Do any current/former BN S1 OICs/NCOICs have an example of a Deployment SOP or tips for building one?

I am currently building a deployment SOP for the S1 section for my eMIB for a future exercise. I am a 35D and only have a few months of experience in the S1 OIC role (formerly a PL and XO). I have the MTOE and UMR for reference, and understand the basics, but am looking for the more specific S1 functions and how the section will fall into the rest of BN. I have never deployed.

1LT David Welsh we wrote a readiness SOP in 4th Sustainment Brigade but it was based off DSCA and Fort Carson policy. That was in 2016....I'm sure someone already built the better mouse trap and the official binder is sticking out of the pile in a closet like the Statue of Liberty at the end of Planet of the Apes.
Here is a Combined Arms Center product on the topic. Good place to start is CARL, The CASCOM one stop, CAC. https://usacac.army.mil/sites/default/files/publications/15-01_CDD_V2.pdf

Thank you sir! Much appreciated.
Its been over 2 years since was on it and monitored it but the Army G-1 has a website that puts out all the current messages - as well as has blog action that lists out items such as SOPs that others have done. You should have access to it. Spend some time going through it and seeing if you can find some examples of what you want - or ask the question and see if some can provide you with their unit examples. Worth a try LT Welsh - especially in seeing what others have done already.
