C4I Interoperability

Abstract

The Defense Information Systems Agency’s Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) serves as the only joint element of the Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) Major Range and Test Facility Base (MRTFB) that is operated primarily for Information Technology and National Security Systems (IT/NSS) Test and Evaluation (T&E) support missions. JITC executes the T&E mission in support of Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C4I), and is the DoD’s Sole Interoperability Certifier and the only Non-Service Operational Test Agency. With a focus on T&E for IT, JITC has the unique mission to provide consistent, structured, and effective T&E services that include converged information environment, Cyber, Cloud services, Mobility and NSS. JITC also has the responsibility for ensuring Joint/Coalition interoperability; issuing interoperability certifications; conducting operational evaluations; maintaining a federated IT infrastructure as a MRTFB activity and providing direct interoperability support to the warfighter by ensuring Joint warfighting capabilities are interoperable and support mission needs.

Change Summary Explanation
The decrease of -$0.928 in FY 2018 reflects a transfer of funding to Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs and -$0.327 is for the reduction costs by employing automation technologies to include cloud services to conduct testing and data analysis in the operational environment. The increase of +$3.048 in FY 2020 will provide additional infrastructure, network bandwidth and instrumentation to support development and testing of enterprise systems and Cyber capabilities in a replicated DODIN environment (+$2.748). This increase is offset by a reduction required to offset civilian personnel requirements for departmental priorities and a transfer of 2 FTEs to the DISA Working Capital Fund in support of the Fourth Estate IT Optimization.
