The Defense Business Board in the United States was established in 2001 as a complement to broader transformation efforts in the Department of Defense to move from an overly burdensome bureaucracy to a more streamlined, effective organization. The board consists of approximately 20 private-sector executives with experience in business management. The purpose of the board is to provide independent advice that reflects an outside, private-sector perspective on best business practices for application within the department. The board's objective is to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of organizational support to the nation's warfighters.
