3-1. Unity of effort and global integration requires coordination among government departments and agencies; nongovernmental organizations and intergovernmental organizations; and partners, allies, and nations in any alliance or coalition. Unity of effort, action, and command enables the synchronization, coordination, and/or integration of the activities of the governmental and nongovernmental entities with military operations to support a strategy. Global integration is the arrangement of cohesive military actions in time, space, and purpose, executed as a whole to address transregional, all-domain, and multi-functional challenges. Geographic, global, and functional combatant commanders are directly responsible to the President and the Secretary of Defense for the implementation of a strategy, U.S. policy, and the execution of assigned missions. The National Security Strategy, National Defense Strategy, and National Military Strategy—shaped to support the implementation of national security policies, and articulated through global, regional, and functional campaign plans—provide strategic direction for combatant commanders. In turn, combatant commanders design, plan, and execute campaign plans in accordance with this guidance as well as the Unified Command Plan, Contingency Planning Guidance, and Joint Strategic Campaign Plan. The Joint Strategic Campaign plan identifies which combatant commander is the coordinating authority for specific subordinate campaign plans. Specifying the coordinating authority facilities synchronization of U.S. operations between combatant commanders; with allies, coalitions, and multinational forces; and with nonmilitary organizations.
