J2 - Intelligence

EUCOM’s intelligence enterprise focuses on the commander’s priorities to provide advanced warning, situational understanding, relevant predictive estimates, and strategic context for its strategy of “active security” and lines of operation. Its findings drive EUCOM’s policy and decision-making. To conduct partnership building, stability operations, contingency planning, combat operations, and crisis response, the J2 balances the requirements of theater strategic decision-makers and operational commanders who demand unparalleled military intelligence. Identifying risks and opportunities to enable stability and security across the theater, the J2 leads intelligence operations and coordinates with national agencies, allies, and other partners to leverage a “whole of government” approach.

EUCOM’s intelligence enterprise strategies include:

• Command, control and integrate theater intelligence activities
• Maximize national, allied, and partner capacity and capabilities through increased collaboration and federation
• Pursue authorities’ architectures to realize partnership potentials
• Identify intelligence shortfalls and corresponding risks to develop mitigation strategies
• Train, educate and exercise the workforce to ensure readiness
