDR to staff and back up until final COAs have been assessed, evaluated and forces activated. "While components of a joint force assist joint force commanders in developing a campaign plan," ultimately, JOPP is more campaign-focused whereas "Army forces do not develop independent campaign plans...Army forces develop supporting plans (operation plans and orders) nested with the joint force commander's campaign plan" (FM 5-0, 2011, C1 2-11).
