Global Command and Control System

Abstract

Based on the termination of the Net Enabled Command Capability (NECC) Program and the renewed focus on the existing Global Command and Control System – Joint (GCCS-J), this submission reflects the shift in the GCCS-J program from funding only the GCCS-J Program Management Office (PMO) activities to sustaining a portfolio of Joint command and control (C2) activities within DISA in support of the overall Department. These Joint C2 activities include GCCS-J, Joint Planning and Execution Services (JPES), and the support to the development and sustainment of the Joint C2 architecture. GCCS-J. The GCCS-J suite of mission applications/systems provides critical joint warfighting C2 capabilities by presenting an integrated, near real-time picture of the battle space for planning and execution of joint military and multinational operations. GCCS-J is used by all nine combatant commands (COCOMs) at sites around the world, supporting joint and coalition operations. Additionally, through the continued evolution of the GCCS Family of Systems (FoS), the Services are also utilizing components of the GCCS-J infrastructure to build their Service unique variants thus reducing the number of unique components. Funding will be used to evolve existing capabilities within the GCCS-J operational baselines with the goal of reducing cost to the field through the use of enterprise hosting and increasing data sharing through the availability of common services, while enhancing the existing functionality available to the user today. GCCS-J entered into sustainment with the closeout of Block V in August 2009. JPES. JPES is a set of capabilities that address components of the DoD's Adaptive Planning Roadmap (13 Dec 2005) and Adaptive Planning II (5 Mar 2008). JPES produces enhancements to the Joint Operations Planning and Execution System (JOPES), focused adaptive planning capabilities, and provides a set of core infrastructure services necessary to provide the warfighter an interoperable environment where functionality can be easily added as mission needs dictate. Joint C2 Architecture. The Joint C2 Architecture is a foundational element of the Joint C2 capabilities for the Department, containing a set of net-centric tenets associated with data, functional service and the C2 infrastructure that is based on a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) design pattern. Each year, the DISA architecture team produces a transitional architecture that documents the current state of C2 capabilities and anticipated changes/enhancements either in progress or planned by the C2 community. The yearly updates document the use of enterprise services and standards in the development, integration and implementation of Joint C2 capabilities across the Department. The GCCS-J Overseas Contingency Operations for Integrated Imagery and Intelligence (I3) provides operational enhancements to the existing GCCS-J I3/Common Operating Picture (COP) baseline in direct support of United States Central Command (USCENTCOM) identified requirements. This includes access to additional data sources or tracks, ensures visualization of this intelligence data on the COP, and enhancements to capabilities unique to the USCENTCOM Area of Responsibility (AOR).

Change Summary Explanation
The decrease in FY11 of -$0.064 is due to realignment to higher Agency priorities. The decrease in FY12 of -$0.059 supports higher Agency priorities. The decrease of -$8.187 million in base funding is due to curtailed development of the C2 Adaptive Planning tools and movement of selected Joint Planning and Execution System applications to sustainment.
