The Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS), is the formal United States Department of Defense (DoD) procedure which defines acquisition requirements and evaluation criteria for future defense programs.
It establishes
procedures that support the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the JCS and
the JROC in advising the Secretary of Defense in identifying and
assessing joint military capability needs.
The Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) is the highest level board and is the process owner for the JCIDS process.
