The Universal Joint Task List (UJTL) is the authoritative menu (or library) of all approved joint tasks required for planning, readiness reporting, training and exercises, lessons learned processing, and requirements. A universal joint task (UJT) is an action or activity assigned to a unit or organization to perform a specific function and/or provide a capability or resource. UJTs are based on extant joint capabilities, and they have a foundation in approved joint doctrine. Specifically, UJTs describe "what" joint organizations must do using common and joint terminology. The UJTL is required for developing a joint mission-essential task list (JMETL).
