According to DODI 8500.2, the "DIACAP team members" are defined as:

This question is now outdated since the DoD has moved to RMF as their accreditation mechanism. Under RMF the team members should include the AO (authorizing official), CA (certification authority), system owner, and user representative.
The first DIACAP document that lists the team members will usually be a document called the System Identification Profile (SIP).

The short answer is - YES. Both the IAM and the IAO have responsibilities in implementing DIACAP. Table E3.A1.T1 of DoDI 8500.2 states that the System Identification Profile must list the members of the DIACAP team, to wit: Identify the DIACAP Team (e.g., DAA, the CA, the DoD IS PM or SM, the DoD IS IAM, IAO, and UR. Note that BOTH the IAM and IAO are listed. The acronym IASO is synonymous with IAO.
The most acceptable list of DIACAP (DoD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process) team members typically includes the Information System Owner, the Authorizing Official, the Information Assurance Manager, and the System Security Engineer. Additionally, team members may include security control assessors, risk management personnel, and representatives from IT operations and compliance. This diverse team ensures comprehensive oversight and effective implementation of security controls throughout the DIACAP process.
The most acceptable list of DIACAP (Department of Defense Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process) team members typically includes a Program Manager, Information System Owner, Information Assurance Manager, Security Control Assessor, and a System Administrator. Additionally, representatives from the Information Assurance Workforce, the Designated Approving Authority, and any relevant stakeholders may also be involved. Each member plays a crucial role in ensuring compliance with security controls and facilitating the certification process. Collaboration among these roles is essential for effective implementation of DIACAP.
Both the IAM and the IAO have responsibilities in implementing DIACAP. Table E3.A1.T1 of DoDI 8500.2 states that the System Identification Profile must list the members of the DIACAP team, to wit: Identify the DIACAP Team (e.g., DAA, the CA, the DoD IS PM or SM, the DoD IS IAM, IAO, and UR. Note that BOTH the IAM and IAO are listed. The acronym IASO is synonymous with IAO. The IAM may delegate the actual work to the IAO/IASO but still has ultimate responsibility to see that the work gets done. They do not have sole responsibility however - the other listed team members also share the responsibility.
The most acceptable list of DIACAP (DoD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process) team members typically includes an Information System Owner, Information Assurance Manager, Security Control Assessor, System Administrator, and a Risk Management Framework (RMF) specialist. Additionally, stakeholders such as the Chief Information Officer (CIO) and representatives from legal, compliance, and operational teams may also be involved to ensure comprehensive oversight and adherence to policies. This diverse team collaborates to assess risks, implement security controls, and maintain compliance throughout the system's lifecycle.
