Advanced IT Services Joint Program Office (AITS-JPO)

Abstract

Advanced IT Services Joint Program Office (AITS-JPO) identifies and integrates new and mature commercial information technology (IT) and advanced operational concepts into net-centric battlespace capabilities to access and exchange critical information; exploit opportunities to enhance current force capabilities; and project future force IT requirements. AITS-JPO supports preparing for future joint force and coalition initiatives through developing and integrating a full range of data services and advanced IT applications to support cooperative activities between the US and its coalition partners. These emergent capabilities are technologies that can be rapidly infused into existing tools. The program uses three key mechanisms to streamline the process of fielding emergent requirements: (1) Joint Capability Technology Demonstrations (JCTDs) with the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD)/Combatant Commands (COCOMs)/Services/Agency; (2) Joint Ventures with COCOMs/Program of Record (POR); and (3) Risk Mitigation Pilots with POR/Community of Interest. The JCTD process aligns with the revised Joint Capability Integration and Development System process, developed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, by adapting technology and concept solutions to meet pressing warfighter needs. OSD approves new JCTDs annually and on a rolling start basis. Defense Information Systems Agency participates in both a technical and transition manager role. The JCTDs and the Joint Ventures and risk mitigation pilots use a teaming approach thereby sharing costs and reducing the risk to individual organizations.

Change Summary Explanation
The decrease of -$0.499 in FY 2015 is due to a decrease in civilian pay execution. The decrease of -$5.036 in FY 2016 is due to agency efficiencies and reductions to overhead support contracted labor. The decrease of -$24.747 in FY 2017 is an Agency efficiency and results in the disestablishment of the JCTD program. As a result, civilian pay and FTEs were realigned to RDT&E PE 0302019K (62 FTES), and O&M (31 FTEs). In addition, non-pay funding was realigned to RDT&E PE 0302019K.
