JOINT MODELING AND SIMULATION MANAGEMENT

The Joint Staff directorate, combatant command staff, or joint activity
having functional responsibility will identify requirements for JM&S. As a joint
force command of USJFCOM, JWFC will provide expertise, advisory support,
and strategic planning support within the joint training community on model
and simulation issues through J-7 to the Joint Staff M&S focal point. DISA,
the C4ISR Decision Support Center, and the Joint C4ISR Battle Center will
collect, coordinate, and submit requirements, goals, objectives, and programs
for C4I JM&S capabilities through J-6 to the Joint Staff M&S focal point.

4. The joint components will program sufficient funds in their program
objective memorandums and provide resources to carry out their functional
M&S responsibilities, including supporting the development and operation of
required JM&S. Additionally, the joint components will provide input to J-8
initiated data calls (generally conducted annually) to maintain currency of the
Joint M&S Inventory, which includes the status of HLA transition of joint owned
simulations.
