Website: http://innovation.defense.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Due to circumstances beyond the control of the Designated Federal Officer and the Department of Defense, the Defense Innovation Board was unable to provide public notification concerning its meeting on January 17, 2018, as required by 41 CFR 102- 3.150(a). Accordingly, the Advisory Committee Management Officer for the Department of Defense, pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.150(b), waives the 15-calendar day notification requirement. This meeting is being held under the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) of 1972 (5 U.S.C., Appendix, as amended), the Government in the Sunshine Act of 1976 (5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended), and 41 CFR 102-3.140 and 102-3.150. Purpose of the Meeting: The mission of the DIB is to examine and provide the Secretary of Defense and the Deputy Secretary of Defense independent advice and recommendations on innovative means to address future challenges in terms of integrated change to organizational structure and processes, business and functional concepts, and technology applications. The DIB focuses on (a) technology and capabilities, (b) practices and operations, and (c) people and culture. Agenda: During the closed portion of the meeting, the DIB will receive classified informational briefings from the Deputy Chief Management Officer related to innovation priorities and DoD business reforms and modernization efforts; from the Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army related to innovation priorities and establishment of the Army Modernization Command; and from senior military representatives from the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and the Air Force on innovation activities within the Services to build workforce innovation capacity, promote and optimize operational practices for speed and agility, and leverage advances in technology. During the open portion of the meeting, the DIB will invite selected experts to provide analysis and inputs related to innovation, innovation cells, and innovation activities within DoD related to workforce innovation initiatives. Potential experts include: From the United States Army, Chief of Staff, General Mark Milley; from the Defense Digital Service, Tim Van Name; from the Navy Digital Warfare Office, Margaret Palmieri; from the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Irregular Warfare, Lt Col Dave Blair, USAF; from the Military District 5 office within the office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Manufacturing and Industrial Base Policy, Morgan Plummer; and from the Chief Data Officer for the U.S. Air Force, Maj Gen Kim Crider. The DIB will deliberate and potentially vote on recommendations to (1) Design a DoD Fast-Track for Major Technology Initiatives, (2) Incubate and Execute New Ideas from the Field, (3) Create a New Innovation, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (I-STEM) Career Field, and (4) Establish a Technology and Innovation Training Program for DoD Senior Leaders. The DIB will discuss the initial research and plan for the Software Acquisition Reform (SWAR) study directed in the 2018 National Defense Authorization Act. The DIB's Executive Director will brief the DIB on DoD's latest implementation activities [[Page 2149]] related to DIB recommendations. Members of the public will have an opportunity to provide oral comments to the DIB regarding the DIB's deliberations and potential recommendations. See below for additional information on how to sign up to provide public comments. Meeting Accessibility: Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1), the DoD has determined that the portion of the meeting from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. shall be closed to the public. The Assistant Deputy Chief Management Officer, in consultation with the Office of the DoD General Counsel, has determined in writing that this portion of the DIB's meeting will be closed as the discussions will involve classified matters of national security.
