defense acquisition program or subprogram in a fiscal year is the
difference between the current program acquisition unit cost for
the program or subprogram and the program acquisition unit cost for
the program as shown in the original Baseline Estimate for the
program or subprogram, multiplied by the quantity of items to be
purchased under the program or subprogram, as reported in the final
Selected Acquisition Report for the fiscal year in accordance with
section 2432 of title 10, United States Code.

acquisition programs that are joint programs of more than one
military department shall be allocated among the military
departments in percentages determined by the Under Secretary of
Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics.

department in a fiscal year is the sum of the cost overruns and
cost underruns for all covered major defense acquisition programs
of the department in the fiscal year (including cost overruns or
underruns allocated to the military department in accordance with
paragraph (2)).
(4) The cost overrun penalty for a military department in a

overruns of the military department in the fiscal year, as
determined pursuant to paragraph (3), except that the cost overrun
penalty may not be a negative amount.

(c) Review of Acquisition Oversight and Audits.--
(1) Review required.--The Secretary of Defense shall review the

goals of--
(A) enhancing the productivity of oversight and program and
contract auditing to avoid duplicative audits; and
(B) streamlining of oversight reviews.
(2) Recommendations.--The Secretary shall ensure streamlined

recommendations in the report required under paragraph (3) for any
necessary changes in law.
(3) Report.--
(A) Not later than one year after the date of the enactment

congressional defense committees a report on actions taken to
avoid duplicative audits and streamline oversight reviews.

proposals in inventory from prior fiscal years that are currently being
audited by the Defense Contract Audit Agency.
SEC. 894. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON EVALUATION METHOD FOR PROCUREMENT OF
AUDIT OR AUDIT READINESS SERVICES.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Given the size, scope, and complexity of the Department of
Defense, the statutory deadline to establish and maintain auditable
financial statements, starting with the fiscal year 2018 financial
statement, is one of the more challenging management tasks that has
ever faced the Department.
(2) As the military services have never received a clean
opinion on their consolidated financial statements and only
recently begun auditing portions of their financial statements, the
audits of military service financial statements will also be a
complex challenge for companies selected to provide audit services.
(3) The acquisition of services by the Department abides by
many rules and parameters, one of which is the lowest price,
technically acceptable (LPTA) evaluation method. LPTA is generally
appropriate for commercial or noncomplex services or supplies where
the requirement is clearly definable and the risk of unsuccessful
contract performance is minimal.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that, before
using the lowest price, technically acceptable evaluation method for
the procurement of audit or audit readiness services, the Secretary of
Defense should establish the values and metrics for evaluating
companies offering audit services, including financial management and
audit expertise and experience, personnel qualifications and
certifications, past performance, technology, tools, and size.
SEC. 895. MITIGATING POTENTIAL UNFAIR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE OF
TECHNICAL ADVISORS TO ACQUISITION PROGRAMS.
Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of this
Act, the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and
Logistics shall review, and as necessary revise or issue, policy
guidance pertaining to the identification, mitigation, and prevention
of potential unfair competitive advantage conferred to technical
advisors to acquisition programs.
SEC. 896. SURVEY ON THE COSTS OF REGULATORY COMPLIANCE.
(a) Survey.--The Secretary of Defense shall conduct a survey of
contractors with the highest level of reimbursements for cost type
contracts with the Department of Defense during fiscal year 2014 to
estimate industry's cost of regulatory compliance (as a percentage of
total costs) with Government-unique acquisition regulations and
requirements in the categories of quality assurance, accounting and
financial management, contracting and purchasing, program management,
engineering, logistics, material management, property administration,
and other unique requirements not imposed on contracts for commercial
items.
(b) Report.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall submit to the
congressional defense committees a report on the findings of the survey
conducted under subsection (a). The data received as a result of the
survey and included in the report shall be aggregated to protect
against the public release of proprietary information.
SEC. 897. TREATMENT OF INTERAGENCY AND STATE AND LOCAL PURCHASES
WHEN THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ACTS AS CONTRACT INTERMEDIARY FOR
THE GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION.
Contracts executed by the Department of Defense as a result of the
transfer of contracts from the General Services Administration or for
which the Department serves as an item manager for products on behalf
of the General Services Administration shall not be subject to
requirements under chapter 148 of title 10, United States Code, to the
extent such contracts are for purchases of products by other Federal
agencies or State or local governments.
SEC. 898. COMPETITION FOR RELIGIOUS SERVICES CONTRACTS.
The Department of Defense may not preclude a non-profit
organization from competing for a contract for religious related
services on a United States military installation.

SMALLER CONTRACT ACTIONS UNDER THE TRUTH IN NEGOTIATIONS ACT.
(a) Pilot Program Authorized.--The Secretary of Defense may conduct
a pilot program to demonstrate the efficacy of using risk-based
techniques in requiring submission of data on a sampling basis for
purposes of section 2306a of title 10, United States Code (popularly
known as the ``Truth in Negotiations Act'').
(b) Increase in Thresholds.--For purposes of a pilot program under
subsection (a), $5,000,000 shall be the threshold applicable to
requirements under paragraph (1) of section 2306a(a) of such title, as
follows:
(1) The requirement under subparagraph (A) of such paragraph to
submit cost or pricing data for a prime contract entered into
during the pilot program period.
(2) The requirement under subparagraph (B) of such paragraph to
submit cost or pricing data for the change or modification to a
prime contract made during the pilot program period.
(3) The requirement under subparagraph (C) of such paragraph to
submit cost or pricing data for a subcontract entered into during
the pilot program period.

below-threshold contracts.--Subject to paragraph (4), when
certified cost or pricing data are not required to be submitted
pursuant to subsection (b) for a contract or subcontract entered
into or modified during the pilot program period, such data may
nevertheless be required to be submitted by the head of the
procuring activity, if the head of the procuring activity--
(A) determines that such data are necessary for the

the contract, subcontract, or modification of a contract or
subcontract; or
(B) requires the submission of such data in accordance with
a risk-based contracting approach established pursuant to
paragraph (3).
(2) Written determination required.--In any case in which the
head of the procuring activity requires certified cost or pricing
data to be submitted under paragraph (1)(A), the head of the
procuring activity shall justify in writing the reason for such
requirement.
(3) Risk-based contracting.--The head of an agency shall
establish a risk-based sampling approach under which the submission
of certified cost or pricing data may be required for a risk-based
sample of contracts, the price of which is expected to exceed
$750,000 but not $5,000,000. The authority to require certified
cost or pricing data under this paragraph shall not apply to any
contract of an offeror that has not been awarded, for at least the
one-year period preceding the issuance of a solicitation for the
contract, any other contract in excess of $5,000,000 under which
the offeror was required to submit certified cost or pricing data
under section 2306a of title 10, United States Code.
(4) Exception.--The head of the procuring activity may not
require certified cost or pricing data to be submitted under this
subsection for any contract or subcontract, or modification of a
contract or subcontract, covered by the exceptions in subparagraph
(A) or (B) of section 2306a(b)(1) of title 10, United States Code.
(5) Delegation of authority prohibited.--The head of a

TITLE IX--DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT

Sec. 901. Update of statutory specification of functions of the Chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff relating to joint force
development activities.
Sec. 902. Sense of Congress on the United States Marine Corps.
SEC. 901. UPDATE OF STATUTORY SPECIFICATION OF FUNCTIONS OF THE
CHAIRMAN OF THE JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF RELATING TO JOINT FORCE
DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES.
Section 153(a)(5) of title 10, United States Code, is amended by
adding at the end the following new subparagraph:
``(F) Advising the Secretary on development of joint command,
control, communications, and cyber capability, including
integration and interoperability of such capability, through
requirements, integrated architectures, data standards, and
assessments.''.
SEC. 902. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) As senior United States statesman Dr. Henry Kissinger wrote
in testimony submitted to the Committee on Armed Services of the
Senate on January 29, 2015, ``The United States has not faced a
more diverse and complex array of crises since the end of the
Second World War.''.
(2) The rise of non-state forces and near peer competitors has
introduced destabilizing pressures around the globe.
(3) Advances in information and weapons technology have reduced
the time available for the United States to prepare for and respond
to crises against both known and unknown threats.
(4) The importance of the maritime domain cannot be overstated.
As acknowledged in the March 2015 Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast
Guard maritime strategy, ``A Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century
Seapower: Forward, Engaged, Ready'': ``Oceans are the lifeblood of
the interconnected global community. . . 90 percent of trade by
volume travels across the oceans. Approximately 70 percent of the
world's population lives within 100 miles of the coastline.''.
(5) The United States must be prepared to rapidly respond to
crises around the world regardless of the nation's fiscal health.
(6) In this global security environment, it is critical that
the nation possess a maritime force whose mission and ethos is
readiness--a fight tonight force, forward deployed, that can
respond immediately to emergent crises across the full range of
military operations around the globe either from the sea or home
station.
(7) The need for such a force was recognized by the 82nd
Congress during the Korean War, when it mandated a core mission for
the nation's leanest force--the Marine Corps--to be most ready when
the nation is least ready.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the Marine Corps, within the Department of the Navy, remain
the Nation's expeditionary, crisis response force;
(2) the need for such a force with such a capability has never
been greater; and
(3) accordingly, in recognition of this need and the wisdom of
the 82nd Congress, the 114th Congress reaffirms section 5063 of
title 10, United States Code, which states that the Marine Corps--
(A) shall--
(i) be organized to include not less than three combat
divisions and three air wings, and such other land combat,
aviation, and other services as may be organic therein;
(ii) be organized, trained, and equipped to provide
fleet marine forces of combined arms, together with
supporting air components, for service with the fleet in
the seizure or defense of advanced naval bases and for the
conduct of such land operations as may be essential to the
prosecution of a naval campaign; and
(iii) provide detachments and organizations for service
on armed vessels of the Navy, provide security detachments
for the protection of naval property at naval stations and
bases, and perform such other duties as the President may
direct;
but these additional duties may not detract from nor interfere
with the operations for which the Marine Corps is primarily
organized;
(B) shall develop, in coordination with the Army and the
Air Force, those phases of amphibious operations that pertain
to the tactics, techniques, and equipment used by landing
forces; and
(C) is responsible, in accordance with the integrated joint
mobilization plans, for the expansion of peacetime components
of the Marine Corps to meet the needs of war.

SEC. 1001. GENERAL TRANSFER AUTHORITY.
(a) Authority to Transfer Authorizations.--
(1) Authority.--Upon determination by the Secretary of Defense
that such action is necessary in the national interest, the
Secretary may transfer amounts of authorizations made available to
the Department of Defense in this division for fiscal year 2016
between any such authorizations for that fiscal year (or any
subdivisions thereof). Amounts of authorizations so transferred
shall be merged with and be available for the same purposes as the
authorization to which transferred.

amount of authorizations that the Secretary may transfer under the
authority of this section may not exceed $4,500,000,000.

authorizations under title IV shall not be counted toward the
dollar limitation in paragraph (2).
(b) Limitations.--The authority provided by subsection (a) to
transfer authorizations--
(1) may only be used to provide authority for items that have a
higher priority than the items from which authority is transferred;
and

been denied authorization by Congress.
(c) Effect on Authorization Amounts.--A transfer made from one
account to another under the authority of this section shall be deemed

is transferred by an amount equal to the amount transferred.

information otherwise available in other reports to Congress.
SEC. 1004. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON SEQUESTRATION.
It is the sense of the Congress that--
(1) the fiscal challenges of the Federal Government are a top
priority for Congress, and sequestration--non-strategic, across-
the-board budget cuts--remains an unreasonable and inadequate
budgeting tool to address the deficits and debt of the Federal
Government;
(2) budget caps imposed by the Budget Control Act of 2011
(Public Law 112-25) impose unacceptable limitations on the budget
and increase risk to the national security of the United States;
and
(3) the budget caps imposed by the Budget Control Act of 2011
must be modified or eliminated through a bipartisan legislative
agreement.
SEC. 1005. ANNUAL AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF DEPARTMENT OF

Defense shall obtain each year audits of the financial statements of
each such component by an independent external auditor.
(b) Selection of Auditors.--The selection of independent external
auditors for purposes of subsection (a) shall be based, among other
appropriate criteria, on their qualifications, independence, and
capacity to conduct audits described in subsection (a) in accordance
with applicable generally accepted government auditing standards. The
Inspector General shall participate in the selection of the independent
external auditors.

conduct of all audits by independent external auditors under subsection

Chief Financial Officer of the Department of Defense for the

(B) the Controller of the Office of Federal Financial
Management in the Office of Management and Budget; and
(C) the appropriate committees of Congress.
(2) Appropriate committees of congress defined.--In this
subsection, the term ``appropriate committees of Congress'' means--

Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, and the Committee
on Appropriations of the Senate; and
(B) the Committee on Armed Services, the Committee on
Oversight and Government Reform, and the Committee on
Appropriations of the House of Representatives.
(e) Relationship to Existing Law.--The requirements of this
section--
(1) shall be implemented in a manner that is consistent with
the requirements of section 1008 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2002 (Public Law 107-107; 10

(1) The stability and security of Central American nations have
a direct impact on the stability and security of the United States.
(2) Over the past decade, increased stability and security in
the Republic of Colombia has displaced illicit trafficking to
Central America, bringing with it increased violence and
instability.
(3) According to the Global Study on Homicide 2013 of the
United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, four of the top five
countries with the highest homicide rates in the world were Central
American nations, including Honduras, Belize, El Salvador, and
Guatemala.
(4) In 2014, approximately 65,000 unaccompanied alien children
from Central America entered the United States through its
southwest border.
(5) In November 2014, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador
announced a Plan for the Alliance for Prosperity of the Northern
Triangle, which is a comprehensive approach to address the ongoing
violence and instability facing these three nations by stimulating
economic opportunities, improving public safety and rule of law,
and strengthening institutions to increase trust in the state.
(6) The United States Government is supportive of the Alliance
for Prosperity, and President's strategy for support includes
$1,000,000,000 focused on promoting prosperity and regional
economic integration, enhancing security, and promoting improved
governance.
(7) The Department of Defense continues to build the capacity
of our partners in the region to address their security challenges

instability, illicit trafficking, and transnational organized crime
that challenge the sovereignty of Central American nations and the

(2) in order to address such issues, the Department of Defense,
to the extent practicable, should--
(A) increase its operations, as the lead agency of the
United States Government, to detect and monitor aerial and
maritime illicit trafficking into the United States;
(B) increase its efforts to support aerial and maritime
illicit trafficking interdiction operations;
(C) increase its operations to build the capacity of
partner nations in Central America to confront their own
security challenges;
(D) support interagency programs and activities in Central

appropriate to achieve those goals, the Administrator should
conduct competition of such contracts while recognizing the unique
nature of federally funded research and development centers; and
(4) the Administrator should ensure that fixed fees and
performance-based fees contained in management and operating
contracts are as low as possible to maintain a focus on national
service while attracting high-quality contractors and achieving the
goals of the competition.
