Deployable Joint Command and Control , or DJC2, is a United States military joint program whose purpose is to provide a first response command and control deployment system for both civilian disaster response and military operations.

Overview

The DJC2 program provides a standardized, rapidly deployable and reconfigurable Joint Command and Control (C2) and collaboration Combat Operations Center (COC) system to Geographic Combatant Commanders (GCCs) and component commands.

A Joint Force Commander can use DJC2 to execute operations ranging from a first responder up to and including full Joint Task Force (JTF) Combat Operation Center (COC) operations.

DJC2 components

The components of a fully fielded DJC2 system include: shelters; infrastructure; power; environmental control; trailers; limited communications equipment (to support en route, early entry, and rapid response operations only); Government-off-the-shelf (GOTS) C2 and commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) office automation and collaboration software applications with operator workstations; displays; intercommunications; local area networks; and access to wide area networks.

DJC2 deployments

The DJC2 has been deployed in several major actions and in the Hurricane Katrina Disaster Relief, where DJC2's developmental system was deployed to New Orleans to support the Joint Force Maritime Component Commander
