Budget Justification/Performance Plan

Foundation of the FY 2000
Annual Performance Plan

The foundation for our integrated FY 2000 Annual Performance Plan and Budget Justification can be found in Federal Human Resources Management for the 21st Century, OPM’s Strategic Plan for FY 1997 through FY 2002. The cornerstone for that plan is its mission statement and five related strategic goals:

 

OPM’s Strategic Mission Statement

As the leader in human resource management for the Executive branch of government, OPM develops policies, in cooperation with Federal agencies and other stakeholders, so that agencies can recruit, hire, and retain workforces best suited to their missions. OPM oversees the Government wide implementation of those policies so that agencies will uphold national values that are embodied in law — including merit principles and veterans’ preference. OPM manages Government wide systems that support agencies and their employees by administering retirement, insurance, and other benefit systems for Federal employees and annuitants. OPM also administers Government wide compensation systems and maintains automated information systems that are used to inform the public of Federal employment opportunities and are used to keep managers and the public informed about the nature and size of the current Federal workforce. OPM also provides high-quality, cost-efficient services to other agencies.

OPM’S STRATEGIC GOALS

Goal I. Provide policy direction and leadership to recruit and retain the Federal workforce required for the 21st Century.
Goal II. Protect and promote the merit-based civil service and the employee earned benefit programs through an effective oversight and evaluation program.
Goal III. Provide advice and assistance to help Federal agencies improve their human resources management programs to effectively operate within the economy, demographics and environment of the 21st Century.
Goal IV. Deliver high-quality, cost-effective human resources services to federal agencies, employees, annuitants and the public.
Goal V. Establish OPM as a leader in creating and maintaining a sound, diverse and cooperative work environment.
