This revolving fund provides for real property management and related activities, including operation, maintenance, and repair of federally owned buildings, and the construction of Federal buildings, courthouses, and land ports of entry. Expenses of the Federal Buildings Fund (FBF) are financed from rental charges assessed to occupants of General Services Administration (GSA)-controlled space. Rent assessments, by law, approximate commercial rates for comparable space and services. Rental income is augmented by appropriations to the Fund when new construction needs exceed the resources available for investment within the Fund.

The Budget requests $10,388 million in new obligational authority for the FBF. The Administration's proposal ensures that GSA spends at least at the level of anticipated rent that it collects from Federal departments and agencies in order to provide services to those customers.

Historically, the FBF has been permitted to spend at least what it collects from agencies to support leasing from the private sector, as well as maintenance, repairs, major renovations, and new construction to accommodate agency needs in buildings that GSA owns and operates. However, in several recent years, the FBF appropriations were significantly below the anticipated level of rent collections from agencies, denying GSA the ability to pursue an appropriately-sized capital program relative to the size of its portfolio. By restoring the principle that the FBF should be allowed to spend what it collects and pursuing a robust capital program, the Administration hopes to accomplish a number of policy goals: avoiding larger, longer-term capital costs associated with deferring maintenance of Federal facilities; improving efficiency at GSA-owned facilities; and realizing a smaller Federal footprint through improved building utilization.

Rental of Space.—This activity provides for the leasing of privately-owned buildings when federally owned space is not available. This includes space occupied by Federal agencies, including in U.S. Postal Service facilities. GSA provided 181 million square feet of rental space in 2019. GSA expects to provide 177 million square feet of rental space in 2020 and 178 million in 2021.

Building Operations.—The Building Operations program provides services for both federally owned and leased facilities as well as administration and management of all PBS real property programs. Of the total amount requested in support of Building Operations, the Building Services allocation funds services and cost increases for cleaning, utilities, maintenance, and building services; the Salaries and Expenses allocation supports Public Building Service (PBS) personnel costs excluding reimbursable FTE, PBS-specific IT applications and PBSs contribution to the WCF.

This account provides $10 billion to support a new Federal Capital Revolving Fund (FCRF) to finance federally-owned civilian real property projects. A robust discussion of the FCRF can be found in the Budget Process chapter of the Analytical Perspectives volume.

In summary, the FCRF will create a mechanism that is similar to a capital budget but operates within the traditional rules used for the Federal budget. Upon approval in an Appropriations Act, the revolving fund will transfer money to agencies to finance large-dollar real property purchases. Executing agencies will then be required to repay the fund in 15 equal annual amounts using discretionary appropriations.

As a result, purchases/construction/renovation of real property assets will no longer compete with annual operating and programmatic expenses for the limited funding available under tight discretionary caps. Instead, agencies will pay for real property over time as it is utilized. Repayments will be made from future appropriations, which will incentivize project selection based on highest mission need and return on investment, including future cost avoidance. The repayments will also replenish the revolving fund so that real property can continually be replaced as needed.

Asset Proceeds and Space Management Fund

For carrying out section 16(b) of the Federal Assets Sale and Transfer Act of 2016 (40 U.S.C. 1303 note), $31,000,000, to remain available until expended: Provided, That any proceeds from the sale of assets deposited in the Asset Proceeds and Space Management Fund shall remain available until expended and may be used for implementing the recommendations of the Public Buildings Reform Board.

This appropriation covers relocation costs involved in moving agencies from valuable underutilized property, targeted for public sale, to facilities determined to be more economically suitable to their needs. Relocation and disposal is considered when the benefit/cost ratio is at least 2:1. The sale of these valuable underutilized properties would provide significant revenue to the Treasury and would far outweigh the relocation costs involved.

No appropriation is requested for this program in 2021. The General Services Administration will solicit relocation proposals from agencies.

This mandatory appropriation provides for the efficient disposal of real property assets that no longer meet the needs of landholding Federal agencies. Fees of auctioneers, brokers, appraisers, and environmental consultants; surveying costs; costs of advertising; costs of environmental and historical preservation services; highest and best use of property studies; property utilization studies; deed compliance inspections; and other disposal costs are paid out of receipts from disposals in each year. GSA leverages the expertise of auctioneers and brokers familiar with local markets to accelerate the disposal of surplus real property.

The Administration proposes to provide GSA with broadened authorities related to the disposal of excess property. The expanded authority will allow GSA to assist agencies in identifying and preparing real property prior to the agency declaring a property excess. Currently, agencies do not always complete these types of activities because agencies must fund the activities from limited resources. This expanded authority will help to reduce the Federal footprint by providing the funding required to assess and prepare potential excess properties for disposal, the funds will then be recovered from the proceeds of sale.

The Acquisition Services Fund (ASF) is a full cost recovery revolving fund financing nearly all operations of the Federal Acquisition Service (FAS). FAS also includes organizations that are funded out of the Operating Expense appropriation, the Transportation Audits warrant, and the Federal Citizen Services Fund (FCSF). The ASF provides for the acquisition of information technology (IT) solutions, telecommunications, motor vehicles, supplies, and a wide range of goods and services for Federal agencies. This fund recovers costs through fees charged to Federal agencies for services rendered and commodities provided.

The ASF is authorized by section 321 of title 40, United States Code, which requires the Administrator to establish rates to be charged to agencies receiving services that: 1) recover costs; and 2) provide for the cost and capital requirements of the ASF. The ASF is authorized to retain earnings to cover the cost of replacing fleet vehicles (Replacement Cost Pricing), maintain supply inventories adequate for customer needs, and fund anticipated operating needs specified by the Cost and Capital Plan.

The ASF now consists of six business portfolios and one strategic initiative:

Assisted Acquisition Services (AAS).—Assists agencies in making informed procurement decisions and serves as a center of acquisition excellence for the Federal community. AAS provides acquisition, technical, and project management services related to information technology and professional services at the best value.

Office of General Supplies and Services Categories (GS&S).—Provides partner agencies with general products such as furniture, office supplies, and hardware products. GS&S centralizes acquisitions on behalf of the Government to strategically procure goods and services at reduced costs, while ensuring regulatory compliance for partner agency procurements. This portfolio also provides personal property disposal services to partner agencies, which are partially funded by the Operating Expenses appropriation.

Information Technology Category (ITC).—Makes available IT and telecommunications products and services to Federal, State, and local agencies. ITC provides access to IT services, hardware, software, telecommunications, and IT security services.

Professional Services & Human Capital Categories (PSHC).—Provides Federal agencies with professional and human capital services contract solutions, including payment solutions through the GSA SmartPay program.

Technology Transformation Services (TTS).—Partners with Government agencies to transform the way they build, buy, and share technology. They use modern methodologies and technologies to help Federal agencies improve the public's experience with the Government. TTS helps agencies make their services more accessible, efficient, and effective with modern applications, platforms, processes, personnel, and software solutions

Travel, Transportation, and Logistics Categories (TTL).—Provides partner agencies with a broad scope of services which includes travel, transportation, and relocation services; motor vehicle acquisition; and motor vehicle fleet leasing services.

Integrated Award Environment (IAE).—IAE is an initiative that is run out of the Office of Systems Management that provides centralized technology supporting a modernized Federal award environment. IAE works across the Federal Government in collaboration with governance groups of interagency experts by leveraging technology to manage the collection and display of standardized data that is critical to maintaining the integrity of federal awarding processes. The IAE leverages technology to reduce burden on awardees and provide immediate and reliable access to data and information federal officials need to plan for, award, and manage taxpayer dollars efficiently and effectively. Analysis and use of data in the IAE environment has supported category management savings of over $27 billion since 2017 and elimination of over 31,000 duplicate contracts while exceeding small business contracting goals. Ongoing modernization considers the need for removing friction in processes, providing self-service tools to leverage data as a strategic asset, and exploring innovation to open more data while reducing taxpayer costs. In alignment with the IAE modernization work in 2020, the program is working to refine its financial model to better reflect a modernized award environment.

The Technology Modernization Fund (TMF) is a revolving fund that finances Federal agencies' transition from antiquated legacy information technology (IT) systems to more effective, secure, and modern IT platforms. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 115–91), Subtitle G—Modernizing Government Technology (MGT), Section 1078 established the TMF and Technology Modernization Board (Board). The TMF is administered by the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) in accordance with recommendations made by the inter-agency TMF Board established by the MGT Act. The Board is chaired by the Administrator of the Office of Electronic Government and comprises six additional members, delineated in the Act, possessing expertise in IT development, financial management, cybersecurity and privacy, and acquisition.

In accordance with OMB guidance, the Board rigorously reviews agency modernization proposals and recommends projects for funding, including identifying opportunities to migrate multiple legacy systems to common platforms; ensuring prioritization of projects with the greatest Government-wide impact and probability of success; and improvements to the security of critical IT infrastructure. As TMF funding is allocated to priority projects across the Federal Government, it is subsequently replenished by incremental agency repayments to the Fund for amounts transferred. This includes the cost of any services or work performed related to the administration of the Fund, ensuring that the TMF is self-sustaining and can continue to support modernization projects well beyond the initial infusions of capital. The GSA Administrator, in consultation with the Board and Director of OMB, is responsible for continuous oversight of funded projects to ensure success. Additionally, technical experts are paired with specific projects on a reimbursable basis to help execute quickly and successfully. All funding will be provided in increments based on agile development practices and is subject to agencies achieving planned project milestones.

Ultimately, retiring or modernizing vulnerable and inefficient legacy IT systems will make agencies more secure and save money. Absent immediate action, the cost to operate and maintain legacy systems will continue to grow while security vulnerabilities and other risks will remain unresolved. As a means of addressing these pressing challenges, the TMF is an important step in changing the way the Federal Government manages its IT portfolio.

The Board has reviewed more than three dozen project proposals from Federal agencies requesting more than $446 million and has approved nine modernization projects totaling $88 million in project awards.

The Civilian Board of Contract Appeals (CBCA) provides the prompt and efficient resolution of various disputes involving Federal executive branch agencies. The CBCA adjudicates contract disputes under the Contract Disputes Act (CDA) between Government contractors and all civilian executive agencies other than the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the United States Postal Service, the Postal Rate Commission, and the Tennessee Valley Authority. Resolving CDA disputes can be accomplished by holding a hearing, deciding on the record or achieving settlement through alternative dispute resolution (ADR). The CBCA judges will hold a hearing or engage in ADR in the CBCAs offices or they will travel, at the CBCAs expense, to a mutually agreed upon location.

The President's Budget proposes the transfer of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Office of Inspector General (OIG) to the General Services Administration Office of Inspector General. The proposal, contingent upon enactment of authorizing legislation, envisions a consolidated Office of Inspector General with a total budgetary authority of $103 million.

This appropriation funds the OPM OIG's efforts to protect the integrity of OPM programs and operations. The OPM OIG's audits, investigations, evaluations, and administrative sanctions program serve to prevent and detect fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement. The OPM OIG's 2021 Budget request reflects the proposed merger of OPM and the General Services Administration (GSA), consistent with OMB's Delivering Government Solutions in the 21st Century: Reform Plan and Reorganization Recommendations.

The OPM OIG's Office of Audits conducts audits of OPM programs and operations. The Office of Audits issued 36 audit reports in 2019, with questioned costs totaling over $30 million. The majority of the Office of Audits' work involves the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP) through audits of the health insurance carriers and the pharmacy benefit managers that contract with OPM. In addition, the Office of Audits focuses on other key OPM benefits programs, including the Federal retirement program, the Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance Program, the Federal Employee Dental and Vision Insurance Program, the Federal Long Term Care Insurance Program, and the Federal Flexible Spending Accounts. The Office of Audits also audits OPM revolving fund programs and operations, and is responsible for the oversight of the OPM financial statement audit, which is conducted by an independent public accounting firm.

The OPM OIG conducts information systems audits of general and application controls and security within OPM information systems and programs as well as audits of OPM contractor systems, such as those of FEHBP insurance carriers. One key OPM OIG project is to provide ongoing oversight of OPM's information technology (IT) modernization efforts, including a data center consolidation and potential mainframe migrations. The OPM OIG's longstanding expertise in these areas has been recognized and endorsed by the Congress. The OPM OIG's continued oversight of this project is essential to the IT security posture of OPM, its systems, and the highly sensitive data contained in these systems.

The OPM OIG's Office of Investigations detects and investigates improper and illegal activities involving OPM programs, personnel, and operations. The Office of Investigations is a statutory Federal law enforcement organization, with the authority to carry firearms, issue subpoenas, and to seek and execute both search and arrest warrants. In 2019, the Office of Investigations' activities led to 94 arrests, 130 indictments and informations, and 83 criminal convictions, and resulted in over $39 million in recoveries to the OPM trust funds. In addition, the Office of Investigations partnered with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and other Federal, State, and local law enforcement agencies to investigate and collect fines, penalties, and forfeitures to the Federal Government totaling over $1.3 billion. Based on evidence gathered during its investigations, the Office of Investigations pursues appropriate remedies, including referrals to the DOJ for criminal prosecutions or civil action, and/or referral to OPM or to the FEHBP Administrative Sanctions program. The Office of Investigations also investigates allegations of fraud against OPM programs, including the FEHBP and the Civil Service and Federal Employees Retirement Systems. When appropriate, the Office of Investigations conducts investigations of OPM internal operations, whistleblower complaints, and employee and contractor misconduct.

The Office of Evaluations conducts studies of OPM programs and operations from a broad, issue-based perspective. The Office of Evaluations combines the scoping and planning of traditional audits with the more reactive nature of investigations in order to respond quickly to high priority issues requiring immediate attention. Evaluations focus on program effectiveness and rely on in-depth analysis using multiple sources of data. Our evaluations typically involve multiple objectives, have complex or very little criteria, and may involve more than one OPM component. The Office of Evaluations conducts its work according to the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency's Quality Standards for Inspections and Evaluation (January 2012) by following the policies and processes detailed therein. The Office of Evaluations has issued eight final reports since its inception in 2015. The evaluations conducted by this small but adaptable office have covered a variety of OPM programs and operations, resulting in recommendations that minimized inefficiencies and corrected vulnerabilities in OPM's Retirement Services Program, the reporting of OPM's conference spending, OPM's oversight of the Federal Workers Compensation Program, and OPM's Senior Executive Service and Performance Management Office.

The OPM OIG's Administrative Sanctions program debars and suspends health care providers whose loss of licensure or conduct may pose a health and safety risk to FEHBP enrollees and their families or a financial threat to the FEHBP. In 2019, the OPM OIG was responsible for 875 suspensions and debarments of health care providers within the FEHBP.

Finally, the OPM OIG oversees activities of the OPM Revolving Fund. In January 2014, the Congress passed the OPM IG Act (Public Law 113–80). This legislation provided the necessary funding for the OPM OIG to audit, investigate, and provide other oversight of the activities of OPM revolving fund programs and operations, which included the National Background Investigations Bureau (NBIB). Pursuant to Executive Order 13869 and Section 925 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018, NBIB functions transferred to the Department of Defense on October 1, 2019. Although NBIB functions have transitioned to what is now the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA), the OPM OIG is maintaining responsibility for completing NBIB legacy oversight work—criminal investigations opened prior to October 1, 2019, as well as an audit of NBIB's 2019 financials for the OPM Audit and an audit of the broader information technology environment that will host NBIB's systems beyond October 1, 2019. To ensure the continuity of law enforcement investigations and audits, the OPM OIG is working on establishing an interagency agreement that will provide the necessary funding required to complete the NBIB legacy oversight work.

The Acquisition Workforce Training Fund (AWTF) is a permanent, indefinite appropriation providing a stable source of funds to train the Federal civilian acquisition workforce. The AWTF is financed through a credit of five percent of the fees collected from non-Department of Defense activities by the General Services Administration (GSA) and other civilian agencies that manage Government-wide Acquisition Contracts (GWACs), Multiple Award Schedules (MAS) contracts, and other multi-agency contracts. Receipts are available for expenditure in the fiscal year collected, in addition to the two following fiscal years. The AWTF is managed by GSA's Federal Acquisition Institute (FAI) in consultation with the White House Office of Federal Procurement Policy, and the FAI Board of Directors.

The Federal Citizen Services Fund (FCSF) enables public access and engagement with Government through an array of public and agency facing products and programs. The FCSF initiatives help individuals, businesses, other governments, and the media to easily interact with Federal information, services, benefits, and business opportunities. The Fund supports agency facing programs that drive Government-wide transformation efforts to secure digital Government through shared services, platforms and solutions. The fund also provides technical expertise to agencies to improve their operations and the public's experience with Government in support of the President's Management Agenda and Cross-Agency Priority Goals. The FCSF supports extensive communities of practice that drive adoption and improvement of digital services, and help agencies develop and share best practices and training to address tactical needs. GSA will continue to use the FCSF to support initiatives that drive innovation in Government operations and improve the transparency, efficiency, and effectiveness of Federal operations and quality of Government services.

The FCSF funds a portion of the authorized activities of the Technology Transformation Services (TTS), a division within GSA's Federal Acquisition Service. The FCSF appropriation provides for the salaries and expenses of staff and programs authorized by 40 U.S.C. 323 and 44 U.S.C. 3604. Other TTS programs not funded by FCSF are funded on a reimbursable basis by the Acquisition Services Fund (ASF). The ASF-funded portion of TTS includes the Office of 18F, the Office of Acquisitions, the Centers of Excellence, and the Presidential Innovation Fellows Program.

The Office of Personnel Management's (OPM) mission is to lead and serve the Federal Government in enterprise human resources management by delivering policies and services to achieve a trusted, effective civilian workforce. OPM will lead the way in making the Federal Government the model employer by being the model agency in implementing best practices, leading by example, and becoming the change we want to see. The 2021 Budget will enable OPM to integrate with the General Services Administration while continuing to support Federal agencies in a manner that furthers merit system principles and administers employee benefit programs for Federal employees.

The functions and objectives of OPM's major organizations are:

Employee Services.—Develops human resource (HR) policies for Executive Branch agencies and provides policy direction and leadership in designing, developing, and promulgating Government-wide HR systems and programs for recruitment, staffing, classification, pay, leave, training, performance management and recognition, employee development, management of executive resources, work/life/wellness programs, and labor and employee relations.

Merit System Accountability and Compliance.—Ensures Federal agency HR programs are effective, efficient, and meet merit system principles and related civil service requirements by working directly with other Federal agency Chief Human Capital Officers, Accountability Program Managers, HR managers and specialists. It improves agency programs that are not in compliance with Federal HR policies and regulation; and improves the effectiveness and efficiency of the agency programs to meet agency mission and objectives.

Retirement Services Program.—Administers the Civil Service Retirement System and the Federal Employees Retirement System, serving Federal retirees and survivors who receive monthly annuity payments. Retirement Services Program will continue to focus on making initial eligibility determinations, adjudicating new retirements, initiating survivor benefit payments, and calculating post retirement changes due to disability and death.

Healthcare & Insurance.—Administers the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program, the Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance Program, the Federal Flexible Spending Account Program, the Federal Long Term Care Insurance Program, and the Federal Employee Dental and Vision Insurance Program. These programs provide a complete suite of insurance benefits for more than eight million Federal employees, retirees, and their families.

Government Payment for Annuitants, Employees Health Benefits

(Legislative proposal, subject to PAYGO)

The President's 2021 Budget includes a package of proposals that will improve program efficiency, introduce more accountability and increase competition and choice: 1) Medical Liability Reform would potentially reduce the costs of medical liability and lower insurance premiums of the Federal Employee Health Benefit (FEHB) Program; and 2) modifying the Federal Government contribution rate for premiums to base it on a plan's score from the FEHB Plan Performance Assessment would improve healthcare quality and affordability within the program. The enactment of the proposals in 2021 will not begin to impact program financials until 2023.

The Payment to the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund consists of an appropriation and a permanent indefinite authorization to pay the Government's share of retirement costs. The payment is made directly from the general fund of the U.S. Treasury into the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund and is in addition to appropriated funds that will be contributed from agency budgets.

Current Appropriation Payment of Government share of retirement costs.—The Civil Service Retirement Amendments of 1969 provides for an annual appropriation to amortize, over a 30-year period, all increases in Civil Service Retirement System costs resulting from acts of the Congress granting new or liberalized benefits, extensions of coverage, or pay raises, exclusive of the effects of cost-of-living adjustments. The Office of Personnel Management notifies the Secretary of the Treasury each year of such sums as may be necessary to carry out these provisions.

Permanent Indefinite Authorization.—Transfers for interest on static unfunded liability and payment of military service annuities. The Civil Service Retirement Amendments of 1969 also provides permanent, indefinite authorization for the Secretary of the Treasury to transfer, on an annual basis, an amount equal to five percent interest on the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund's current statutory unfunded liability, calculated based on static economic assumptions, and annuity disbursements attributable to credit for military service.

Payments for Spouse Equity.—The permanent, indefinite authorization also includes a payment which provides for the Secretary of the Treasury to transfer an amount equal to the annuities granted to eligible former spouses of annuitants who died between September 1978 and May 1985 who did not elect survivor coverage.

Financing.—The unfunded liability of new and increased annuity benefits becoming effective on or after October 20, 1969, and annuities under special Acts to be credited to the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund, may be paid out of the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund.

This account contains reserve resources required under the Office of Personnel Management's (OPM) contract with the administrator of the Flexible Benefits program. This account is funded by payments from Federal agencies based on the participation of their employees in the program and from net forfeitures, as authorized by the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004 (P.L. 108–136). Account assets are available to indemnify the administrator when benefit payments exceed contributions, for program enhancements, and for OPM's administration of the program. The reserve account balance currently exceeds that deemed necessary to defray reasonable risk, so account balances are also being used to mitigate Federal agencies' contractual costs for the program. Cost mitigation is projected to continue at least through 2021.

The Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (P.L. 109–435) created the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund to help fully fund the United States Postal Service's (USPS) retiree (annuitant) health benefits liabilities.

This account receives from USPS: 1) the pension savings provided to USPS by the Postal Civil Service Retirement System Funding Reform Act of 2003 (P.L. 108–18) that were held in escrow during 2006; 2) payments defined within Public Law 109–435, and modified by Public Law 111–68, to begin the liquidation of USPS's unfunded liability for post-retirement health benefits; and 3) beginning in 2017, payments for the actuarial cost of USPS contributions for the post-retirement health benefits for its current employees. This account also receives any surplus resources of the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund that are not needed to finance future retirement benefits under the Civil Service Retirement System to current or former employees of USPS that are attributable to civilian employment with USPS.

As a result of this health benefits financing system, beginning in 2017, USPS ceased to pay annual premium costs for its post-1971 current annuitants directly to the Employees and Retired Employees Health Benefits Fund. Instead, these premium payments are paid from balances of this account. Payments for a proportion of the premium costs of USPS annuitants' pre-1971 service continues to be paid by the general fund of the Treasury through the Government Payment for Annuitants, Employees Health Benefits account.

Under the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act, USPS was required to make a stream of payments set in statute through 2016 toward paying down retiree health benefit unfunded liabilities, as well as pay annual Federal Employees Health Benefits Program premiums for current retirees. Also under current law, starting in 2017, USPS must pay the per capita accruing costs (or normal cost) to fund future retiree health benefits of current employees and a 40-year amortization of the remaining unfunded liability for current retirees. The Budget reflects that USPS defaulted on the statutorily required payments since 2012. These defaults are not factored into the 40-year amortization schedule starting in 2017, but remain on USPS's financial statements in each year as outstanding liabilities. The 2021 Budget assumes USPS will continue to default on the statutorily required amortization payments in 2020 and beyond, as well as not financing the per capita accruing cost.

Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund

(Legislative proposal, subject to PAYGO)

Outlays from the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund would decrease under proposals in the 2021 Budget that impact the cost and cost sharing structure of health insurance in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP). If these proposals are enacted in 2021, they will begin to financially impact the FEHBP, and thus the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund in 2023.

Budget Program.—The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is authorized to use revolving funds without fiscal year limitations to conduct investigations, training, and other functions that OPM is authorized or required to perform on a reimbursable basis. OPM operates several programs, which are funded by fees or reimbursement payments collected from other agencies and other payments. These included the National Background Investigations Bureau (NBIB), which operated OPM's background investigations program, and currently include the Human Resources Solutions (HRS), under which OPM provides services, either directly or through private sector partners, on various human resources issues. The following programs are currently authorized to use revolving funds: Suitability Executive Agent (SuitEA), Human Resources Solutions (HRS)—including USAJOBS, Enterprise Human Resources Data Warehouse (EHRIDW), Human Resources Line of Business (HRLoB), Human Resources Tools and Technology (HRTT), and Credit Monitoring and Identity Protection Services.

National Background Investigations Bureau.—NBIB provided personnel background investigative services on a fee-for-service basis to assist its Federal agency customers in determining individuals' suitability and fitness for Federal civilian, military, and contract employment, eligibility for logical and physical access to agency systems and facilities, and eligibility for access to classified national security information or to hold a national security sensitive position. Effective 2020, NBIB functions moved from OPM to the Department of Defense (DOD). The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2018 (P.L. 115–91), section 925, stated that the Secretary of Defense has the authority to conduct all types of background investigations for DOD personnel and mandated that, not later than October 1, 2020, the Secretary of Defense shall commence carrying out its background investigations implementation plan developed pursuant to 951(a)(1) of the 2017 NDAA (P.L. 114–328). In June 2018, the Administration released Delivering Government Solutions in the 21st Century: Reform Plan and Reorganization Recommendations, which identified its intent to keep the NBIB background investigation mission together, subsequently realigning the entire program from OPM to DOD. Executive Order 13869, released on April 24, 2019, formally transferred responsibility for the function to DOD. However, as part of the transition, DOD has entered into Economy Act agreements to "buy back" OPM's financial management systems and expertise, NBIB's existing background investigations systems, hardware and infrastructure, and facilities and procurement support. OPM, DOD, and OMB, among other stakeholders, are working collaboratively to ensure continued efficient and effective delivery of high quality background investigation products and services to the Federal Government during 2020 and into 2021. In 2020, financial activity of NBIB in this account represents work performed to complete investigation requests received prior to October 1, 2019.

Suitability Executive Agent.—SuitEA was established as a distinct program office within OPM in December 2016 to strengthen the effectiveness of suitability vetting across the Government by providing a focal point within OPM for leadership, process improvement, and modernization while continuing to perform adjudicative operations benefiting Federal agencies. SuitEA carries out its responsibilities through a policy office responsible for business transformation and modernization of the Government-wide suitability program, supported by an adjudicative operations staff that takes Government-wide action to promote the efficiency and protect the integrity of Federal agencies' operations, and an oversight team that conducts assessments of Federal agencies' performance and makes recommendations for improvement. SuitEA led the finalization of the roadmap for a transformed Government-wide approach to vetting, developed with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Performance Accountability Council, a part of the Trusted Workforce 2.0 initiative. The roadmap will be implemented in 2021 and will include implementation of transformational outcome-based investigative and adjudicative standards, as well as training standards and procedures for the new supporting Enterprise architecture. SuitEA also develops and offers reimbursable, suitability training programs that are compliant with the National Training Standards for Suitability Adjudicators. SuitEA operates a suitability hotline and email box to provide customer support on technical and interpretative matters related to suitability. As the background investigation systems are rebuilt or built new by the Department of Defense, and OPM enhances or builds out Human Resource systems, SuitEA will provide requirements to meet the needs of security, suitability, and credentialing (SSC) programs, promote accessibility to shared service offerings and improve information flow to meet the needs of Federal agencies. SuitEA does not anticipate that any of the afore-mentioned activities will cease due to the move of NBIB-related work to the Department of Defense. These activities and functions will continue to be necessary in 2020 and thereafter to carry out the responsibilities of the Suitability Executive Agent.

Human Resources Solutions.—HRS is a reimbursable services organization offering a complete range of tailored and standardized human resources products and services designed to meet the unique and dynamic needs of the Federal Government. HRS will continue to provide customer agencies with innovative, specialized support such as expert examining, high-level strategic staffing, recruitment and branding, and complete human resources lifecycle solutions designed to attract, assess, and build a high-quality Federal workforce and meet the diverse hiring needs of the Federal Government. USAJOBS is located within HRS. USAJOBS comprises three key capabilities: 1) the Federal Career Portal; 2) the Agency Talent Portal; and 3) Open Opportunities. HRS is comprised of five program areas operating under two major reimbursable offerings (Government provided and third-party contractor). These program areas are as follows: the Center for Leadership Development, the Federal Staffing Center, HR Strategy and Evaluation Solutions, Human Capital Industry Solutions, and the Center for Management Services (HRS Support Programs).

The Human Resources Tools and Technology Program Management Office (HRS IT PMO or PMO) provides technology support in the form of information technology (IT) systems development and hosting, supplying both internal and external customers a wide variety of information technology services in the human resources arena. The PMO delivers leading-edge, innovative, high quality human resource information technology products and services that contribute to organizational effectiveness. The PMO is comprised of three lines of business (LOBs) including OPM's Human Resources Solutions, Employee Self Service Systems, and other OPM Services. All of its lines of business contain IT systems that span the HR life cycle and allow the program to sustain itself financially.

HRLOB provides an essential leadership role in the consolidation of agency personnel action processing, benefits management, and payroll systems into HRLOB Shared Service Centers.

The Enterprise Human Resources Integration Program's Data Warehouse (EHRIDW) is the Government's premier source for integrated Federal workforce information. The system currently collects, integrates, and publishes data for 2.0 million Title 5 Executive Branch employees on a bi-weekly basis. EHRIPDW is comprised of two programs, the electronic Official Personnel Folder (eOPF) and the Enterprise Human Resources Integration Data Warehouse (EHRIDW). These two programs support the E-Government initiative designed to leverage the benefits of information technology. The goal of these two programs is to streamline and automate the collection, aggregation, and sharing of Federal employee HR, payroll, and training information Government-wide. The investment broadly supports the OPM mission by enabling the agency to provide the Federal HR community with access to employee data to improve workforce planning for hiring, skills development, retention strategies and Government-wide policy.

The Credit Monitoring and Identity Protection Services (CM IPS) provides a comprehensive suite of credit and identity monitoring, identity theft insurance, and identity restoration services. These services are congressionally mandated as they support provision of comprehensive, complimentary identity protection coverage pursuant to P.L. 115–31, Section 633 of Division E through 2026. Credit Monitoring costs consist of contract, operational, management, and administrative costs.

Inspector General Activities.—The OPM IG Act (the Act) (P.L. 113–80) extends permitted uses of the Revolving Fund to include financing the cost of audits, investigations, and oversight activities of OPM's Office of the Inspector General. The Act limits the amount of revolving fund resources available to the Office of the Inspector General each year to 0.33 percent of the total budgetary authority estimated for the fund in the year.

Financing.—OPM's Revolving Fund account gains spending authority from agreements with other Federal agencies who are seeking the following services: HRS provides a multitude of HR services to other Federal agencies, which include consulting services, training, staffing programs, vendor management, and administrative law judge services. Individual pricing and fee structures for HRS offerings differ because the business models for each of its products and services vary. NBIB offers its Federal customers investigations based on five tiers with an Expandable Focused Investigation model at each tier. The newly established tiered approach increases transparency and clarity into the type of investigation being completed. The price of each type of investigation varies based on the estimated fieldwork and time it will take to complete. Prices are determined and justified using a cost allocation model. The significant cost drivers that impact pricing considerations include Federal and contracted investigative fieldwork, third-party search fees, the accuracy of workload projections, policy changes, and major infrastructure upgrades. SuitEA and CredEA funding is factored into NBIB pricing and budgeted by the background investigation customers. EHRD provides two primary service offerings on a fee-for-service basis: the eOPF, including deployment and hosting services, and a suite of analytical tools enabling agencies to perform workforce analysis and forecasting. EHRD provides customized eOPF systems to other agencies at additional cost, in which the customer pays for ongoing eOPF maintenance. The pricing structure for eOPF maintenance is a fixed price per license (i.e., electronic folder) and is based on the number of active users at the customer agency. The HRLOB has established public and private Shared Service Centers to provide technology solutions to support multiple agencies with HR IT and HR services and is financed in part by agency contributions from partner agencies. Credit Monitoring has two funding sources for this program. OPM collects annually from the largest Federal agencies via an Interagency Agreement (IAA) based on a proportional allocation of total program cost. Additionally, fees are collected by the Enterprise Human Resource Integration (EHRI) program as part of the eOPF rates charged to agencies to fund the CM IPS program.

Operating Results.—In 2019, OPM's Revolving Fund businesses revenue total was $2.667 billion and the expenses total was $2.076 billion which provided a net gain on operations of $591 million. The cumulative net position of the fund is a positive $1.029 billion.

The Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund (CSRDF) is the oldest and largest of the four trust funds administered by the Office of Personnel Management. The fund is financed and structured very differently from the other three trust funds. It is characterized by permanent indefinite budget authority. Budget authority is the authority to incur obligations and pay expenses which become available to an agency during any fiscal year. Once approved, permanent budget authority is permanently available for all future years. Indefinite budget authority is used when the precise amount of budget authority required cannot be forecast in advance and must thus be determined at some future point in time (e.g., when actual receipts and expenses become known).

The CSRDF covers two Federal civilian retirement systems: the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) established on May 22, 1920, and the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) established on June 6, 1986. The Retirement Fund is a single plan even though there are two different benefit tiers and funding methods. CSRS is largely a defined benefit plan, covering Federal employees hired prior to 1984. CSRS participants do not participate in the Social Security system. FERS is a three-tiered pension program that uses Social Security as a base, provides an additional basic benefit, and includes the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP). FERS covers employees hired after 1983 and formerly CSRS-covered employees who elected to join FERS.

The Budget proposes that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) continue to fund the full retirement benefits cost for PTO's employees covered under CSRS.

Financing.—CSRS has been financed under a statutory funding method passed by the Congress in 1969. This funding method is based on the static economic assumptions of no future inflation, no future General Schedule salary increases, and a 5.0 percent interest rate. Under CSRS, regular employees contribute 7.0 percent of pay. Law enforcement officers, firefighters, and congressional employees contribute an extra 0.5 percent of pay, and members of the Congress an extra 1.0 percent of pay. Non-United States Postal Service (USPS) agencies match the employee contributions. Also under the static funding method for CSRS, the Treasury pays interest on any static unfunded liabilities that are not being financed by USPS. The Treasury also makes payments to amortize, over a 30-year period, any increases in the static unfunded liability due to salary increases for non-USPS (non-Postal) employees that occurred during the year, and pays for the cost of any benefits attributable to military service for both Postal and non-Postal employees that were paid out during the year.

FERS is funded under a dynamic entry age normal funding method. Employees and agencies together contribute the full amount of the dynamic normal cost rate. The normal cost rate is for the defined benefit plan only, and does not include the cost of Social Security or the TSP. FERS regular employees contribute a percentage of salary that is equal to the contribution rate for CSRS employees—7.0 percent, as set forth above, less the 6.2 percent tax rate under the Old-Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance portion of Social Security. Under FERS, the dynamic normal cost rates are as follows: Regular FERS non-Postal employees hired before 2013, the rate is 16.8 percent of pay (employee's share of 0.8 percent and employer's share of 16.0 percent). Regular FERS Postal employees rate is 15.5 percent of pay (employee's share, 0.8 percent, and employer's share, 14.7 percent); Regular FERS non-Postal employees hired during 2013 (known as FERS RAE/Revised Annuity Employee), the rate is 17.3 percent of pay (employee's share of 3.1 percent and employer's share of 14.2 percent). FERS RAE Postal employees rate is 15.9 percent of pay (employee's share, 3.1 percent, and employer's share, 12.8 percent); the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 included a provision to increase the normal cost rate of employee's contribution to FERS for individuals hired after 2013 and to maintain the employer's contribution rate at its current normal cost rate. Any contributions in excess of the amount necessary to satisfy FERS normal cost percentage will be credited to the assets of the fund, thereby reducing the unfunded liability. Regular employees hired after 2013 (known as FERS FRAE/Further Revised Annuity Employee), the rate is 17.5 percent of pay (employee's share of 4.4 percent and employer's share of 14.2 percent , and less excess of 1.1 percent to be credited to the assets of the CSRDF). FERS FRAE Postal employees rate is 16.1 percent of pay (employee's share, 4.4 percent, and employer's share, 11.7 percent).

Effective 2021, there will be a change in the normal cost rates for Postal FERS Employee/Employer Contributions and non-Postal FERS Employer Contributions. For regular FERS non-Postal employees (other than RAE and FRAE), the normal cost rate will be 18.1 percent of pay (employee's share, 0.8 percent, and employer's share, 17.3 percent). Regular FERS Postal employees will be 16.5 percent of pay (employee's share, 0.8 percent, and employer's share, 15.7 percent). For FERS RAE non-Postal employees, the normal cost rate will be 18.6 percent of pay (employee's share, 3.1 percent, and employer's share, 15.5 percent). FERS RAE Postal employees will be 16.9 percent of pay (employee's share, 3.1 percent, and employer's share, 13.8 percent). For FERS FRAE non-Postal employees, the normal cost rate will be 18.8 percent of pay (employee's share, 4.4 percent, employer's share, 15.5 percent, and less excess of 1.1 percent to be credited to the assets of the CSRDF). FERS FRAE Postal employees will be 17.1 percent of pay (employee's share, 4.4 percent, and employer's share, 12.7 percent).

Under the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (P.L. 109–435), USPS must make annual amortization payments beginning in 2017 to reduce any unfunded liability (UFL) for its obligations under CSRS. These payments, along with similar amortization payments for UFL in FERS are paid to CSRDF.

The 2020 Budget proposes four legislative changes to the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund (CSRDF) generating Government-wide savings: 1) utilize a high-5 average salary instead of a high-3 in the computation of new Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) annuities; 2) eliminate the special annuity supplement for new FERS retirees who do not meet the Social Security minimum retirement age; 3) eliminate the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for FERS retirees and reduce the COLA for Civil Service Retirement System retirees by 0.5 percent; and 4) equalize the employee and employer share of contributions to FERS, changing contribution rates by one percent per year until contributions from the employer and employee shares combined reach the normal cost level. If enacted, these changes would reduce the amount of outlays from the CSRDF for annuity payments, and transfer more of the cost of financing these benefits to employees. In addition, the Budget proposes to provide new Federal term employees with a more generous TSP defined contribution plan, in lieu of participation in the FERS defined benefit plan.

This display combines the Federal Employees Health Benefit (FEHB) fund and the Retired Employees Health Benefits (REHB) fund. The FEHB fund provides for the cost of health benefits for: 1) active employees; 2) employees who retired after June 1960, or their survivors; 3) annuitants transferred from the REHB fund as authorized by Public Law 93–246; and 4) tribal organizations. The REHB fund, created by the Retired Federal Employees Health Benefits Act of 1960, provides for: 1) the cost of health benefits for retired employees and survivors who were enrolled in a Government-sponsored uniform health benefits plan; 2) the contribution to retired employees and survivors who retain or purchase private health insurance; and 3) expenses of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) in administering the program.

Budget program.—The balance of the FEHB fund is available for payments without fiscal year limitation. Numbers of participants at the end of each fiscal year are as follows:


2019 actual 2020 est. 2021 est.

Active employees 2,120,130 2,118,000 2,118,000
USPS active employees (non-add) 426,130 424,000 424,000

In determining a biweekly subscription rate to cover program costs, one percent is added for administrative expenses and three percent is added for a contingency reserve held by OPM for each carrier. OPM is authorized to transfer unused administrative reserve funds to the contingency reserve. The REHB fund is available without fiscal year limitation. The amounts contributed by the Government are paid into the fund from annual appropriations. The number of participants at the end of each fiscal year are as follows:


2019 actual 2020 est. 2021 est.

Uniform plan 49 40 33
Private plans 86 71 58



Total 135 111 91




Financing.—The funds are financed by: 1) withholdings from active employees and annuitants; 2) agency contributions for active employees; 3) Government contributions for annuitants appropriated to OPM; and 4) contributions made by the United States Postal Service in accordance with the provisions of Public Law 101–508. Funds made available to carriers but not used to pay claims in the current period are carried forward as special reserves for use in subsequent periods. OPM maintains a contingency reserve, funded by employee and Government contributions, which may be used to defray future cost increases or provide increased benefits. OPM makes payments to carriers from this reserve whenever carrier-held reserves fall below levels prescribed by OPM regulations or when carriers can demonstrate good cause such as unexpected claims experience or variations from expected community rates. The Budget proposes that the United States Patent and Trademark Office continue to fund the accruing costs associated with post-retirement health benefits for its employees.

Employees and Retired Employees Health Benefits Fund

(Legislative proposal, subject to PAYGO)

The 2021 Budget includes a package of proposals that will improve program efficiency, introduce more accountability and increase competition and choice: 1) Medical Liability Reform would potentially reduce the costs of medical liability and lower insurance premiums of the Federal Employee Health Benefit (FEHB) Program; and 2) modifying the Federal Government contribution rate for premiums to base it on a plan's score from the FEHB Plan Performance Assessment would improve healthcare quality and affordability within the program. The enactment of the proposals in 2021 will not begin to impact program financials until 2023.
