In May 2014, Project Manager Mission Command merged with Project Manager Joint Battle Command-Platform (PM JBC-P) under Mission Command. PdM JBC-P transitioned into a subordinate product of PM MC.
Col. Michael Thurston, the former project manager for PM JBC-P, assumed command of PM MC. The combined organization will consolidate and simplify the many different digital systems that the military uses.[1]
PM MC's product offices are Tactical Mission Command (TMC), Fire Support Command and Control (FSC2), Joint Battle Command-Platform (JBC-P), Strategic Mission Command (SMC), Tactical Digital Media (TDM), and Command Post Computing Environment (CP CE).[3]
The Army’s framework for exercising mission command is the operations process-the major mission command activities performed during operations: planning, preparing, executing, and continuously assessing the operation.[9]
The concept of mission command is to help Army forces function effectively and accomplish missions. The Army’s primary mission is to organize, train, and equip forces to conduct prompt sustained land combat operations.[10]
