and shall ensure compliance with the
requirements of the FACA, the
Government in the Sunshine Act of
1976 (5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended) (‘‘the
Sunshine Act’’), governing Federal
statutes and regulations, and established
DoD policies and procedures.
The Board shall be composed of no
more than 35 members. The members
must possess the following: (a) A proven
track record of sound judgment in
leading or governing large, complex
private sector corporations or
organizations and (b) a wealth of toplevel, global business experience in the
areas of executive management,
corporate governance, audit and

members will be appointed by the
Secretary of Defense or the Deputy
Secretary of Defense for a term of
service of one-to-four years and will be
renewed on an annual basis in
accordance with DoD policies and
procedures. Members of the Board who
are not full-time or permanent part-time
Federal officers or employees will be
appointed as experts or consultants
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3109 to serve as
special government employee (SGE)
members. Members of the Board who
are full-time or permanent part-time
Federal officers or employees will be
appointed pursuant to 41 CFR 102–
3.130(a) to serve as regular government
employee (RGE) members. All members
of the Board are appointed to provide
advice on the basis of their best
judgment without representing any
particular point of view and in a manner
that is free from conflict of interest.
Consistent with Deputy Secretary of
Defense policy, the DCMO may appoint
the Board chair or vice chairs from
among the Secretary of Defense
approved Board membership and, in
doing so, the DCMO shall determine the
term of service for the Board chair and/
or chairs, which shall not exceed the
member’s approved term of service.
All Board members will be
reimbursed for travel and per diem as it
pertains to official business of the

speak to the Board membership only on
those topics governed by their
respective advisory boards provided the

general public. They do not represent
their respective advisory boards. These
non-voting ex-officio SGE and RGE
members, when invited by the Secretary
of Defense, will not count toward the

The Director of Administration, Office
of the DCMO, on behalf of the Secretary
of Defense, the Deputy Secretary of
Defense, and the DCMO and pursuant to
DoD policies and procedures, may
appoint, as deemed necessary, nonvoting subject matter experts (SMEs) to
assist the Board or its subcommittees on
an ad hoc basis. These non-voting SMEs
are not members of the Board or its
subcommittees and will not engage or
participate in any deliberations by the
Board or its subcommittees. These nonvoting SMEs, if not full-time or
permanent part-time Federal
government officers or employees, will
be appointed pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3109
on an intermittent basis to address
specific issues under consideration by
the Board.
DoD, when necessary and consistent
with the Board’s mission and DoD
policies and procedures, may establish
subcommittees, task forces, or working
groups to support the Board.

include terms of reference, by the
Secretary of Defense or the Deputy
Secretary of Defense. Such
subcommittees shall not work
independently of the Board and shall
report all their recommendations and
advice solely to the Board for full
deliberation and discussion.
Subcommittees, task forces, or working
groups have no authority to make
decisions and recommendations,
verbally or in writing, on behalf of the
Board. No subcommittee or any of its
members can update or report, verbally
or in writing, directly to the DoD or to

her best judgment without representing
any particular point of view and in a
manner that is free from conflict of
interest.
Consistent with Deputy Secretary of
Defense policy, the DCMO may appoint
the subcommittee chair or chairs from
among the Secretary of Defense
approved subcommittee membership
and, in doing so, the DCMO shall
determine the term of service for the

established DoD policies and
procedures.
The Board’s DFO is required to attend
all meetings of the Board and its

the absence of the Board’s DFO, a
properly approved Alternate DFO, duly
appointed to the Board according to
