Abstract

Mission Description and Budget Item Justification: The JTIDS program supports collaborative efforts to achieve strategy-driven capability development spanning the suite of Department enablers to include Communications and Networks, Cyber, Command and Control (C2), Non-Intel Space and Business Systems. These efforts include conducting mission informed capability-based analysis; portfolio assessments to include analyzing modernization trends that result in the development of roadmaps or business area strategies that support balanced investment decisions; and monitoring and assessing Major Defense Acquisition Programs(MDAPs) , Major Automated Information Systems (MAIS), and defense Business Systems in a capability portfolio context. Activities in the JTIDS project are divided into four areas: (1) mission informed capability-based analysis; (2) Interoperability & Integration; (3) roadmap development and support to business area strategies; and (4) support tools and guidance. JTIDS also enables cross-department collaboration to enable enterprise-wide approaches. This includes: (1) vertical and horizontal integration activities within the Department and with the interagency where appropriate; (2) engaging in a coordinated portfolio-based approach to planning, programming, budgeting and execution; and (3) reform efforts at the legislative, governance, management and execution levels. JTIDS is focused on capabilities-based portfolio management of the Department's key enablers, thus there are many shared equities with in ASD(A) and across OSD. To fully meet mission need the JTIDS program supports extensive collaboration with required alliances and with other OSD PSA's for Communications and Networks, C2, Non-Intel Space and Business Systems.
