What is the purpose?

The Committee Management module assists grantor agency staff in managing the operations of advisory committees according to the requirements of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA).

The Committee Management module manages information associated with establishing, amending, re-chartering, and termination of review committees and subcommittees and the nomination and appointment of members to these committees and subcommittees. The module also is used to maintain information associated with committee meetings and meeting attendees.

What are the features of Committee Management?

• The Committee Management module captures information on advisory meetings such as dates, start times, and meeting location
• Using the module, the review administrator and agency staff can determine a nominee’s availability/eligibility for serving on the committee or attending a specific meeting, add people to the committee’s meeting roster, process nominations/appointments to the committee, track conflicts of interest, capture costs associated with a specific meeting, and generate meeting rosters and other reports
