ACE is a small team of staff officers, experienced in operations planning and

to exercise the required level of C2 for specific operations, such as a
short-term NEO or SF mission. The composition of the ACE team is flexible
and dependant upon mission requirements, but it is essential that the ACE team is involved in the planning stages of an operation in order that it is aware of the higher
commander's intent, and the mission objectives and requirements.

The incorporation of human
factors issues into information system design such that data is converted
into information and then into knowledge. It recognises that the
availability of information in a system, or its display at a terminal, does
not ensure that it will be read by the operator or commander who is required
to act on it, or that they will derive the understanding that the sender
intended.
