At1achmcnt .\ FY05 HOMELAND SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM All tabletop exercises (TTXs), drills, functional exercises (FEs), and full-scale exercises (FSEs) will be evaluated and performance based. An After Action Report (AAR) and Improvement Plan will be prepared and submitted to DHS/ODP following every TTX, drill, FE, and FSE. AAR/IPs must be provided to ODP within 60 days following completion of each exercise (see HSEEP Volume II, Appendix A). Currently, these AAR/IPs can be submitted through the ODP Secure Portal. However ODP is working with other agencies to develop a national reporting system. A state or local jurisdiction that conducts an exercise using SHSP, VASI, and LETPP funds must follow the HSEEP doctrine and protocol contained in Volume II. States are encouraged to develop a self-sustaining State Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program which is modeled after the national HSEEP. This may include, for example: hiring dedicated exercise program staff, awareness seminars on HSEEP, attending exercise training courses, and maintaining a system to track the completion and submission of AARs and Improvement Plans from exercises (including costs associated with meeting with local units of government to define procedures).
