Joint Transportation Management System (JTMS)

The Joint Transportation Management System (JTMS) falls under the Research, Development, Test & Evaluation, Air Force / BA 4: Advanced Component Development & Prototypes (ACD&P). The specific goals and objectives of this program include providing an overarching solution to reform functional financial and logistics capabilities within the Transportation of Things. It aims to support the Joint Deployment and Distribution Enterprise (JDDE) by delivering integrated, streamlined transportation and financial data and processes. The program seeks to automate the linkage between transportation action tasks and transportation business-related tasks across the full spectrum of financial activity, from obligations through general ledger accounting. Additionally, it aims to close major gaps that prevent auditability within the transportation spend across DoD and achieve significant gains in Senior Leader Decision Support and Business Analytics as outlined in the Department of Defense's Data Strategy.

The program also plans to engage in key pre-acquisition activities to support a projected FY24 prime integrator award, including drafting or executing key management plans and programmatic activities required to inform the acquisition. This involves developing a strategy to procure and establish the appropriate hosting environment to support the chosen materiel solution and initiating accreditation activities per the required Risk Management Framework (RMF) classification. Furthermore, it aims to start pre-acquisition activities including standing up the Joint Program Office (JPO) and conducting lead time work required with respect to business process re-engineering and organizational change management necessary to build the groundwork for the recommended solution from the analysis of alternatives results. The program also plans to increase hired positions in the JPO to ramp up pre-acquisition activities.

Overall, Program PE 0604668F seeks to enhance transportation management capabilities by integrating financial data with transportation operations in the joint domain, providing JDDE users with transactional-level visibility in a resilient transportation network while reducing duplicate capabilities.
