Deliberate planning is a peacetime process that prepares for potential contingencies based on the best available information, using forces and resources earmarked for deliberate planning by the JSCP. The process produces a complete and detailed OPLAN; a CONPLAN-an operational plan in a concept format, with or without a TPFDD; and a functional plan, which involves the conduct of military operations in a peacetime or permissive environment.
