About

TO MARINE CORPS DESIGN METHODOLOGY The Marine Corps design methodology helps planners determine the correct set of problems, and a framework for solving them. In this manner, design not only occurs throughout problem framing but throughout all of planning and execution. The design methodology consists of four distinct actions— 1. Describe the current and desired states of the operational environment. 2. Define the problem set. 3. Produce the operational approach. 4. Reframe throughout planning and execution. Within the Marine Corps, design can play a meaningful role in virtually every planning evolution, regardless of scope or complexity. Additionally, the Marine Corps views design beginning during problem framing that further emphasizes the need for design in every instance where planning occurs, even though the amount of design effort will be different for each situation.
