What baseline is used for the Command Plan submission?

• A. The latest HQDA Master Force lock point
• B. The latest HQDA Master Force lock point and the latest HQDA approved document
• C. The Integrated Resource Priority List (IRPL)
• D. The Dynamic Army Resource Priority List (DARPL)

Answer: (B)

The baseline used for the Command Plan submission is the latest HQDA Master Force lock point together with the latest HQDA approved document. The Master Force lock point fixes the authorized force structure for planning, locking in the units and capabilities that may be programmed. The HQDA approved document provides the authority and constraints from higher‑level decisions, ensuring the plan aligns with current policy and resource approvals. Using these two up-to-date items keeps the plan consistent with what has been officially approved and prevents basing it on outdated baselines. The Integrated Resource Priority List and the Dynamic Army Resource Priority List are about prioritizing and adjusting resources, but they do not serve as the baseline for the Command Plan submission.
