A temporary committee formed for a specific, short-term purpose is established to address a particular issue or task. Once the committee completes its assigned task or reaches its designated objective, it is automatically dissolved. An example would be a group assembled to investigate a specific incident within an organization and recommend appropriate actions.
The value of such a committee lies in its flexibility and focused expertise. It allows organizations to quickly mobilize resources and specialized knowledge to address emerging problems without disrupting existing organizational structures. Historically, these committees have been used in various settings, from government investigations to corporate restructuring, providing focused attention to issues requiring immediate and dedicated effort.
