c. Integration. Land forces create effects through the integration of lethal and non-
lethal capabilities. Effective integration relies on the cooperation and interoperability of
the land force, multinational, host-nation, inter-governmental, non-governmental and
inter-agency partners, as well as of tactical combined arms formations and units.
2-03. Integrated action applies at all levels, but there is an important delineation in
responsibilities for its orchestration and execution.
a. Corps and divisions. It is only at the higher tactical level (usually the corps or division)
that integrated action is fully orchestrated, aligning planning and execution with
combined, joint, inter-agency, intra-governmental or multinational (CJIIM)20 elements.
b. Brigades and battlegroups. At the tactical level brigades and battlegroups plan
and execute their contributions to integrated action. They routinely integrate their
capabilities and activities to deliver single tactical actions as part of a longer-term
higher tactical or operational-level plan.
2-04. Brigades and battlegroups can consider all of the elements of integrated action but may
not have command of the forces that deliver it. However, these non-lethal capabilities
can still be requested, and a brigade or battlegroup may be required to facilitate these
activities on behalf of their superior headquarters.
