A questionnaire with 133 questions was used to complete the research. Accordingly, out of 133 factors that were identified and consolidated for formulating logistics strategies of AJA joint operations, 33 factors of weakness, 22 factors of strength, 21 factors of opportunity and 57 factors of threat were identified in the form of 9 components of internal and external environment. Finally, the strategies were developed using the SWOT technique and their prioritization was determined using the Tapsis method.

This research is of applied development type and its method is case-context. The statistical sample size of the research is 74 people. The method of collecting field and library information is that by in-depth analysis of theoretical foundations, the factors affecting the implementation of joint operations are counted and then in the form of a questionnaire using quantitative and qualitative analysis mixed to standardize and localize these factors in the operation environment. Joint Army action has been taken. Based on the research results and using IFE and EFE tools, 103 factors (33 strengths, 20 weaknesses, 29 opportunities and 21 threats) to carry out joint operations in 6 components have been identified and measured, and finally strategies have been developed by SWOT method.
