Description

Mission Joint Energetics Transition Office (JETO)

The FY 2024 National Defense Authorizations Act (NDAA) directs The Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment (USD(A&S)) and Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (USD(R&E)) to select the Head and Deputy Head of Joint Energetics Transition Office (JETO), respectively. JETO will establish and manage a DoD field activity dedicated to systems engineering associated with energetic materials. Additionally, JETO has been assigned strategic roles, tactical roles, coordination responsibilities, and directed studies. This new joint office is intended to improve the transition of energetic materials and technologies to programs of record. It will also result in cost savings through economies of scale and lower barriers for additional suppliers entering the market. Roles and responsibilities of include: DoD Field Office: The establishment and management of a Department of Defense field activity will be dedicated to systems engineering associated with energetic materials. The field activity mission will be to reduce technical risk; integrate research; develop, test, and evaluate energetic materials; and perform Department of Defense system demonstration programs on novel energetic materials for use in weapon systems. This field office will execute studies to inform the Energetic Materials Strategic Plan and Investment Strategy. Per NDAA language, these activities must be funded under budget activity 3 (advanced technology development) or budget activity 4 (advanced component development and prototypes). Strategic Roles: JETO will create an Energetic Materials Strategic Plan and Investment Strategy and report on changes and progress annually. Tactical Roles: JETO will identify and develop plans to alleviate any shortfalls in the supply chain for energetic materials. It will determine targets which would be better addressed with advanced energetics materials. It will also conduct studies which inform the Program Objective Memorandum (POM) process. Coordination: JETO will identify promising new energetic materials and technologies. It will mature, integrate, prototype, test, and demonstrate novel energetic materials and technologies. It will also expedite the transition of energetic materials and technologies from the research and development phase to production and operational use. Finally, it will identify or establish prototyping demonstration venues. Directed Studies: JETO will oversee processes, including recommending changes to regulations to (1) expedite the validation, verification, and accreditation of modeling and simulation, and (2) expedite the qualification process for energetic materials, from discovery through integration. Additionally, the NDAA generated a requirement for three standalone reports and one annual report to be fulfilled by JETO.

Justification

Accomplishments & Planned Programs (1)

Initiate execution of JETO roles and responsibilities

Begin staffing and execution of the JETO, limited to the following statutory roles and responsibilities: 1. Develop an energetic materials strategic plan and investment strategy, including performance metrics 2. Leverage existing tools and working groups to track supply chains and identify shortfalls 3. Coordinate DoD technology strategy for energetic materials 4. Share energetic Test & Evaluation (T&E) data across the Department of Defense 5. Review and assess qualifications policies to identify opportunities to expedite transition 6. Submit an annual report on JETO activities

Awards

No awards are linked to this program element at high confidence — the budget→award crosswalk only asserts links it can defend, and this line has none yet.

Lobbying Mentions

No Senate LDA lobbying filing in the tracked data mentions this program element by code or alias.

Oversight

Department-level designation (not specific to this program)

GAO lists 5 high-risk areas for DOD as a whole. That designation covers the department, not Joint Energetic Transition Office — no program-specific GAO finding for this line is in the ingested data. See the DOD oversight record.

No research dossier for this program — dossiers cover 50 of 1,741 programs, the largest fully J-book-detailed lines by FY2026 requested dollars. why no dossier here? →
