Overview
Joint Effects Based Command and Control (JEBC2) is a software system that will allow our joint forces to gain and sustain an advantage across air, land, sea, space and information. The package of services dramatically improves Command and Control capabilities by taking network-centric thinking to a more efficient level -- Effects-Based Operations. It provides real-time understandable information in order to make correct decisions the first time.
JEBC2 allows every activity, platform, operations center, even the activity within the operations center, to act as a node on the network. This operationally unifying framework allows commanders to take preemptive defensive and offensive actions to resolve conflicts. This system also offers the ability to reduce force profiles and synchronize capabilities by mirroring the environment.
