General
EAC Joint Intelligence Support Element a. A tailored subset of the theater JIC, the
JISE provides intelligence support to EAC operational forces and performs common
intelligence functions. The JISE is the principal J-2 organization supporting joint
operations. By design, the JISE is scaleable and can expand to meet the needs of the EAC,
and it is tailored to fit the operating environment based on identified CEAC requirements.
The JISE is composed of analytical experts and analysis teams that provide services and
products required by the CEAC, EAC staff, and components. These all-discipline and
all-warfare specialty analysis teams should be focused on substantive operational
intelligence problems. Analysis teams should take into account pertinent information from
all sources; a JISE’s capability for joint and all-source analysis is the key to
operational intelligence that is timely, relevant, and complete. JISE should support
"upward" to the supported combatant commander’s JIC, CEAC, and the EAC
staff and should support "downward" to components, units, and elements assigned
and attached to, or in support of, the EAC.
Analytical efforts of the JISE should have an operational focus, with responsibility
for helping the CEAC to better understand how the adversary thinks, e.g., how an adversary
will conceptualize the situation, what options an adversary will consider, and how an
adversary will react to the EAC actions. When the CEAC is engaged in planning operations,
the JISE assists by: Identifying and nominating attainable military objectives;
Orientation of planners to the situation (mission analysis); Providing updates during
planning; Identifying enemy COAs (COA development); Identifying intelligence capabilities
and shortfalls that affect the development of COAs (COA development); Participating in COA
analysis wargaming by representing enemy COAs; Conducting J-2 COA comparison; Identifying
intelligence requirements; Identifying time-phased force and deployment list (TPFDL)
requirements; Identifying and nominating deception objectives that will help attain
military objectives; and Performing the intelligence function of targeting, i.e.,
analyzing the enemy and the situation, and identifying and nominating to the CEAC those
critical enemy vulnerabilities that can be exploited by direct military operations to
attain the commander’s intent and objectives. When the CEAC and subordinate
commanders are engaged in conducting operations, the JISE assists by: In conjunction with
J3 watch teams and collection managers, orchestrating all forms of reconnaissance and
surveillance of the enemy which are necessary for understanding the situation, identifying
objectives and opportune targets, providing warning to forces, and assessing the effects
of operations; Preparing estimates of enemy C2, logistics, ground, air, space, air
defense, maritime force capabilities, and intentions; and Assessing the effects of
operations (to delay, disrupt, debilitate, destroy, dissuade, or coerce) on enemy
capabilities and intentions. In addition, the JISE also may be used to manage intelligence
resources and efforts and to coordinate application of senior, subordinate, and supporting
commands’ intelligence activities.
