“…In study [10], problematic issues of the concept of military potential are considered for assessing the capabilities of units. The analysis of models for assessing the capabilities of the armed forces of different countries was carried out, it was proved that they should be flexible and more integrated, and the process of strategic defense planning should be properly adapted to the conditions of the development of the armed forces.…”

The capability assessment process plays a key role in ensuring the effectiveness and readiness of the armed forces to meet national defense objectives. The conditions for the development of the Armed Forces (AF) of Ukraine currently require improvement of the defense planning system, which would allow for effective adaptation to changes in the geopolitical environment. This will improve the efficiency and readiness of the armed forces for modern challenges. As a result, there is a need to objectively compare the level of capabilities acquired by scientific units with the capabilities established in the Unified list (Catalog) of capabilities of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and other components of the defense forces. The object of the study is the process of assessing the capabilities of scientific divisions of scientific institutions. The task that was solved is the objectivity of assessment and development of the capabilities of scientific units. Since the capabilities of scientific units are multi-criteria, it is advisable to combine their requirements into functional modules. For each carrier of capabilities, a set of modules is determined by functional directions in accordance with the assigned tasks. The method of assessing the capabilities of scientific units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has been improved, quantitative assessments of deficiencies in the capabilities of scientific units and recommendations for their elimination have been obtained in accordance with the DOTMLPFI (Doctrine, Organization, Training, Material, Leadership, Personal, Facilities, and Interoperability) methodology. Based on the results of the evaluation, 30 recommendations were formed when defining 10 scenarios. The scope of application of the method is the implementation of scientific and scientific-technical activities, capacity building of scientific divisions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The method is the basis for the creation of an automated capability assessment system – an element of the automated system of military management bodies

“…Article [30] covers the experience and problems of defense planning in European post-communist defense institutions to clarify causal relationships and make appropriate decisions. The problems raised and the negative experience of decentralization in making financial decisions when planning the development of capabilities of troops (forces) are also typical of Ukraine.…”

The study results have made it possible to devise a methodology for the formation and adjustment of the Defense Forces Capabilities Catalog using cluster analysis and the developed tree-like system of basic indicators characterizing groups and subgroups (clusters). That enables stakeholders to form and adjust the Defense Force Capabilities Catalog with the proper quality, according to the uniform developed algorithm and defined identifiers (features). The methodology is intended for use by members of the Inter-Departmental Working Group on Defense Review, as well as working groups in the course of a separate review or capacity assessment. The Defense Force Capabilities Catalog was deconstructed into five levels of hierarchy, each of which contains interdependent typical tasks, organizational structures, and means (systems, complexes). The procedure is to analyze and clearly cluster individual capabilities of the defense forces according to certain features (requirements, characteristics) to group them and include them in the relevant groups, subgroups, and functional capabilities groups. A system of the indicators for the formation and adjustment of the Defense Forces Capabilities Catalog has been proposed, as well as a conformity criterion based on the generalized indicator, which defines the level of formation (adjustment) of the Defense Forces Capabilities Catalog. Seven steps of the procedure have been defined: from identifying individual capabilities based on their description (step 1) to verifying the acceptability of the results obtained (step 7) using the evaluation criterion and specially designed tables. The methodology was tested during a passive experiment in 2020 on the analysis of the current Defense Forces Capabilities Catalog, which made it possible to identify a series of significant shortcomings in its structure and content.
