scope:

In order to provide a doctrinal framework for the conduct of theatre-level logistics, multinational joint theatre logistics addresses the requirements for and the organization and functions of logistic support across the spectrum of current and potential NATO operations. The Bi-SC⁴ Conceptual Framework for Alliance Operations provides the basis for this approach. However, NATO concepts recognize that there is no fixed template for C2, which may vary from operation to operation depending on type, scale, complexity and location. Each concept therefore has the flexibility to provide for a number of courses of action, against which an operation-specific support option recommendation may be made to adopt the most appropriate C2 arrangement in the context of the mission.
