In April 1998, FM 100-14 (now obsolete) introduced to the Army the first doctrinal publication on managing risk. It detailed the application of a step-by-step process that would conserve combat power and resources. In 2006, FM 5-19 (now obsolete) was released. This milestone publication improved and expanded the doctrine to provide clear standards and guidance on how to apply the process for managing risk. The process, then renamed composite risk management, was broadened to encompass all operations and activities, on and off duty. ATP 5-19 retains the holistic approach that focuses on the composite risks from all sources, rather than the traditional practice of separating accidents from tactical hazards and associated risks. With this ATP, the holistic approach is better integrated into the Army's decision-making processes.
