The Defence Memo also highlighted that while the services performed adequately when coordinating on deployed operations, there was serious issues with training and domestic operational coordination. This is partially as deployed operations were moved administratively under the Joint Expeditionary Operational Command (JEOC), which had been responsible for the deployment, sustainment and conduct of missions outside of Arcer borders since its inception after the 2nd Great War. However, within Arcerion, the services consistently failed to cooperate or coordinate on procurement, training, or sustainment of joint forces. This extended everywhere from small arms procurement up to and including major training exercises that were supposed to be annually cumulative verifications of major Arcer formations.

The implementation of the Memo's recommendations is ongoing, with the biggest changes occurring within the Arcer Army. The Navy, while slow to adopt the recommendations, made some considerable changes to the Naval Air Service, notably the amount of maritime patrol and Anti-Submarine Warfare aircraft, and began lifespan upgrades earlier than recommended by the manufacturer. From a government and policy perspective, the Confederate Parliament was slow to react initially, however after the deployment and relative success of Arcer formations in the Varshan conflict (Operation Pullman), they saw that despite the victories won by the Army and Air Force, there was room for improvement and some casualties and setbacks during the campaign could have been avoided with a more swift implementation of the 2022 Memo's recommendations.
