JTIMS Vision and Mission

• The Joint Staff, Combatant Commands, Services,
  Combat Support Agencies and the National Guard
  use JTIMS to
• Automate individual and collective training
  requirements
• Manage large-scale multinational, interagency,
  intergovernmental training events efficiently and
  effectively
• Identify force training requirements for planning
  purposes
• Develop robust reports to retrieve data faster to
  support AOs/Planners
• Vision
• To deliver a Joint Training Information
  Management System that is easy to use, supports
  informed decision making, and is fully integrated
  with other systems of interest to minimize
  rework, in order to fully support and implement
  the JTS
• Mission
• To provide world-class Net-Centric technology
  solutions that exceed end-user expectations in
  support of the JTS
• To provide the Joint Community collaboration
  tools to collect, analyze, and share information
  in support of executing the JTS

JTIMS Development Principles
JTIMS Login Page

• COCOM users / action officers play a key role in
  defining the operational design of the system and
  validating the system was built according to
  specification
• The system shall be user friendly, intuitive and
  require minimal training
• The system shall be Net-Centric using the latest
  web and integration technologies
• The system shall integrate with other
  systems-of-interest (DRRS, JDEIS, etc) to
  minimize rework and maximize information sharing
• The development effort is collaborative -- all
  stakeholders will have input

New Stratlift Roles

• Stratlift Manager At each COCOM, including
  TRANSCOM and Joint Staff. Enables the user to
  view the COCOM, Validated Funding Levels, and
  Planning Rates. Enables the user to enter ROM
  cost, Estimated Actual, exercise Budget, combine
  exercises within the COCOM and across COCOMs, and
  adjust the exercise Budget as required.

SPIRAL 5 Proposed Capabilities
15
Spiral 5 will include the development and the
release of two versions of the JTIMS Enterprise
and the JTIMS Lite applications

• Version 2.1
• JTIMS Enterprise Updates to integrate with DRRS
  3.0 (Oct/Nov 2006)
• JTIMS Lite Updates to integrate with DRRS 3.0
  (Dec/Jan 2006)
• Version 2.2 (February 2007)
• JTIMS Enterprise Application enhancements
• JTIMS Lite Application enhancements

16
Version 2.1 of JTIMS will support an integrated
METL display from DRRS v3.0

• JTIMS is currently integrated with DRRS v2.0 to
  provide METL and Unit data
• DRRS v3.0 became the system of record on June
  8th, retiring DRRS v2.0
• JTIMS METL information has not been updated since
  June 8th
• The key difference between DRRS v3.0 and DRRS
  v2.0 is how a MET is defined
• The changes in DRRS were implemented to remove
  some of the required fields (Mission, OPR, etc.)
  in order to support lower echelon readiness
  reporting
• Because of JTIMS reliance on METL information,
  the DRRS v3.0 change requires that JTIMS be
  reconfigured in order to provide updated METL for
  each Usergroup

17
Version 2.2 of JTIMS will address high priority
user defined requirements and enhancements

• System Development (Enterprise Edition)
• Stratlift Updates based on user feedback
• User Group Management User Group Hierarchys
  parent/child relationships
• Reports User Group reports for UGLs, Updates to
  custom queries
• Events Calendar Briefing View, Enhanced
  calendar functionality, Linked events approval
  process
• JMSEL - Full Integration of JMSEL capabilities -
  Add/edit/delete an Inject, Edit and update
  Storylines/Threads for exercise, Inject Release
  processing (coordination and actual injection),
  JMSEL specific roles (MSEL Manager, cell manager,
  etc),
• Provide web service for TPA/MTA data (Note This
  is highly dependent on DRRS requirement)
• System Development (Lite Edition)
• JMSEL capabilities - Full integration of JMSEL
  capabilities Add/edit/delete an Inject, Edit and
  update Storylines/Threads for exercise, Inject
  Release processing (coordination and actual
  injection), JMSEL specific roles (MSEL Manager,
  cell manager, etc),
