MCTP SCP Business Rules: SCP 101 – Getting Started General Reminders to Set the Conditions Updated Visio stencils posted NLT IPE for the first exercise of the next FY (o/a 1 Mar) Site survey (SS) and room allocation is initial activity for building SCP (normally conducted prior to the IPE).

Avoid building rooms until after the site survey and director of operations approves room allocation Develop building layout slide for director of operations approval during the IPE and FPE, as necessary.

Presented as part of the IPE and FPE out briefs Site lead POCs or designated representative thru SCP Lead Coordinator constructs Visio templates based on SS results and provides to the other OGs or teams going to the same location following the IPE.

Recommended products (See Actions during Site Survey for more details):

Visio shell with all rooms to build reflecting measurements Current stencil to ensure SCP POC is using correct version Equipment count spreadsheet with tabs labeled for each room to count (Be sure to add additional sheets between the “first room” and “last room” tabs in the workbook that has formulas already entered on the “roll-up” tab)

Building layout slide showing the current approved room allocation SCP Lead Coordinator (S-37) provides SCP Plan-to-Plan (schedule for product due dates) and in what format site leads should provide files Exercise lead POC and SCP Lead Coordinator are only individuals authorized to adjust SCP CDRL timeline with the COR and CIO

UNCLASSIFIED 11

MCTP SCP Business Rules: SCP 102 – Building the SCP (1 of 3) General SCP Development Guidelines Use the Visio room templates the site lead provides post-Site Survey. Do not use old files / rooms may not be the correct size, scale or correct stencil version Visio Drawing Scale. Ensure to select Architectural 1/8” = 1’ 0” Visio Drawing Scale in the Page Setup for each sheet. Right-click on the sheet tab Use the current stencil the SCP lead provides in the WFX TEAMS page under SCP link or at the IPE Don't copy and paste old icons from previous room builds. Drag and drop icons from the current stencil.

Always start from the fresh template the site lead provides Minimize the mixture of classified and unclassified systems / icons in order to help with the reduction of cable separation challenges. When possible, consolidate unclassified systems to ends of tables or on a separate group of tables

Don't overlap icons so they are difficult to read. Align and space for ease in reading icon Update room templates / shells with fixed or site-provided equipment discovered during the site survey Orient icons on drawings in the same orientation as the room on the slide. Except you may orient projectors, plasmas, VTCs, and AV cameras as they are used in the room (Refer to SCP Drawing Guidelines) Shade all fixed equipment (tables, projectors, plasmas, etc.) medium gray (R: 191, G: 191, B: 191) and do not count on the spreadsheet Use the current spreadsheet the site lead provides with room template for equipment counts If you need a non-standard low density piece of equipment, coordinate with responsible agency (e.g.

Commo) before submitting your builds (i.e. Spider VOIP for a conference room, not the CIC; desktop VTC, other than dedicated location; etc.)

Title each Visio page in a large, readable font labeling the exercise, site location, training unit, building number, room number, room purpose, and organization responsible for room build (e.g., First Line: WFX ##-#, SITE, UNIT; Second Line: Bldg ###, Rm ###, Room Purpose (OG-@)

MCTP SCP Business Rules: SCP 102 – Building the SCP (2 of 3)

(use measurements from site survey)

2. Show collapsed folding wall when room is open

3. Orient system icons upright on the page, even if this does not reflect how you place the equipment on the table

4. Align chairs and place them half-way under the table

5. Place folding wall symbol over solid room wall

6. Locate copier outside room build to show installed in hallway

7. For position labels, use Arial bold 6 or 8-pt font

8. Add MCTP-provided VTC to drawing not using fixed site-provided VTC

9. Use the appropriate source provided plasma (Small <46”; Large >46”)

SCP Development: Symbol Placement Guidance Depict only systems we bring from Ft Leavenworth and systems, furniture or equipment we coordinate with the site to provide during the exercise. Do not show unit tactical systems in the SCP Drag and drop equipment icons directly from the MCTP stencil – do not attempt to resize, recolor, edit, or otherwise manipulate the icons

1. Change length to the partition

Grouping and placement of mixed systems

Align center and spacing to not overlap symbols

Separate NIPR drops when space is limited; must maintain 18” separation between NIPR and classified systems

Not everyone needs their own drop

Color shading for fixed equipment

Fixed equipment at a site can not be moved by the facility team

Change color to medium gray (R: 191, G: 191, B: 191)

Contrast better with all symbols

Symbol Orientation

Orient symbols the same direction as the room on the slide

Can point projectors, AV cameras, and VTCs in direction of use (rotate shape as needed)
