This indicator describes a major service that ES provides to its customer base via the HR Tower -- that being the timely processing of Personnel Action Requests (PARs) which are used to accommodate all categories of pay and non-pay related personnel changes for in-scope bureau employees. Examples include (but are not limited to) interim appointments, return-toduty, change-in-duty station, cash awards, relocation incentive, locality pay, and many others. The sources for these data are: Treasury HR system (HRConnect); NFC Payment system (PAYE and subsystems); ES ServiceNow system; and the ES Tableau Data.

This indicator reflects the requirement to maintain compliance and alignment with OMB initiatives, including the guiding principles reflected in the OMB system modernization requirements (split projects into smaller, simpler segments with clear deliverables; focus on most critical needs first; and provide ongoing, transparent project oversight) data center consolidation requirements, and cloud computing requirements (Infrastructure as a Service; Software as a Service). A Score of "1" indicates compliance. A Score of "0" indicates non-compliance. The data is a subjective rating based on the Department’s interactions with OMB, Treasury, and GSA regarding the modernization of the Department's financial, acquisition, and property management systems.

This indicator measures the number of the Department's acquisition workforce members receiving targeted training on innovative and underutilized procurement and program management techniques through the acquisition innovation lab (The Lab).
