The Office of Personnel Management's (OPM) mission is to help
agencies build an effective Federal civilian workforce based on merit
system principles, which America needs to guarantee freedom, promote
prosperity, and ensure the security of the Nation. OPM leads Federal
agencies in the strategic management of their human capital, proposes
and implements human resources management policy, and provides agencies
with ongoing advice and technical assistance to implement these policies
and initiatives.
In 2008, OPM will support agencies' pay-for-performance
demonstration projects to replace the current General Scedule pay system
with a modern classification, pay, and performance management system
that is both results-driven and market-based.
OPM also supports veterans' preference in Federal hiring and manages
the process for personnel security and background checks for suitability
and national security clearances. OPM continues to honor the
Government's commitment to employees by managing the trust funds that
support the retirement and insurance benefits they earn, and delivering
[[Page 1000]]
excellent benefit services and support to civil servants both during and
after their Federal careers.
The 2008 Budget will permit OPM to implement long-term human capital
strategies that deliver results, pursue a progressive agenda of policy
initiatives to transform human resources management, and enhance the
values of the civil service. New human resources management policies
will streamline the Federal hiring process, decrease time to hire, and
change how Federal employees are paid and how their job performance is
evaluated. Many of these polices will be driven by the lessons learned
from agencies with contemporary and efficient personnel systems.
The functions and objectives of the OPM Divisions are:
Strategic Human Resources Policy (SHRP).--Promulgates human
resources (HR) policies which strengthen leadership and succession
planning activities; provides quality workforce information and common
standards for agency payroll and HR systems; supports improved employee/
labor relations and security/suitability requirements; establishes
competitive compensation and benefits systems; and provides agencies HR
flexibilities to hire talent.
In 2008, OPM will continue to lead the design, development, and
implementation of HR policies and strategies, and carry out campaigns
that will aid Federal agencies ability to attract and retain qualified
employees to close mission critical skill gaps. OPM also will further
enhance the Presidential Management Fellows and Senior Executive Service
(SES) Federal Candidate Development programs, as needed, and develop and
provide other tools to enhance agency recruitment programs. In 2007, OPM
will develop proposals to enhance Federal agencies' ability to both
attract new workers and retain highly skilled retirees on a temporary
basis. Finally, OPM will continue to assess and report on the
effectiveness of SES performance-based pay system each year.
OPM will continue assessing the results of its strategic human
resources policy activities by using Federal Human Capital Survey and
Federal Benefits Survey data collected in 2006. These two surveys are
administered every two years and will again be administered in 2008. OPM
will also track and report on the extent to which agencies use
innovations such as hiring flexibilities, telework, and student loan
repayments. Our goal is to provide broad, Government-wide indicators on
the status of Federal human capital to lawmakers, managers, and
employees which will enable them to develop appropriate human resource
polices.
During 2006, OPM further developed policies to support agencies'
leadership succession planning efforts. OPM previously issued
regulations to establish an SES pay-for-performance program at an agency
and to specify the criteria that performance management systems covering
senior executives or senior professionals must meet. As a result of
these regulations, at the end of 2006, most agencies have approved or
provisionally-approved programs in place.
OPM implemented High-Deductible Health Plans with Health Savings
Accounts and new Dental and Vision Benefit Plans under the Federal
Employees Health Benefit Program. Also, SHRP successfully implemented a
number of healthcare information technology initiatives to make
information about provider costs or medical claims available
electronically for FEHB health plan members; redesigned the Labor
Agreement Information Retrieval System (LAIRS) to provide ability to
search data using key words and create reports; and added OPM's
publication, Negotiability Determinations by the Federal Labor Relations
Authority.
In 2007, OPM will issue additional common data standards for payroll
systems. In addition, OPM will issue regulations on staffing and
employee development, classification and qualification standards
regulations for new job families. Furthermore, OPM will announce a
Government-wide Healthier Feds campaign challenge beginning in 2007, and
will issue the results of the Federal Human Capital Survey. In 2007 OPM
will also develop requirements and concept of operations for issuing and
using a unique employee number to replace the social security number as
the primary key to employee records. Finally, OPM will implement an
applicant assessment decision tool/guide, and SHRP will co-host with
agency partner(s) a forum to address SES performance and executive
development.
Human Capital Leadership and Merit Systems Accountability
(HCLMSA).--Leads the Government-wide effort to transform human capital
management so that agencies are held accountable for managing their
workforce effectively, efficiently, and in accordance with merit system
principles to achieve mission results.
In 2008, as part of the President's Management Agenda, OPM will
continue to work with Federal agencies as the owner of the Strategic
Management of Human Capital initiative. OPM uses its leadership position
to establish guidelines for human capital under the Standards for
Success in the Human Capital Assessment and Accountability Framework.
OPM provides guidance to agencies in the assessment of their human
capital programs and assists agencies in preparing for personnel reforms
Government-wide. As part of this guidance, OPM developed specific
milestones that contain tools, models, and training to hold agencies
accountable for their human capital practices. OPM also works with
agencies to ensure that agency programs are being managed to accomplish
the mission and are in accordance with merit system principles. In
addition, OPM assists agencies in building and strengthening their
internal human capital accountability programs to include data
collection and analysis, program evaluation, and compliance with merit
system principles.
In 2008, HCLMSA will continue to provide technical assistance to
agencies in various ways. For instance, OPM has statutory mandates to
pre-approve agency actions in a wide range of human capital matters.
HCLMSA, through agencies' Human Capital Officers, reviews and acts on
agency requests on such authorities as: Voluntary Early Retirement
Authority; Voluntary Separation Incentive Authority; dual compensation
waivers; temporary and term appointment extensions; classification
appeals; and pay and leave claims. Through these review processes,
HCLMSA staff will work closely with agency human resources staff to
ensure that each agency implements human capital programs that are best
suited to achieve the agency mission.
During 2006, HCLMSA successfully led the implementation of the
Strategic Management of Human Capital initiative. As agencies improve
their management of human capital, more Federal employees are working
for organizations that are closing gaps in mission critical skills,
better recognizing differences in levels of employee performance,
developing a cadre of potential leaders, and linking day-to-day work to
corporate goals.
HCLMSA also made progress in ensuring agencies comply with the merit
system principles in 2006 by conducting audits of 145 Delegated
Examining Units (DEUs) and full HR Operations audits at 15 agencies. OPM
conducted follow-up audits at 13 DEUs to ensure previously identified
problems were adequately addressed. In addition, OPM worked extensively
with all 26 PMA agencies to develop and implement HC Accountability
systems that conform to OPM standards, including processes to ensure
merit system compliance. In 2007, OPM will oversee operations of HC
Accountability systems and provide technical assistance and direction to
support these efforts. OPM will participate on approximately 180 agency-
led audits.
[[Page 1001]]
Through technical assistance and outreach activities, HCLMSA
accomplished in 2006: hiring makeovers at five agencies that
significantly reduced the time required to fill vacancies; 39
provisional and one full SES system certifications as well as senior
level (SL) and senior technical (ST) system certifications; and training
for 2,900 military personnel at 28 facilities in veterans' rights and
benefits in Federal recruitment systems and employment. In addition,
HCLMSA administered the SES Qualifications Review Boards which led to
more than 900 SES career appointments. Moreover, HCLMSA cleared more
than 300 SES noncareer and limited term appointment authorities, and 280
requests for pay adjustment for SES noncareer appointees. In 2007, OPM
plans to have 20 major agencies meeting targets for closing mission-
critical occupation gaps and also have 12 agencies meeting targets for
closing leadership competency gaps.
Human Resources Products and Services (HRPS).--Provides cost-
effective products and services to help maintain the Government's
position as a competitive employer by assisting agencies, employees, and
annuitants with staffing, selection, development, and retirement and
insurance programs. In addition, HRPS is responsible for supporting the
Department of Justice in ensuring voting rights for American citizens.
The 2008 Budget includes funding to maintain timely processing of
retirement claims, administer retirement insurance programs, and funding
to continue efforts to improve the speed and accuracy of Federal retiree
benefit payments by implementing the Retirement Systems Modernization
(RSM) effort. RSM is OPM's central information technology strategy to
meeting its long-term customer service, business, and financial
management goals for the retirement benefits programs.
RSM will deliver more cost-efficient and timely retirement services
and allow for agency life-cycle retirement counseling. This project will
replace OPM's legacy information technology systems with modern
technology, move from paper to electronic record keeping, and enhance
core retirement business processes to meet the needs of active and
retired federal employees by providing access to account information and
planning tools.
The Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHB) offers
comprehensive and competitive benefit choices for Federal employees,
annuitants, and family members, and helps the Federal government recruit
and retain a high-quality workforce. Through FEHB, OPM will continue to
provide customers with a variety of resources to make more informed
health insurance decisions, including health plan brochures and website
postings, health plan customer satisfaction survey results, web-based
comparison/decision tools, and performance results for managed care
health plans. In 2006, OPM implemented an employee-pay-all dental and
vision benefits program to meet the dental and vision insurance needs of
Federal employees.
OPM will also continue to manage the Federal Employees' Group Life
Insurance Program, the Federal Long Term Care Insurance Program, which
is the largest employer-sponsored long term care insurance program in
the world with over 210,000 enrollees, and the Flexible Spending Account
Program which allows employees to pay for health and dependent care
expenses on a pre-tax basis.
In 2006, OPM successfully achieved four ambitious strategic goals
related to retirement claims processing and services. OPM sets ambitious
targets for its annual performance measures which assess progress in
achieving goals and determine whether OPM meets its objectives. Claims
are currently being processed within 35 days on average, an improvement
over the 98 days average claims processing times in 2005. In 2006, a
backlog elimination project was undertaken and was a significant factor
in achieving the improvements to claims processing times. In 2007, OPM
will add new operational goals and targets that improve customer
service. OPM expects to maintain these improvements in 2008.
In 2006, RSM awarded three significant contracts to support this
effort: one for automated pension calculation; another to transform
business and information technology; and the third to capture and
convert paper data. In 2007, the integrated solution will be built and
tested.
E-Gov Projects.--OPM manages the Human Resources Line of Business
(HR LOB) initiative which is transforming and modernizing HR business
processes and systems Government-wide. In addition to the previously
selected five Federal Shared Service Centers, the HR LOB is selecting
additional private Shared Service Centers to provide technology
solutions to support Federal agencies Government-wide with HR management
and administrative transactional activities. The HR LOB is also
responsible for agency migration to these service centers. In addition,
the Enterprise Human Resources Integration project is an E-Government
initiative to transform human resources processes from paper-based to
electronic-based. OPM operates and maintains a comprehensive data
warehouse of HR information across the Executive branch. Cost
efficiencies are realized through these streamlined HR processes.
Management Services.--Include: OPM human resources; equal employment
opportunity; security; facilities; telecommunications; publishing;
acquisitions; information technology management; risk management;
strategic planning; and financial management to support all of OPM's
goals. In 2008, OPM will continue to support agency-wide performance
reporting and independent evaluation of policies and programs.
Executive Services.--Includes: executive direction; legal advice and
representation; public affairs; and legislative activities concerning
OPM as well as assistance for the President's Commission on White House
Fellows.

This appropriation provides agency-wide audit, investigative,
evaluation, inspection, and administrative sanction functions to
identify program management and administrative deficiencies that may
create conditions for fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement. The audits
function provides internal agency audit, insurance audit, contract
audit, and information systems audit services. Internal agency audits
review all facets of agency operations, including financial statements.
Insurance audits review the operations of health and life insurance
carriers, health care providers, and insurance subscribers. Contract
audits provide professional advice to agency contracting officials on
accounting and financial matters regarding the negotiation, award,
administration, repricing, and settlement of contracts. Information
systems audits review both general controls and application controls for
the agency's systems and programs. The investigative function provides
for the detection and investigation of improper and illegal activities
involving programs, personnel, and operations. The evaluations and
inspections function conducts reviews of agency programs or functions.
Administrative sanctions debar from participation in the health
insurance program those health care providers whose conduct may pose a
threat to the financial integrity of the program itself or to the well-
being of insurance program enrollees.
During 2006, these Inspector General activities resulted in positive
financial impacts over $75 million, 54 arrests, 56 indictments, 46
criminal convictions, and 1,003 administrative sanctions.
In 2008, the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) will continue to
develop its prescription drug audit program, which includes audits of
pharmacy benefit managers. It is estimated that $6 billion is paid
annually for prescription drug premiums by both the Federal Government
and employees combined. This represents approximately 26 percent of the
total premiums for health benefit coverage for Federal employees and
annuitants. By performing these audits, OIG assists FEHB recover
inappropriate expenses charged in previous years, negotiate more
favorable contracts, and positively affect the future costs and benefits
provided to program enrollees. OIG will also continue its FEHB data
warehouse initiative. This project streamlines and enhances the various
administrative and analytical procedures involved in overseeing FEHB.
The purpose of the project is to capture data from experience-rated
insurance carriers in a data warehouse of health care information.
Software tools are available to support a variety of analytical
procedures, including data mining, using the data in the warehouse. The
data warehouse project has facilitated more efficient and effective
oversight of FEHB by enhancing the ability of our auditors and
investigators to identify improper payments.

The Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (P.L. 109-435) created
the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund to put the Postal
Service on a path that fully funds its substantial retiree (annuitant)
health benefits liabilities.
This new account receives from the Postal Service: 1) the pension
savings provided to the Postal Service by the Postal Civil Service
Retirement System Funding Reform Act of 2003 (P.L. 108-18) that were
held in escrow during 2006; 2) payments defined within P.L. 109-435 to
begin the liquidation of the Postal Service's unfunded liability for
post-retirement health benefits; and 3) beginning in 2017, payments for
the actuarial cost of Postal Service contributions for the post-
retirement health benefits for its current employees. The new account
also receives the surplus resources of the Civil Service Retirement and
Disability Fund that are not needed to finance future retirement
benefits under the Civil Service Retirement System to current or former
employees of the United States Postal Service that are attributable to
civilian employment with the Postal Service.
As a result of this new health benefits financing system, the Postal
Service would cease to pay annual premium costs for its post-1971
current annuitants directly to the Employees and Retired Employees
Health Benefits Fund in 2017. Instead, these premium payments would be
paid from amounts
[[Page 1005]]
that the Postal Service remits to this new fund. Payments for a
proportion of the premium costs of Postal Service annuitants' pre-1971
service would continue to be paid by the General Fund of the Treasury
through the Government Payment for Annuitants, Employees Health Benefits
account.

OPM's Revolving Fund supports the President's Management Agenda by
fully or partially funding three E-Government projects: E-Clearance; the
Human Resources Line of Business; and Enterprise Human Resources
Integration. On a fee-for-service basis, the Enterprise Human Resources
Integration project provides Federal agencies with an electronic
official personnel folder (eOPF) system, as well as workforce analysis
and other analytical tools. These tools are designed to streamline and
automate the electronic exchange of standardized HR data and provide
comprehensive workforce analysis, forecasting, and reporting across the
Executive Branch for the strategic management of human capital. The
Revolving Fund also provides financing on a reimbursable basis for
several other products and services to Federal agencies.
The Center for Talent Services (CTS) delivers integrated, expert
solutions to support Federal agencies Human Resources needs. Talent
Services provides relevant, cost-effective products and services on a
fee-for-service basis that span the employment life cycle from
recruitment and selection through training and development. Examples of
CTS's products and services include tailored recruitment and branding,
nationwide testing services (including screening for the U.S. Armed
Forces), employee competency assessments, workforce and succession
planning, surveys of organizational culture and climate, strategies for
change, and automated Human Resources tools such as USAJOBS and
USAStaffing.
The Federal Investigative Services Division (FISD) provides
background investigative services to agencies on a fee basis. FISD
conducts more than 90 percent of the Federal Government's background
investigations concerning Federal employees, contractors, and military
members for various Federal agencies. Investigations are a critical step
in the Federal hiring processes, and can affect hiring or removal
decisions based on the individual's fitness and suitability for
employment. Based on information gathered in background investigations,
Federal agencies also issue security clearances and place individuals in
positions involving national security or the public trust where job
duties are most sensitive to the employing agency.
Since the merger with the Department of Defense, Defense Security
Service in early 2005, OPM has focused on developing policies and
strategies to meet OPM strategic goals and goals set forth by the
Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act (IRTPA) of 2004. FISD
has primarily focused on reducing the backlog of pending investigations
while also improving the timeliness on completing investigations. FISD
has initiated aggressive hiring and training to bolster the field
investigator workforce as well as administrative support for reviewing
and closing out investigations. An International Group has been
established to coordinate and conduct overseas investigations for
Department of Defense personnel. OPM recently entered into a memorandum
of understanding with the Department of State to assist in conducting
overseas investigations on military installations. This relationship
will provide additional resources and increase the timeliness for
completing these background investigations.
OPM has also initiated a major review and update of the core
technology components of the Investigations program. A modernization
analysis has started on the Personnel Investigations Processing System
(PIPS) which is the case management system used to process all
background investigations. An imaging system continues to be piloted
which will allow for the electronic delivery and storage of case papers.
The e-QIP system continues to be deployed in federal agencies and
provides agencies with the ability to remotely enter and transmit case
papers when requesting a background investigation. Ultimately, these
types of technical initiatives will improve the conducting of
investigations and granting of clearances.
OPM continues to work together with the Office of Management and
Budget and other stakeholders to meet various requirements concerning
the investigative and security clearance programs that were outlined by
the IRTPA. Some of the IRTPA requirements include: 1) ensuring
reciprocity of security clearances and access determinations; 2)
creating a database on security clearances; and 3) evaluating the use of
available technology in clearance investigations and adjudication.
The Center for Leadership Capacity Services (CLCS) conducts
residential and nonresidential programs for Federal executives and
managers to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of Federal
programs, and provides on-line training for employees at all levels.
CLCS operates three leadership development centers serving government
managers and executives
[[Page 1006]]
from GS-11 to SES. CLCS courses are designed to fit the long term career
development path of emerging federal leaders. These open enrollment
courses are accredited and can be applied to college level degree
programs. In addition, CLCS offers custom-designed leadership programs
for individual agencies and also for communities of professional
interest. Moreover, CLCS develops and delivers leadership candidate
development and succession planning programs, including the Presidential
Management Fellows program, and consulting services for leading
organizational change initiatives.

Summary of Budget Authority and Outlays
(in millions of dollars)
2006 actual 2007 est. 2008 est.
Enacted/requested:
Budget Authority............ 58,261 84,821 64,484

Outlays..................... 57,983 84,538 64,234
This fund: 1) pays annuities to retired employees or their
survivors; 2) makes refunds to separated employees for amounts withheld
and to beneficiaries of employees who died before retirement or before
annuities equaled the amount withheld; and 3) pays expenses of OPM for
administering the program.
The fund covers two Federal civilian retirement systems: the Civil
Service Retirement System (CSRS) and the Federal Employees' Retirement
System (FERS).
CSRS is basically a defined benefit plan, covering Federal employees
hired prior to 1984. CSRS participants do not participate in the Social
Security system. FERS is a three-tiered pension program that uses Social
Security as a base, provides an additional basic benefit, and includes a
thrift savings plan. FERS covers employees hired after 1983 and formerly
CSRS-covered employees who elected to join FERS.
The Budget includes funding for legislation which would correct
benefit inequities, simplify program administration, and reduce improper
payments. The legislation would specifically include technical changes
and clarification in the calculation of retirement annuities. These
improvements would be focused on civil service retirees also receiving
military disability retirement, individuals with part-time service
retiring under CSRS, and the authorization for employees to contribute
bonus pay to their TSP. The Budget also includes funding for a
legislative proposal to transition from non-foreign cost of living
allowances (COLA) to locality pay for employees working in non-foreign
areas. This will result in increased retirement pay for affected
employees when they retire, since locality pay is creditable for
retirement. OPM will also continue working with the Department of the
Treasury to submit legislation to revise an existing exception to the
Right to Financial Privacy Act to allow OPM to trace and recover
retirement payments sent electronically to the wrong account. The Budget
also includes a proposal that the United States Patent and Trademark
Office (PTO) will fund the full cost for retirement benefits for PTO's
employees covered under the Civil Service Retirement System.

This display combines FEHB fund and the Retired Employees Health
Benefits (REHB) fund.
The FEHB fund provides for the cost of health benefits for: 1)
active employees; 2) employees who retired after June 1960, or their
survivors; 3) those annuitants transferred from the REHB program as
authorized by Public Law 93-246; and 4) the related expenses of OPM in
administering the program.
The REHB fund, created by the Retired Federal Employees Health
Benefits Act of 1960, provides for: 1) the cost of health benefits for
retired employees and survivors who enroll in a Government-sponsored
uniform health benefits plan; 2) the contribution to retired employees
and survivors who retain or purchase private health insurance; and 3)
expenses of OPM in administering the program.
Budget program.--The balance of the FEHB fund is available for
payments without fiscal year limitation. Numbers of participants at the
end of each fiscal year are as follows:
2006 actual 2007 est. 2008 est.
Active employees.............. 2,169,470 2,159,000 2,157,000
Annuitants.................... 1,854,684 1,886,000 1,912,500
------------------------------------
Total..................... 4,024,154 4,045,000 4,070,000
====================================
In determining a biweekly subscription rate to cover program costs,
one percent is added for administrative expenses and three percent is
added for a contingency reserve held by OPM for each carrier. OPM is
authorized to transfer unused administrative reserve funds to the
contingency reserve.
The REHB fund is available without fiscal year limitation. The
amounts contributed by the Government are paid into the fund from annual
appropriations. The number of participants at the end of each fiscal
year are as follows:
2006 actual 2007 est. 2008 est.
Uniform plan.................. 371 304 249
Private plans................. 931 763 626
------------------------------------
Total..................... 1,302 1,067 875
====================================
Financing.--The funds are financed by: 1) withholdings from active
employees and annuitants; 2) agency contributions for active employees;
3) Government contributions for annuitants appropriated to OPM; and 4)
contributions made by the United States Postal Service in accordance
with the provisions of Public Law 101-508 and Public Law 103-66.
Funds made available to carriers but not used to pay claims in the
current period are carried forward as special reserves for use in
subsequent periods. OPM maintains a contingency reserve, funded by
employee and Government contributions, that may be used to defray future
cost increases or provide increased benefits. OPM makes payments to
carriers from this reserve whenever carrier-held reserves fall below
levels prescribed by OPM regulations or when carriers can demonstrate
good cause such as unexpected claims experience or variations from
expected community rates.
The Budget reflects savings from a proposed technical change to the
FEHB statute that will permit the programs Service Benefit Plan and
Indemnity Benefit Plan to offer more
[[Page 1010]]
than two coverage options and from a proposal to reduce the amount of
the Government contribution for new annuitants with fewer than 10 years
of Federal service. These and other cost-neutral proposals will be
transmitted separately. Finally, the Budget also proposes that the PTO
will fund the accruing costs associated with post-retirement health
benefits for PTO's employees.
