Position Description Management
by Groundswell Consulting Group (US)
Description
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) mandates federal agencies to classify position descriptions (PDs) in order to hire qualified individuals. Currently, most agencies do not have an effective way to track their PDs or open new positions referencing their classified PDs. Furthermore, many agencies do not have a way to efficiently maintain their positions, determine and track vacancies, and execute hiring actions against those vacant positions. The lack of visibility leads to:
- Duplicate PDs and positions being created
- Unnecessary work by HR teams to classify PDs and positions that already exist
- Inability to track positions against approved fiscal year budgets
- Insufficient recruitment and selection processes resulting in talent gaps or hiring from a pool of less qualified candidates.
