JCTD Program
Created in 1995, the Advanced
Concepts Technology
Demonstration Program
(precursor to JCTDs)
emerged from the Packard
Commission as a way to
reduce cost and risk of
entering full-scale acquisition
A long history of accelerating the transition of affordable, game-changing capabilities
Mission
• Address Combatant Command (CCMD) and Joint warfighting
gaps through prototyping and demonstration of innovative and
game-changing technologies
Objectives
• Demonstrate solutions within 2-4 years (from the identification
of a warfighting gap)
• Deliver meaningful military utility and refine CONOPs / TTPs
• Provide effective leave-behind capabilities when required
• Facilitate technology transition to acquisition programs
• Leverage open architectures to enhance interoperability and
promote affordability
Unique Project Structure
• Oversight provided by an integrated management team of key
stakeholders (CCMD OM, Service TM, Service XM)
• Dedicated funding to commence work in the year of selection
• Relief from some JCIDS requirements
• Opportunities for a truncated acquisition process (post-JCTD)
CONOPS – Concept of Operations, TTP – Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures
OM – Operational Manager, TM – Technical Manager, XM – Transition Manager
JCIDS – Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System

• Initiate data call for new start proposals based on ‘technical and operational’ relevancy in
support of :
‒ National Defense Strategy & Execution Strategy
‒ Chairman Joint Chief of Staff’s Capability Gap Assessment
‒ USD (R&E) and Military Services’ Science and Technology (S&T) Strategies
Proposal Selection Process
‒ Services, CCMDs, and Defense Agencies establish cross-functional teams
(technical, operational, and transition managers) to propose projects
‒ OSD staff leads initial review and solicits input from Subject Matter Experts (SMEs)
o Proposals are graded on: Technology innovation, degree of jointness, cost
share (1-to-1 is goal), and transition potential (into a program of record, or
informing an evolving acquisition initiative)
‒ Final Proposals reviewed by Executive Cross-Functional Team, led by USD(R&E)
‒ Initiate ~8-12 new start projects each FY (Goal)
JCTD Proposal
L&l_JCTD_-9UNCLASSIFIED
JCTD Project Selection Guidelines
• Addresses a JOINT, cross-cutting / multi-domain, or open systems capability
Multi-Service / Agency, multi-platform, interoperability, or joint coalition need
• Technology capability that addresses an operational challenge
Can build upon, but does not duplicate ongoing Service / Agency investments
Supported by Service S&T Executive(s)
• Impact to warfighter is clearly stated
What IPL, JUON/JEON, or other requirement is being addressed
• Technology is mature enough (TRL 6-9) to support a military utility assessment
Accelerates development & demo of technology to satisfy operational gap(s)
TRL 4 ‘start’ is acceptable if technology is a ‘game-changer’ and the CCMD supports as
potential gap-filler
• CCMD Operational Sponsorship: Required
• Demonstrated level of Service or Agency interest
Primary: Strong commitment with stated interest by Service S&T Executives and S&T
Community of Interest (COI)
Optional: Interagency or international participation
• Identified CCMD (operational), technical, and transition leads

L&l_JCTD_-25UNCLASSIFIED
Transition PhaseSummary
Transition of Operationally Useful Technology to the warfighter and/or acquisition
is the measure of success of the JCTD Project
Transition generally can occur through three paths:
Limited Operational Use (LOU) (interim deployment of the JCTD solution set)
Follow-on acquisition (transitioning into Defense Acquisition System to a new or existing Program
of Record)
Availability on the General Services Administration schedule
Transition Paths are supported, as required
MUA Report is Finalized & Endorsed by the Sponsoring CCMD (hopefully)
Closeout Briefing is completed
Residual Capabilities Solutions are supported, as required, for LOUs
Plans, partnerships and transition agreements are refined and coordinated
through the Integration and Assessment phases
Transition Planning must begin early-on in the JCTD Process
Transition Management is a Contact Sport

L&l_JCTD_-27UNCLASSIFIED
JCIDS and JCTDs
Joint Capability Technology Demonstrations (JCTDs) and other experiments.
“At a minimum, assessments of JCTDs and other completed experimentation must,
if applicable, establish the operational utility of the capability solution and provide
the basis for establishing an enduring capability requirement. The scope of the
assessment may be tailored depending upon the level of detail available to the
Sponsor and the nature of the demonstrated capability solution.
(a) An assessment may be a suitable replacement for analysis used
as the basis for ICD, CDD, or CPD preparation, depending upon the maturity of
the capability solution. In these cases, assessments are to contain the
critical elements of information that are described for CBAs and required in the
capability requirement documents, including description of the capability
requirements and associated gap(s); associated tasks, conditions, and
operational performance standards/metrics; and how the materiel and
nonmaterial approaches address these factors.”
JCIDS Manual (Enclosure C): 12 February 2015
L&l_JCTD_-28UNCLASSIFIED
A synergistic JCTD can rapidly develop a capability & transition to MS B or
C faster than the normal JCIDS process.
The technology build, subsequent ODs, & MUA can equate to the JCIDS
CBA, ICD, AoA, etc., which can underpin a CDD or CPD, and support an
MDA’s decision to accept the technology for a PoR.
The essential JCIDS components can be included in the JCTD ID,
Management Plans, Methodologies, Assessment Plans, Data Collection
Plans, and other events to support both the JCIDS and JCTD processes.
Specific tasks supporting JCIDS documentation may be necessary to
properly capture JCIDS inputs.

• … is a model that applies when schedule considerations dominate over cost and technical
risk considerations
• This model compresses or eliminates phases of the process and accepts the potential for
inefficiencies in order to achieve a deployed capability on a compressed schedule
• The model shows one example of tailoring for accelerated acquisition and many others are
possible
• For products that must be developed and acquired as quickly as possible, usually motivated
by a potential adversary achieving technological surprise, and featuring a greater acceptance

What is a Successful JCTD?
Real world criteria: Did the Warfighter/Supporters of
the Warfighter benefit? Yes
PM adopts technology and incorporates into PoR
New PoR established to further develop/acquire
Kept in the field and used as is (Limited or Long-term Operational Use)
Acquire more units
New/existing PM, GSA Schedule, CCMD procurement
Not yet – but potential future benefit “Technology Transfer” - Technology made available to contractors for use in
current/future products (military and commercial)
Not suitable for current use – return to S&T world for further development
Mature, but not affordable (below the cut line)
