DCMO Policy and Integration

Abstract

The Deputy Chief Management Officer (DCMO), a position created by the National Defense Authorization Act for 2008, is the Principal Staff Assistant (PSA) and advisor to the Secretary and Deputy Secretary of Defense for matters relating to management and improvement of integrated DoD business operations. The Office of the DCMO (ODCMO) was created to integrate business processes and over 2,400 business systems costing approximately $7B / year to acquire, modernize and operate. Following FY 2012 disestablishment of the Business Transformation Agency (BTA), the ODCMO conducts research and development of the Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA) for the Department’s Business Mission Area (BMA). The BEA, along with data standards development and war fighter support, provides the foundation for several Departmental priorities to include Financial Auditability and directed efficiencies.

Change Summary Explanation
In FY 2012, select organizational missions and functions of the ODCMO and the Business Transformation Agency (BTA) were integrated and consolidated within the ODCMO as directed by the Secretary of Defense. This transfer of select functionality to the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) / ODCMO will provide focused integration and synchronization of business improvement activities in support of the war fighter across all Departmental components. In FY 2013, the labor adjustment is the result of transfer of labor dollars to the Defense Wide Operations and Maintenance account (O&M), specifically realigning funds in compliance with Financial Management Regulations (FMR) which require expenses of research and development management at headquarters and administrative organizations be funded with O&M; to centralize and consolidate contracting services and realize contracting efficiencies to improve acquisition planning and oversight. And the final adjustment is the ODCMO portion of Secretary of Defense efficiencies initiatives.
