Reco.mnendations 6.1.1 and 6.1..2. The Committee approved 6.1.1
establishing an "Information Services Architect" but suggested that
the title be revised. They also-approved Recommendation 6.1.2,
assigning the architect to the DDA.
3. Mr. Wortman suggested that the Committee spend the rest
of the meeting considering the proposed mission and functions of
the "architect" and postpone reviewing the remaining recommendations
until affected offices had an opportunity to comment on them.
Mr. Carlucci agreed, stipulating that Mr. Wortman should identify
those recommendations that could be handled appropriately at his
level and the rest could be brought back for Committee review
by late October. He also asked that the basis for the resource
estimates in the recommendations be explained.
4. Mr. Wortman highlighted preliminary discussions regarding
potential candidates for the "architect" position. Five internal
candidates and a number of external candidates are being considered.
? The subsequent discussion of the mission and, functions of the
"architect" included the appropriate grade level (about GS-17,
possibly GS-18) and the appropriate boundary line betJr~en the
"architect's" general planning functions and the detailed operational
responsibilities of line managers. The Committee agreed to adopt the
proposed mission and function statements for the time being and review
them- for possible revisions after the "architect" has been in operation
long enough to evaluate them.
