USJFCOM is responsible for joint force provision as the primary joint force provider. It plans and executes rotational force sourcing to meet enduring requirements, provides emergency forces for combatant commands, and monitors force readiness. USJFCOM uses a formal process to validate requirements, assess risk, identify capable forces from the services, and make sourcing recommendations to the Secretary of Defense for approval. Key tools used include the Joint Crisis Response Management System and Global Force Management Allocation Plan.
