DESCRIPTION

Under authority of 5 U.S.C. 1304, various Public Laws and Executive Orders, the Revolving Fund of the Office of Personnel Management provides financing on a reimbursable basis for a continuing cycle of services.

The services include: training for Federal managers and executives; testing of potential military inductees for the Department of Defense in those locations where it is cost-effective for OPM to do so; providing employment information; providing assessment services; automating other agencies' staffing systems; examining for vacancies when requested by an agency; providing technical assistance and general consultation services on all facets of human resources management; and the selection, coordination and development of Presidential Management Interns. The Investigations Service includes: National Agency Checks/National Agency Checks and Inquiries and background security investigations of individuals who are candidates for positions identified as critical-sensitive by the requesting agencies, or reinvestigations of individuals occupying positions identified as critical-sensitive.

Each program is operated at rates, established by OPM, which should be adequate to recover expenses over a reasonable period of time. Receipts derived from operations are, by law, available in their entirety for use of the fund without further action by Congress.

Budget Accomplishments

OPM reversed a 10-year trend of increasing deficits in its Revolving Fund by imposing tough management decisions, tighter financial controls across all programs, increased accountability and downsizing. In addition, OPM successfully privatized two major revolving fund programs, training and investigations including the creation of the Government’s first Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). These actions have resulted in the Revolving Fund continuing to be above the breakeven point at the end of FY 1998 after experiencing a $48.8 million deficit at the end of FY 1994.
