Information collection may be more rapid in a movement to contact than in a zone reconnaissance because the emphasis is on making contact with the enemy. However, increasing the speed of the information collection effort may result in increased risk. If the mission requires it, the corps or division commander can task subordinate BCTs and CABs or the cavalry squadrons in those subordinate BCTs to further develop the situation during actions on contact. (See FM 3-90-1 for a discussion of actions on contact.)
