Committee Overview
The National Science Foundation's Advisory Committee for Business
and Operations provides advice to the Director, Office
of Budget, Finance, and Award Management (BFA) and to the Director,
Office of Information and Resource
Management (OIRM) of the National Science Foundation concerning
issues related to the oversight, integrity, development and enhancement
for improved performance of NSF's business operations. These operations
are critical in assuring that the agency effectively implements
its science, technology and education mission. Emphasis is placed
on how NSF can most effectively meet its strategic goals and other
statutory accountability requirements related to its business operations,
including financial and administrative operations, award management,
business policies and procedures, human resource development and
information and communications systems.
The Committee not only advises on current best practices, but also
looks to the future regarding advances on the frontiers of management
issues. Specialized guidance is addressed through the use of subcommittees,
task groups or committees of visitors (COVs) within the structure
of the Advisory Committee.
