and 102-3.150. Due to circumstances beyond the control of the
Department of Defense and the Designated Federal Officer for the Board,
the DoD was unable to provide public notification required by 41 CFR
102-3.150(a) concerning its August 9-10, 2022 meeting. 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.
Purpose of the Meeting: The mission of the Board is to examine and
advise the Secretary of Defense on overall DoD management and
governance. The Board provides independent, strategic-level, private
sector and academic advice and counsel on enterprise-wide business

2022 from 9:45 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Eastern time with opening remarks by
Ms. Jennifer Hill, the Designated Federal Officer and Chair's opening
remarks by Hon. Debbie James. Next, will be a classified overview of
the National Defense Strategy by Hon. Colin Kahl, Under Secretary of
Defense for Policy. The Designated Federal Officer will then adjourn
the closed session. The Board will reconvene in an open session from
2:10 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. The Designated Federal Officer will open the
public session. The Board will then receive an update on the Mentor

Programs. Hon. William LaPlante, Under Secretary of Defense for

Chain and Acquisition: Issues and Initiatives. After Hon. LaPlante's
discussion, the Designated Federal Officer will adjourn the open
session. The Board will conduct a closed session from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30
p.m. Eastern time. The Designated Federal Officer will open the closed
session followed by the Chair's welcome. The Board will then receive a
classified briefing on Air Force acquisition issues and initiatives
with respect to the supply chain and beyond from Hon. Frank Kendall,
Secretary of the Air Force. At the conclusion of Hon. Kendall's
briefing, the Designated Federal Officer will adjourn the closed
session. The Board will reconvene in closed session on August 10, 2022
at 9:00 a.m. Eastern time with opening remarks by Ms. Jennifer Hill,
the Designated Federal Officer. The Board will then receive classified

Meeting Accessibility: In accordance with Section 10(d) of the FACA
and 41 CFR 102-3.155, it is hereby determined that portions of the
August 9-10, 2022 meeting of the Board will include classified
information and other matters covered by 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and that,
accordingly, the meeting will be closed to the public on August 9, 2022
from 9:45 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. and from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. and on
August 10, 2022 from 9:05 a.m. to 11:35 a.m. and from 1:00 p.m. to 3:10
p.m. This determination is based on the consideration that it is
expected that discussions throughout these periods will involve
classified matters of national security. Such classified material is so
intertwined with the unclassified material that it cannot reasonably be
segregated into separate discussions without defeating the
effectiveness and meaning of these portions of the meeting. To permit
these portions of 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 findings and recommendations to the Secretary of
Defense and to the Deputy Secretary of Defense. Pursuant to section
10(a)(1) of the FACA and 41 CFR 102-3.140, the portion of the meeting
on August 9, 2022 from 2:10 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. is open to the public.
Persons desiring to attend the public session are required to register.
