About this file
This document is a Department of Defense Force Protection Condition (FPCON) Measures reference guide detailing mandatory security protocols across four escalating threat levels. The file outlines specific defensive and detection measures applicable to DoD installations, facilities, and defense critical infrastructure that support military operations and personnel. The measures are structured hierarchically from FPCON ALPHA (lowest threat level) through FPCON DELTA (highest threat level), with each successive level introducing more stringent access controls, inspection requirements, and operational restrictions. ALPHA-level measures establish baseline programs including visible random antiterrorism measures (RAM), commercial delivery inspections, emergency notification procedures, and personnel threat awareness initiatives. BRAVO measures intensify these efforts by increasing inspection frequency for privately-owned vehicles, expanding RAM activities based on threat assessments, and enhancing protection at off-installation facilities supporting DoD operations. CHARLIE measures implement further restrictions including increased standoff distances, comprehensive vehicle inspections with enhanced detection capabilities, limited facility access points, suspension of trusted traveler programs, and alternate site operations and telework. DELTA measures represent maximum security posture, restricting access to mission-essential personnel only, implementing positive personnel identification procedures, prohibiting non-essential movement on DoD property, and fully activating all contingency defense plans.
The document serves as a standardized reference for DoD installations across all states and jurisdictions to implement proportionate security measures based on current threat assessments. No specific pricing, funding sources, contract terms, or award information is contained within this reference guide, as it functions as a policy and procedural document rather than a procurement instrument. The measures are applicable across all DoD locations and are designed to be implemented by installation commanders and security personnel in coordination with intelligence organizations, federal agencies, and community stakeholders to protect critical assets and infrastructure from hostile activities.
