Structure
J-PAS Collaboration Board
The Collaboration Board, CB, is the body with the authority for the development of the J-PAS Projects. These are representatives from the main institutions funding the Survey and is chaired by the representative of CEFCA. The CB will conduct periodic reviews of the J-PAS Projects, the J-PAS Data Management and Archiving (JPDMA), the Cameras Project, and the OAJ Project. The Collaboration Board will examine the Pipelines, as part of these reviews. The Collaboration Board will conduct readiness reviews of the T80Cam System, the JPCam System, JPDMA System, and the OAJ at times they deem appropriate.

Science Directors
Science Directors have the overall responsibility for the coordination of the different projects of J-PAS and for carrying out the J-PAS Survey and scientific exploitation. Their functions are:
- To coordinate the activities at the systems interfaces of the J-PAS Projects and the contributions of the Collaboration for the installation, commissioning and operation phases of the Survey.
- To serve as the principal point of contact between the SMC and the Collaboration Board.
- To represent the Collaboration in interactions with the Collaboration Board and the Collaborating Institution and are advised by the SMC on all matters relevant to the Collaboration.

Survey Management Comittee (SMC)
The SMC represents the interests of the Collaboration in all phases of the survey. The SMC is the body to organize, articulate and coordinate all the necessary activities to achieve the goals of the Collaboration. The SMC will advice the CB on all the matters related with all the aspects of the J-PAS. The SMC will meet periodically. The JPCam Project Manager, the JPDMA Project Manager and the OAJ Project Manager are ex-officio members of the SMC.
