| An after-action report (AAR) should be developed upon conclusion of the exercise. The purpose of an AAR is to provide feedback to participants on their performance during the exercise. The AAR summarizes exercise events and analyzes performance of the tasks identified as important during the planning process. It also evaluates achievement of the selected exercise objectives and demonstration of the overall capabilities. After the AAR is complete, the last step is to develop an improvement plan. Its purpose is to convert lessons learned from the exercise into concrete, measurable steps that result in improved response capabilities. |
