It also provides information on the mission and capabilities of a unit as well as the unit's current status. A general TOE is applicable to a type of unit (for instance, Infantry ) rather than a specific unit (the 3rd Infantry Division ). In this way, all units of the same branch (such as Infantry) follow the same structural guidelines. Each TOE has a unique number that identifies it. When changes are needed, a table is not modified, instead, a new table is drafted from scratch. In the U.S. Army , there are four basic types of TOEs:

  • The Base Table of Organization and Equipment (BTOE)

  • ---An organizational design document based on current doctrine and available equipment. It shows the basics of a unit's structure and their wartime requirements (both for personnel and equipment).

  • The Objective table of organization and equipment (OTOE)

  • ---An updated form of the BTOE, usually formed within the last year. It is a fully modern document and is up to date with current policies and initiatives.

  • A Modification table of organization and equipment (MTOE)

  • ---A document that modifies a Basic TOE (BTOE) in regard to a specific unit. Used when a unit's needs are substantially different from the BTOE.

  • A Table of distribution and allowances (TDA)

  • ---A type of temporary TOE that is aplicable to a specific mission. Used in an instance when there is no applicable TOE.
