The initial fiscal 2018 and 2019 reports were due to OPM by Dec. 30, 2016, followed by detailed justifications that were due on June 15, 2017. <br\/><br\/>But because of the Trump administration&#8217;s agency reorganization executive order, OPM extended the deadline for those justifications until Sept. 30.<br\/><br\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Given the substantial shifts that are expected because of both the executive order and the resulting reorganization plans due to the Office of Management and Budget at the end of the month,\u00a0OPM said agencies should have more time to craft their justifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The memo said that agencies looking for additional allocations must first consider the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Moving or requesting to convert existing allocations, as needed, to accomplish the agency\u2019s strategic mission and goals.<\/li><li>Filling at least 90 percent of the agency\u2019s existing allocations, based on the agencies\u2019 data within the Executive and Schedule C System (ESCS); the vacancy rate should not be greater than 10 percent.<\/li><li>Ensuring alignment of any request for additional allocations, or changes to current allocations, with the agency\u2019s own reform plan that will be due to OMB in support of the executive order. OMB will concurrently review and verify alignment between an agency\u2019s request relating to allocations and the agency\u2019s reform plan.<\/li><li>Agencies considering the elimination of programs or the use of workforce reduction flexibilities to address changes in budget or agency should refrain from requesting additional allocations.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;OPM will process all requests on a first-come, first-served basis,&#8221; the memo said. &#8220;If the agency determines in fiscal 2018, that additional changes are needed to its executive allocations based on their transformational changes, agencies may submit an out-of-cycle allocation request to OPM.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Officials added that any out-of-cycle requests would be completed in a first-come, first-serve basis after the biennial requests have been processed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Agencies filing allocation requests for their SES staff now get extra months to justify them.
