Assist and Assess Team
The Assist and Assess Team partners with fleet commanders, their Maritime Operations Center (MOC) staffs and other Navy commands/organizations to enhance the Navy’s maritime command, control, and readiness at the Operational Level of War (OLW).
Our Objective
This is accomplished through a variety of methods: through tailored operational-level assistance and education to Fleet staffs at the MOC sites, by helping to harvest and share best practices, and to identify trouble areas and tackle challenges to find solutions, including fusing doctrine and practices. Additionally, we provide on-site support to Fleet Commanders and their staffs during major exercises. This support is provided in conjunction with Fleet Forces Command personnel as members of the U.S. Navy MOC Training Team.
