Here\u2019s the deal lawmakers reached on the huge defense policy bill.<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">U.S. House and Senate negotiators reached agreement Monday on the 2019 defense authorization bill.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather, the conference report directs the DoD\u2019s chief management officer to conduct a series of ongoing reviews assessing the efficiencies and effectiveness of each defense agency and DoD field activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The measure stems from the initiative of House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mac Thornberry, R-Texas, to slash Pentagon bureaucracy by targeting so-called fourth estate agencies: agencies that don\u2019t fall under a single uniformed service and don\u2019t report directly to the secretary of defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the House Armed Services Committee summary of the bill, these agencies make up 20 percent of DoD\u2019s overall budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DISA oversees the operation of DoD networks and IT, as well as significant parts of federal communications, mobility, satellite communications and cloud services. The agency has a total budget of nearly $10 billion and more than 5,000 employees and 7,500 contractors. Officials at the agency have repeatedly declined to discuss a possible closure, saying they do not comment on pending legislation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While earlier drafts of the policy bill from the House targeted DISA directly by name, the conference report eliminates the direct mention of the agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/c4isrnet\/disa\/2018\/04\/18\/under-proposed-dod-cuts-disas-future-gets-murky-fast\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"214\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/isr-vision-guide-disa-cloud-2jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">With proposed cuts, what happens to DISA\u2019s mission?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">If DISA gets eliminated, where will its functions go?

an agency that is substantially similar to or duplicative of an activity carried out by another DoD entity or is not being performed to an adequate level to meet DoD needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Such a review shall be conducted in an ongoing, periodic basis, but no less frequent than every four years, the legislation says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A follow-on report, due to Congress 90 days after the aforementioned review, will contain a list of each agency or field activity the CMO has determined operates efficiently and effectively and without substantially redundant functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For agencies not included in the list, the bill notes that a plan to better meet DoD needs must be developed to rationalize the functions of the agency or transfer some of the agency\u2019s responsibilities to other organizations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2019 National Defense Authorization Act requires a review of so-called fourth estate agencies in search of
