OVERVIEW: This video addresses the responsibilities of the Senior Management Official (SMO) as outlined in 32 CFR Part 117 (NISPOM Rule). It focuses on SMO roles and responsibilities, provide a brief overview of the NISPOM Rule, and the importance of the SMO during annual self-inspections. This video is recommended for attendance by Senior Management Officials, Key Management Personnel, Facility Security Officers, and key security staff.

On February 24, 2021, 32 CFR Part 117, “National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (NISPOM)” became effective as a federal rule. Referred to as the “NISPOM rule,” it provides the contractor no more than 6 months from this effective date to comply with the requirements stipulated therein. The NISPOM rule replaces the NISPOM previously issued as a DoD policy (DoD 5220.22-M), which will be cancelled shortly after the allotted 6 month implementation period ends. Until then, DoD 5220.22-M will remain in effect.

The rule implements policy, assigns responsibilities, establishes requirements, and provides procedures consistent with Executive Order 12829, “National Industrial Security Program;” Executive Order 10865, “Safeguarding Classified Information within Industry;” and 32 Code of Regulation Part 2004, “National Industrial Security Program.” That guidance outlines the protection of classified information that is disclosed to, or developed by contractors of the U.S. Government.
