What term is used to describe a team chartered to solve a problem?

I am struggling to recall a term that defines a team of people that is organized around a charter to solve a problem.



It's a term I've run across recently and I'm unable to recall it. I'm hoping that others may be able to share suggestions.

    In corporate jargon, a tiger team.

  • Thank you, Dan. Looking for something more formal. I modified the question to clarify the request.

    Then maybe a task force?

  • Don't put formal in quotes if you're not going to provide more context. (Why do you have it in quotes? Are you insinuating something beyond its normal meaning?) Tiger team is perfectly formal in any business setting. Just because it's jargon, doesn't mean it's not formal for that setting.

You may be thinking of "blue ribbon panel".



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-ribbon_panel




In the United States, a blue-ribbon panel (or blue ribbon commission) is a group of exceptional people appointed to investigate, study or analyze a given question.

There's an appropriate term



Ad-hocracy



: a temporary organization or committee set up to accomplish a specific task
(MWD)



According to Collin's Dictionary:



adhocracy



noun



management that  responds to urgent problems rather than planning to avoid them
