OCCO is located in the Office of the Surgeon General and carries out the day-to-day management and administration of major commissioned corps operational functions. In a Federal Register Notice dated December 11, 2003, the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management authorized the reorganization of commissioned corps functions, including the creation of OCCO and specified the functions of this new entity.

Among other things, OCCO conducts recruitment; commissioned corps boards; issues personnel orders; oversees the performance, discipline and conduct of commissioned officers; collaborates with the Office of Commissioned Corps Force Management on the development and the implementation of policies and regulations; and advises the Assistant Secretary for Health and the Surgeon General on matters related to operations management of the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps.
