The Joint Support and Enabling Service (German: Streitkräftebasis, pronounced [ˈʃtʁaɪ̯tˌkʁɛftəˌbaːzɪs] ⓘ, abbreviated: SKB, pronounced [ɛskaːˈbeː] ⓘ; literally Armed Forces Foundation) is a branch of the German Bundeswehr established in October 2000 as a result of major reforms of the Bundeswehr.

[1] In May 2021 the minister of defense Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer together with inspector general Eberhard Zorn published a plan to dissolve the Joint Support and Enabling Service and to reintegrate its units into the army, navy, airforce and cyber command.

The Streitkräfteamt (Armed Forces Office) directs all schools, training and research centres, the Militärischer Abschirmdienst (Military Counterintelligence Service), and the Bundeswehr's higher academies and universities.

In April 2012 as part of the major reorganisation that ended conscription, the Armed Forces Operations Command (Einsatzführungskommando) was resubordinated directly to the Inspector of the Bundeswehr.

[4] In September 2022 another reorganisation created the Territorial Operations Command (Territoriales Führungskommando) from parts of the JJoint Support and Enabling Service, which also was subordinated directly to the Inspector of the Bundeswehr.
