MOVING INTELLIGENCE
What is a MO?
A MO is the order that makes you move — orders to a base, orders to a house, orders to a mission.
Every Mission Starts With a MO™
The word behind the name
In the military, a MO — short for modus operandi, or more practically, your Method of Operation — is how you get things done. It's your way of working. Your system. Your mission profile.
But for military families, “MO” means something more personal — it's shorthand for the orders that define your life for the next two to four years. Orders to report to Fort Campbell. Orders to PCS to Rota. Orders to move your family across the country — or the ocean — in 45 days.
MovingOrders is where every one of those orders starts to make sense. The housing search. The BAH calculation. The lease that protects you under SCRA. The roommate who was in the same boat. The storage unit while your HHGs are in transit. The voice that answers when you say “Hey MO, find me housing near Pendleton.”
