ADRP 5-0 is a new publication that expands on the principles of the operations process found in ADP 5-0. Overall, the doctrine in ADRP 5-0 remains consistent with Field Manual (FM) 5-0, The Operations Process. The most significant change from FM 5-0 is the restructuring of doctrinal information. The principles of the operations process are now found in ADP 5-0 and ADRP 5-0. A new field manual (currently under development) will address the specific tactics and procedures associated with planning, preparing, executing, and assessing operations. In the interim, ATTP 5-0.1, Commander and Staff Officers Guide, contains these details. ADRP 5-0 updates doctrine on the operations process to include incorporating the Army's operational concept of unified land operations found in ADP 3-0 and the principles of mission command found in ADP 6-0.
