Office of the Secretary of Defense


Defense Business Board; Notice of Federal Advisory Committee 
Meeting

AGENCY: Chief Management Officer, Department of Defense.

ACTION: Notice of Federal Advisory Committee meeting.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Defense (DoD) is publishing this notice to 
announce that the following Federal Advisory Committee meeting of the 
Defense Business Board (``the Board'') will take place.

DATES: Closed to the public Wednesday, August 8, 2018 from 8:00 a.m. to 
1:00 p.m.

ADDRESSES: Rooms 3E155 & 3E863 in the Pentagon, Washington, DC.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Roma Laster, (703) 697-2168 (Voice), 
(703) 614-4365 (Facsimile), [email protected] (Email). Mailing 
address is Defense Business Board, 1155 Defense Pentagon, Room 5B1088A, 
Washington, DC 20301-1155. The Board's website is: http://dbb.defense.gov/.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Due to circumstances beyond the control of 
the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Designated Federal Officer, the 
Defense Business Board was unable to provide public notification 
required by 41 CFR 102-3.150(a) concerning the meeting on August 8, 
2018 of the Defense Business Board. 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) (5 U.S.C., Appendix), the Government in the 
Sunshine Act (5 U.S.C. 552b), and 41 CFR 102-3.140 and 102-3.150.
    Purpose of the Meeting: The mission of the Board is to examine and 
advise the Secretary of Defense and the Deputy Secretary of Defense, 
through the Chief Management Officer (CMO) of the Department of Defense 
on overall DoD management and governance. The Board provides 
independent advice which reflects an outside private sector perspective 
on proven and effective best business practices that can be applied to 
DoD.
    Agenda: The meeting will begin at 8:00 a.m. in Room 3E155 with 
opening remarks from Ms. Roma Laster, the Board's Designated Federal 
Officer (DFO, and Mr. Bill Simon, Chairman of the Board. Following 
opening comments, the Board will receive briefings from the Boston 
Consulting Group and McKinsey & Company, Inc. on cost management 
efforts within the Department. The Board will next meet in Room 3E863 
with the Secretary and the Deputy Secretary of the Defense for a 
classified discussion of the National Defense Strategy. The meeting 
will adjourn not later than 1:00 p.m.
    Meeting Accessibility: In accordance with section 10(d) of the FACA 
and 41 CFR 102-3.155, the DoD has determined that the Board's meeting 
will be closed to the public. Specifically, the CMO, in consultation 
with the DoD Office of General Counsel, has determined in writing that 
the meeting will be closed to the public because it will consider 
matters covered by 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and (c)(4).
    The U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) determination is based on the consideration 
that the Secretary and the Deputy Secretary of Defense discussions will 
involve classified matters of national defense or foreign policy. Such 
classified material is so intertwined with the unclassified material 
that it cannot reasonably be segregated into separate discussions 
without disclosing secret or otherwise classified material. The 5 
U.S.C. 552b(c)(4) determination is based on the fact that both the 
Boston Consulting Group and McKinsey & Company. Inc. will disclose 
commercial information that is privileged or confidential. To permit 
the meeting to be open to the public would preclude discussion of such 
matters and would greatly diminish the ultimate utility of the Board's 
advice and recommendations to the DoD.

    Written Statements: In accordance with section 10(a)(3) of the FACA 
and 41 CFR 102-3.105(j) and 102-3.140, interested persons may submit a 
written statement for consideration by the Board at any time regarding 
its mission or in response to the stated agenda of a planned meeting. 
Individuals submitting a written statement must submit their statement 
to the Board's DFO at any point. Submit written statement to the 
Board's organizational mailbox at: [email protected]. Please note that since the Board operates in 
accordance with the provisions of the FACA, all submitted comments will 
be treated as public documents and will be made available for public 
inspection, including, but not limited to, being posted on the Board's 
website.
