Foreword
On 28 September 2012, I issued the Capstone Concept fo r Joint Operations (CCJO) : Joint Force 2020. It

relevance for operations within the context of my vision for Joint Force 2020 and beyond .

The Joint Information Environment (JIE) will be among the first concrete changes along the path to

and our mi ss ion partners a shared IT infrastructure with a common set of enterprise services, under a
single security architecture. Over time, the JIE framework will produce IT efficiencies.
The JIE will be an important evolution in our inform ation environment. It will change the way we
assemble, configure, and use new and legacy informati on technologi es. It will consist of networked
operations centers, a consolidated set of core data centers, and a global identity m You should write your response with 150 or more words.
