PWC Mission
• Deliver multi-faceted training, JLVC enablers, and exercise / event support to
USPACOM CMDR and HQs staff; JTFs/CTFs; Component Commanders and staffs;
Partners; and joint context to Service level activities (with focus on PACOM Joint
Exercise Program)
• Coordinate and collaborate for Strategic M&S initiatives, new and enhanced
capabilities, and represent USPACOM in multiple joint training venues in support
of PACOM CMDRs joint M&S vision and requirements, warfighter needs, and
elimination of training gaps and shortfalls
• Oversight and coordination for Joint training requirements across PACOM HQs,
including individual training, staff training, collective training, and associated
tools and processes
• Rapid prototyping solutions for PACOM requirements with an experiment and
development platform to validate proof of concept capabilities within a training
environment in order to quickly transition to the warfighter (joint operational
environment)
• Deliver collaboration environments and control tools to build a synthetic
environment that sets the conditions for realistic training and supports global
operations
Delivering Engagement activities across Pacific Theater

Pacific Theater Joint M&S Vision
Enhanced Pacific-Theater Joint / Combined M&S
capability to efficiently organize and apply available joint
tools, technical staff, and processes among regional
U.S. and Partner Nation simulation centers for support
of existing, new, and emerging joint exercise and
training requirements
• PWC is the Lead Organization for implementing this vision in
support of the USPACOM Commander
• Information sharing and achievement of common standards
and compatible tools, systems, and networks to effectively
conduct US and Partner Nation activities

Training Gaps & Analysis Forum (TGAF)
Training Gap 44: Joint Training Enterprise Architecture (JTEA), Use Case Project
• TGAF is a forum that is facilitated by the Joint Staff J7 with
members from the Combatant Commands (COCOMs) and
Services to share problems and challenges within the Joint
Training Community
– Work together to identify, prioritize, and define requirements for
training gaps
• USPACOM J73 is the sponsor for Training Gap (TG) 44:
Joint Training Enterprise Architecture
– Problem Statement: The Joint Community lacks a joint training
enterprise architecture that is economical, sustainable, scalable,
flexible, distributable, and deployable for support of U.S. only,
bilateral, and multinational training environments.
• As part of TG 44 activities, USPACOM has completed a Use
Case Project to collect requirements from across the Joint
Community
