About

ATP 4-12, Army Container Operations, is the Army's doctrine for container management during operations. The doctrine discussed in this manual is nested with ADP 4-0 and FM 4-0. ATP 4-12 describes the techniques for conducting container management. Container management supports operations and ensures that unit equipment and supplies are delivered in a timely and secure manner to the intended destination. Proper container management improves commanders' responsiveness, simplicity, economy, and continuity. A container is an article of transport equipment that meets American National Standards Institute/International Organization for Standardization standards that is designed to facilitate and optimize the carriage of goods by one or more modes of transportation without intermediate handling of the contents (JP 4-01).
