Description

Since 2001, Government Accountability Office (GAO) has designated strategic human capital management as a high-risk area because of the federal government's long-standing lack of a consistent approach to such management. In 2007, the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence (USD(I)) began developing a human capital system -- called the Defense Civilian Intelligence Personnel System (DCIPS -- to manage Dept. of Defense (DOD) civilian intelligence personnel. This report examined the extent to which DOD has (1) incorporated internal safeguards into DCIPS and monitored the implementation of these safeguards and (2) developed mechanisms to identify employee perceptions about DCIPS. The report analyzed guidance, interviewed appropriate officials, and conducted discussion groups with employees at select DOD components. At the end of this review, legislation was enacted that impacts, among other things, how DCIPS employees will be paid. Includes recommendations. Figures.
