Fifteen steps to a complete human resource program

The National Performance Review called for a refocusing and revitalizing of mechanisms to assess human resource program effectiveness by relating such effectiveness to mission accomplishment. The traditional Personnel Management Evaluation (PME) Program used by many federal organizations, which emphasized regulatory and statutory conformance, did not fit this new paradigm. The Defense Contract Audit Agency's Human Resource Assessment Model analyzes the degree of achievement in Strategic Plan goal attainment, and, in so doing, serves as a direct measure of Agency mission accomplishment.
