by OOJ SV, novica MO

Posted on Februar 6, 2019




Od ponedeljka, 4., do ДЌetrtka, 7. februarja, se pripadniki Poveljstva sil SV, v VojaЕЎnici barona Andreja ДЊehovina v Postojni usposabljajo za proces naДЌrtovanja in vodenja bojnih delovanj na operativni ravni. Usposabljanje so strnili v obliki vaje poveljstva z nazivom Panter 19. To je poveljniЕЎka vaja, na kateri se poveljstvo operativne ravni uri v postopkih operativnega naДЌrtovanja in ter izvedbe operacije ZavezniЕЎtva v kompleksnem varnostnem okolju.

Usposabljanje temelji na tako imenovanem Occassus scenariju, ki predvideva napad sovraЕѕne drЕѕave na eno od ДЌlanic zavezniЕЎtva in odzive ZavezniЕЎtva skladno s 4. in 5. ДЌlenom severnoatlantske pogodbe. V izvedbo usposabljanja je po pogodbi vkljuДЌena druЕѕba DRDM d.o.o., ki ima bogate izkuЕЎnje pri usposabljanju in urjenju razliДЌnih NATO poveljstev operativne ravni ter izvedbi raДЌunalniЕЎko podprtih ЕЎtabnih vaj.

Prvi teden urjenja v februarju je namenjen teoretiДЌnim predavanjem in praktiДЌnim delavnicam (faza "Academics"). Poleg Poveljstva sil na vaji sodelujejo tudi posamezniki iz drugih poveljstev in enot sil SV, teoretiДЌnih sklopov se udeleЕѕujejo tudi sluЕЎatelji viЕЎje ЕЎtabnega teДЌaja na PoveljniЕЎko ЕЎtabni ЕЎoli. Dejavnosti se bodo nadaljevale marca z naДЌrtovanjem operacij v zdruЕѕeni operativni planski skupini (JOPG) in izdelavo naДЌrta operacije (OPPLAN). Aprilu sledi usposabljanje iz ЕЎtabnih postopkov in sinhronizacija delovanja. Vse skupaj se bo zakljuДЌilo z 14-dnevno praktiДЌno vajo Panter.

Vaja je namenoma metodoloЕЎko organizirana tako, da bo prispevala zlasti k individualni usposobljenosti pripadnikov ЕЎtaba PSSV. Z izvedbo usposabljanja in vaje Panter 19 bo PSSV vzpostavilo pogoje za doseganje zaДЌetnih operativnih zmogljivosti PSSV v letu 2019. Do maja 2019 bodo tako vzpostavljeni pogoji za zaДЌetek kolektivnega usposabljanja v sinhronizaciji z bojiЕЎДЌnimi sistemi in funkcijami. В»Znotraj poveljstva / ЕЎtaba bomo sposobni vodenja in sinhroniziranja procesov zdruЕѕenega operativnega naДЌrtovanja, ciljenja, obveЕЎДЌevalnega cikla in strateЕЎkega komuniciranja za naДЌrtovanje in vodenje delovanj,В« je o usposabljanju oziroma vaji povedal poveljnik sil brigadir Miha Е kerbinc

Posted on May 24, 2017




Team Dr DM Ltd. had a pleasure to organize a COMPUTER ASSISTED EXERCISE for the students of GEA College in Ljubljana again, from 19. to 20. May 2017.

Main topic was В»Corporate management in an emergency situationВ«. Students of bussiness management and corporate security management formed a Training Audience that achieved all training objectives with great success.

Primary training objectives were:

  • Training of students for decision making process in crisis situation,
  • Establish and maintain exercise environment that stimulate team interactions and constructive relations between its members,
  • Creation of an action plan with appropiate measures in order to neutralize negative consequences of a crisis and provide business continuity.

On Friday 19 May 2017, student have followed preparatory presentations on Computer Simulation modeling and CAX methodology.

During Saturday morning, training conditions put them in the role of Company management group, which had to solve severe crisis in production, caused by natural and man-made disasters. Proper incidents’analysis and action plan led them to the final decisions for mitigation of consequences. Technological improvements of the exercise Information Management System proved it’s quality with timely support to the overall decision making process.

Posted on March 14, 2017






Dr. DuЕЎan MarinДЌiДЌ had a pleasure to interact with the international group of students on 13th March 2017 on Faculty for Social Sciences in Ljubljana. Main topic was В» Computer Simulation Modeling of Crisis ManagementВ«.

Application of simulation models on CAX is representing educational method, which is dynamically introducing operational conditions of real systems in synthetic environment. Dynamic training system is consisting of digital terrain and equipment and allowing to the exercise participants to gain new knowledge, skills and behavior. Each CAX is also a research method, because it is fulfilling a few conditions for that, for example:

  • Novelty of the problem,
  • Importance and applicability of solutions for the practice,
  • Level of interest in problem solving processes,
  • Available equipment and other research conditions,
  • Actuality of research results,
  • Possibility to find solution for the decision making problems by research.

Through the process of CAX we are undoubtedly optimizing current staff procedures and decision making processes in synchronization with all other stakeholders in the area of responsibility.

In order to properly apply above mentioned training methodology, it is of utmost importance to understand the potential customer needs. Live demonstration of CAX capabilities would create a common understanding, mutual acceptance and harmonization of all desired activities. Ultimate goal is to provide training conditions for audience in order to achieve training objectives. That will prepare them for the real world crisis decision making process on strategic, operational or tactical level.






Future Training & Exercise Environment

by Dr. DuЕЎan MarinДЌiДЌ and Andreja MarinДЌiДЌ

Posted on October 25, 2016



For the past six months our Company Dr DM Ltd, has provided Modelling and Simualtion Consultancy work with its effort to enhance and reinforce training and exercise environmente for Allied Nations, beyond 2020. Fiscal constraints and increasing expectations for readiness and operational effectiveness have led to a stronger interest in the use of simulation to support military training. In the past several decades, M&S has evolved from an emerging science to a sufficiently mature discipline to effectively and efficiently support several areas of training. However, while some Nations rely heavily on M&S to help achieve readiness and operational effectiveness, within NATO the development and use of M&S-based solutions in general has remained more modest.

For effective modeling, it is necessary to understand contents of the problem, and simultaneously mathematical language or way in which problem has been described and modeled.

Modeling is allowing transition from real world to virtual one (artificial, synthetic), where attributes of landscape components, processes and events have been transferred. We could represent their structure (static models) and functions (dynamic models) with the models, and we can forecast future developments or certain chain of events, which is particular value of simulation models.

Majority of simulation descriptions are proposing that simulation models:
  • have been used for modeling of a systems that are too complex for modeling with the ordinary analytical models,
  • consists of logical or mathematical operations on variables,
  • are capable to represent a lot of variables and operations,
  • are holistically oriented toward modeling of all aspects of the whole system,
  • are focused on presentation of processes,
  • are focused on research and experimentation.

The differentiation of a simulation models from the other models is, what we are doing with the model and not which type of the model we have. In the case of simulation we want to understand the behavior of the model and ways of manipulation with it. Value and purpose of the simulation is measured by level of data application from the model.

Application of future Simulation systems is fisible for Crisis Response Operations, Emergency Management and Corporate Security Training & Exercises.

Obvladovanje kompleksnih delovnih nalog in procesov v podjetjih zahteva od zaposlenih veliko znanja, ki ga lahko pridobijo na različne načine. Na GEA College – Fakulteti za podjetništvo prisegamo na praktično znanje, ki je v kombinaciji z dobro teoretično podlago zmagovalna kombinacija in posamezniku omogoča odličnost pri izvajanju aktivnosti v službi ali pa prednosti pri iskanju prvih priložnosti na trgu dela. Enakega načela se držimo pri izvajanju podiplomskega študijskega programa Management korporativne varnosti, na katerem so študenti pod vodstvom dr. Dušana Marinčiča imeli priložnost preskušanja svojega znanja na realnih primerih, v varnem okolju računalniške simulacije kriznega dogodka.

Dr. DuЕЎan MarinДЌiДЌ je po izobrazbi doktor politologije, lastnik in ustanovitelj podjetja Dr DM Ltd, ki svojim naroДЌnikom ponuja poleg ostalih storitev analize in ocene tveganj ob vstopu na nove geografske trge ter skupno strateЕЎko operativno naДЌrtovanje, ki naroДЌnikom ponuja celovite reЕЎitve upravljanja s tveganji. Ena od pomembnih storitev podjetja dr DM Ltd so tudi raДЌunalniЕЎko podprte simulacije CAX (Computer Assisted Excercise), s pomoДЌjo katerih usposabljajo kandidate na podroДЌju upravljanja tveganj in s pomoДЌjo katerega uporabniki v varnem okolju preskuЕЎajo svoje teoretiДЌno znanje.

RAДЊUNALNIЕ KO PODPRTA VAJA KOT POMEMBEN DEL PROCESA UPRAVLJANJA NEPREKINJENEGA POSLOVANJA

by Andreja MarinДЌiДЌ, mag.

Posted on February 24, 2016



RaДЌunalniЕЎko podprta vaja (RPV) zagotavlja kvalitetno individualno in kolektivno usposabljanje v osnovnih veЕЎДЌinah odloДЌanja in poveljevanja na razliДЌnih ravneh v vsaki organizaciji. Na vajah se simulacijski model in informacijska tehnologija uporablja za spodbujanje in nadzor procesov presojanja razmer in odloДЌanja znotraj organizacije. Uporaba simulacijskega modela na raДЌunalniЕЎko podprti vaji je nepogreЕЎljiva uДЌna metoda, ki dinamiДЌno predstavlja operativne pogoje ter druЕѕbene procese realnega sistema v sintetiДЌnem okolju. V dinamiДЌnem sistemu usposabljanja je uporabljeno digitalizirano obmoДЌje in oprema, ki omogoДЌa udeleЕѕencem vaje pridobivanje novih znanj in veЕЎДЌin ter vedenja. Vsaka RPV predstavlja istoДЌasno tudi raziskovalno metodo kajti za pripravo izpolnjuje nekaj kriterijev, ki ji to omogoДЌajo: novost problema, pomembnost in uporabnost reЕЎitve problema za prakso, stopnja zainteresiranosti za reЕЎitev problema, razpoloЕѕljiva oprema in drugi pogoji, ki so potrebni za raziskovanje, aktualnost rezultatov raziskav in moЕѕnosti za reЕЎitev problema s pomoДЌjo raziskovanja.

RPV se je v zadnjih desetletjih uporabljala predvsem za pripravo nacionalnega in mednarodnega varnostnega okolja za elemente strateЕЎke, operativne in taktiДЌne ravni odloДЌanja, z namenom pravoДЌasnega in primernega odgovora na varnostne odklone v kompleksnem okolju. Metodologija RPV postaja vedno bolj nepogreЕЎljiva metoda testiranja tudi znotraj korporativnega okolja, skozi proces neprekinjenega poslovanja. RazliДЌni tipi organizacij se vedno bolj zavedajo pomena zunanjih in notranjih negativnih vplivov okolja, ki lahko resno ogrozijo njeno poslovanje, ugled, ali celo obstoj. Ker je moЕѕnih incidentov ДЌedalje veДЌ, se je za krepitev odpornosti pred takimi dogodki, zagotavljanje nemotene izvedbe poslovnih procesov, za ДЌimprejЕЎnje okrevanje po izpadu ter pravilno ukrepanje ob samem dogodku, potrebno sistematiДЌno in celostno lotiti zagotavljanja neprekinjenega poslovanja. Le tako lahko organizacija zmanjЕЎa in nadzoruje notranja ter zunanja tveganja vse bolj kompleksnega okolja. Glavni in kljuДЌni namen neprekinjenega poslovanja je po novem ISO 22301: В»sposobnost organizacije, da po incidentu nadaljuje z dobavo proizvodov in/ali storitev na sprejemljivi vnaprej doloДЌeni naДЌin В« oziroma В» Upravljanje neprekinjenega poslovanja (BCM) je definiran kot holistiДЌen pristop, ki identificira potencialne groЕѕnje organizacije ter njihov vpliv na vse poslovne procese. Hkrati proces upravljanja neprekinjenega poslovanja predstavlja osnovni okvir za vzpostavitev sistema poslovne В»odpornostiВ« na vsa tovrstna tveganja, ki vplivajo na ugled, kljuДЌne nosilce organizacije, dodano vrednost in ostale pomembne elemente uspeЕЎnega in stabilnega poslovnega razvoja organizacije (ISO 22301:2012).

ANALIZA VARNOSTNE SITUACIJE IN IZVEDBA UKREPOV ZA OBVLADOVANJE TVEGANJ PRI Е IRITVI NA NOVO TRЕЅIЕ ДЊE (IRAN)

by Andreja MarinДЌiДЌ, mag.

Posted on February 23, 2016



SrednjeroДЌni strateЕЎki naДЌrt naЕЎega farmacevtskega podjetja predvideva v letu 2015/2016 ЕЎirjenje del proizvodnje tudi na BliЕѕnji Vzhod, s ciljno usmerjenost v Iran. Pred sprejetjem konДЌne odloДЌitve strateЕЎkega managementa, je potrebno opraviti podrobno analizo poslovnega okolja regije BliЕѕnjega Vzhoda ter drЕѕave Irana, s poudarkom na kljuДЌnih varnostnih tveganjih (geo-politiДЌno stanje) in groЕѕenj vezanih na Iran.

Poleg tega bo oddelek za korporativno varnost opravil ЕЎe multivarintno analizo Irana, kjer bomo s pomoДЌjo veДЌ kot 40 uporabljenih spremeljivk, 5 druЕѕbenih skupin (geografska, demografska, socialna, ekonomska in politiДЌna skupina) natanДЌno doloДЌili, kam je najbolje seliti proizvodnjo (katera provinca), za uspeЕЎno poslovanje. Skozi omenjeno analizo bomo pod vsako druЕѕbeno skupino opredelili tudi varnostne odklone in posebnosti, ki so pomembna za naЕЎe poslovanje v poslovnem okolju Irana (npr. pridobivanje outsourcinga, kultura poslovanja, delovne navade, ДЌas delovanja proizvodnje, konkureДЌno okolje, pravne podlage....).

Z vsemi pridobljenimi podatki analiz ter informacij iz odprtih virov (obveЕЎДЌevalna dejavnost) bomo na koncu opredelili naДЌrt aktivnosti naЕЎega oddelka za korporativno varnost, za uspeЕЎno izvedbo procesa zagotavljanja delovanja korporativne varnosti v primeru, da se seli del proizvodnje v Iran. V naДЌrtu bomo za vsako kljuДЌno tveganje opredelili moЕѕne reЕЎitve obvladovanja tveganj in naДЌrtovanja organizacije dela ter ukrepov korporativne varnosti.

Torej v nadaljevanju bomo najprej spoznali in opredelili geo-politiДЌno stanje v regiji BliЕѕnjega Vzhoda (bliЕѕnja okolica Irana), sledi analiza dinamiДЌnega druЕѕbenega okolja Irana (multivariantna analiza in kvalitativen opis pomembnejЕЎih druЕѕbenih dimenzij) ter naДЌrt obladovanja tveganj za uspeЕЎno selitev in poslovanje na trЕѕiЕЎДЌu Irana.

Computer Assisted Exercise (CAX) as Capability Enhancement Methodology

by DuЕЎan MarinДЌiДЌ Phd.

Posted on November 24, 2015



The Computer Assisted Exercise (CAX) is training methodology that is simulating a societal processes in synthetic environment. CAX has been used in the last two decades for preparations of National and International security elements on strategic, operational and tactical level in order to prepare timely and appropriate repsonse to security deviations in the crisis areas. By shaping the common understanding of societal needs of the affected countries, it has been much easier after that to send apropriate international capabilities for societal rebuilding. Main motive for this research was to find out if the same methodology could be used for the management of corporative security, which is rensponsible for efficient and prompt reactions on external and internal threats to corporations' processes.

Main purpose is to describe opportunity for corporations to train and understand own internal security interactions and external societal dynamics, in order to provide appropriate management of corporate security and to maintain continuity of corporate governance. It is a corporation’s function that oversees and manages the close coordination of all functions within the company that are concerned with security, continuity and safety. Globalization is pushing companies to more risky places where is important to understand an interaction between societal dimensions and potential risks in order to maximize the realization of opportunities.

The CAX methodology was explained by phases as follows: planning and preparation, scenario development, execution and analysis. Spain was analyzed as a case study of the Local Capability for sustainable development in 2012, where the findings are representing prerequisites for the final analytical framework of decision making process.

Research has been confirming a value of CAX, which ensures to the Corporate Security Management a suitable and timely reaction to security deviations, and creates conditions for effective corporate governance and continuity of corporate security functions.

EXONAUTв„ў BUSINESS CONTINUITY MANAGER

by 4C-STRATEGIES

Posted on November 18, 2015



Exonautв„ў Business Continuity Manager (BCM) is an automated platform designed to guide organisations through the entire BCM lifecycle. This enterprise-wide tool is designed to ensure compliance with relevant Business Continuity standards and industry best practice.

Exonautв„ў BCM provides organisations with a common methodology to deliver structure, cohesion and consistency to all continuity and recovery planning, testing and audit. The permission-based tool supports the enterprise-wide identification and mapping of critical organisational processes and resources to understand dependencies and any single points of failure. Users are then guided through the process of establishing Maximum Tolerable Period of Disruption (MTPD), Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO). Risk assessments can be created within the tool to determine probability and impact of disruptive events in order to guide prioritisation of continuity solutions.

Plans are subsequently developed in the tool, with the template based on action-oriented task lists to facilitate ease of application during a major disruption. The tool delivers the capability to test and activate plans. Integration with Exonaut™ Observer (OBS) enables users to receive direction and complete assigned tasksduring a test or “live” disruption using their mobile or tablet devices.

SOROTAN will challenge NATO against hybrid threats

by Inci Kucukaksoy, JWC PAO

Posted on March 02, 2015



Developed by Joint Warfare Centre (JWC), NATO’s new training scenario will be launched during the Alliance’s largest exercise this year, TRIDENT JUNCTURE 15 (TRJE 15).

Dubbed “SOROTAN”, the new scenario reflects a very complex threat environment in the fictional “Cerasia” region and looks to challenge NATO forces with a wide range of conventional and unconventional threats, including hybrid warfare.

Unlike the “SKOLKAN” scenario, which presents a complex Article 5 Collective Defence of a NATO Member Nation, SOROTAN provides a setting that enables an out-of-area, non-Article 5 Crisis Response Operation to bring a border war to an end before it expands to the entire region.
