The
DoD Joint Technical Architecture (JTA) provides the minimum set of standards
that, when implemented, facilitates the seamless flow of information among
DoD’s sensors, processing and command centers, shooters, and support activities
to achieve dominant battlefield awareness and move inside the enemy’s decision
loop. The JTA:
· Provides the
foundation for interoperability among all tactical, strategic, and combat
support systems.
· Mandates IT
standards and guidelines for DoD system development and acquisition that will
facilitate interoperability in joint and coalition force operations.
· Communicates to
industry DoD’s preference for open system, standards-based products and
implementations.
· Acknowledges the
direction of industry’s standards-based development.
The
goals continues to be to “reach a consensus of a working set of standards” and
“establish a single unifying DoD technical architecture that will become
binding on all future DoD C4I acquisitions" so that "new systems can
be born joint and interoperable, and existing systems will have a baseline to
move toward interoperability."
