FY 2022 Annual Performance Plan and Report - Major Management Priorities








  
  
    

  
      



Fiscal Year 2022
Released June, 2021

**Topics on this page:** Major Management Priorities

Major Management Priorities

In the previous administration, the Department identified four Major Management Priorities:

Moving to a 21st Century Workforce
	Restoring Market Forces
	Making HHS More Innovative and Responsive
	Generating Efficiencies through Streamlined ServicesBelow HHS has provided detailed information on its progress with each initiative, including performance goals, performance indicators, and milestones.

Moving to a 21st Century Workforce

*Supporting Initiative: Maximize Talent*

The Maximize Talent Initiative aimed to transform HHS's business processes and practices to meet modern-day human capital management and human resources operational challenges now and in the future.  Through the Maximize Talent efforts, the Initiative enhanced the Department's most important resource – its people.  The transformation focused on three primary goals:

Optimizing HR Service Delivery by exploring ways to standardize core HR processes and implementing more efficient, effective, customer-focused, and cost-effective service delivery models.
	Transforming the Employee Performance and Engagement Culture by taking steps to institutionalize an environment that empowers and engages employees to maximize their talents to their full potential and enhance our performance management program to motivate, reward, and recognize high performance.
	Modernizing Human Resources Information Technology Infrastructure by upgrading and integrating enterprise IT systems that support the workforce and increase the data available to inform management decision-making.Salient accomplishments under the Maximize Talent Initiative include:

Envisioned a culture of accountability and data-driven decision making to improve workforce conditions and took action to achieve that vision:
	HHS FEVS Employee Participation increased by 14.7 percentage points to 71.9 percent
		HHS Employee Engagement Index increased by 0.7 percentage points to 73.5 percent;
		Effective Communication Index increased by 0.8 percentage points to 71.2 percent; and
		Global Satisfaction increased by 0.5 percentage points to 71.7 percent.
	Implemented a simplified recruitment process in the District of Columbia Human Resources Center, which included sharing certificates with multiple managers with similar hiring needs to expedite the hiring process.  The simplified recruitment process reduced the average time to issue a certificate of eligible candidates to hiring officials using the new shared certificates process from 140 calendar days, on average, to 65.5 calendar days, on average and decreased the time-to-hire by saving 74.5 calendar days, on average, in the hiring process.  Since February 2019, 80% of candidates were selected from simplified recruitments; with a 200% increase in number of new hires on-boarded.
	Implemented two pilots of Better Assessment Tools for Better Quality Candidates in partnership with OPM, including USA Hire, purchased now for use Enterprise-wide; and Subject Matter Expert Quality Assurance in collaboration with US Digital Services - HHS Office of the Chief Information Officer and Office of the Chief Technology Officer selected 35+ qualified candidates to fill critical vacancies.
	Transitioned SES performance management from manual, paper-based processes to electronic system in October 2018, automating all tracking/reporting for SES HHS-wide.
	Successfully launched the Enterprise Human Capital Management system upgrade from PeopleSoft 8.9 to 9.2 in May 2019, creating a lasting baseline for managing HHS personnel transaction and reporting, using a single enterprise cloud-based solution.On September 30, 2019, HHS transitioned the work of the Maximize Talent Initiative to the Strategic Initiatives Group (SIG) within the Office of Human Resources (OHR).  SIG is responsible for coordination, communication, development, and implementation of transformational and strategic initiatives for OHR.  SIG activities focus on Maximize Talent's three primary goals: Optimizing HR Service Delivery; Modernizing HR Information Technology; and Improving the Employee Performance and Engagement Culture at HHS.  OHR will continue to identify, pilot, scale improvements and reforms across HHS through the SIG.

*Supporting Initiative: Bring Common Sense to Food Regulation; Enhance state produce safety infrastructure to improve farm compliance with Produce Safety Rule.*

**The Bring Common Sense to Food Regulation Initiative**aimed to increase collaboration between food regulatory programs to minimize dual jurisdiction and improve state produce safety infrastructure.  To address these issues, this Initiative consisted of two sub-Initiatives: Regulatory Oversight and State Produce Safety Infrastructure.  The objective of the State Produce Safety Infrastructure sub-Initiative was to fully develop and implement a state produce safety infrastructure to assist FDA in implementing the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Produce Safety regulations.  The core objective of the Regulatory Oversight sub-Initiative was to increase regulatory efficiency and advance food safety in the context of "dual jurisdiction establishments," where the Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service both have jurisdiction to conduct food inspections and exercise oversight.  FDA is working on joint efforts between USDA and FDA to reduce the duplication of inspections and create efficiencies with regulatory oversight.  This includes the consolidation and updating of existing memorandums of understanding between the agencies and the creation of a Field Management Directive.

On September 30, 2019, HHS transitioned the work of this Initiative to the Office of Regulatory Affairs and the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition within FDA.  In ongoing efforts to implement the FSMA, FDA has provided over $133 million in support to 48 grantees (47 states and 1 territory) to conduct outreach as well as establish regulatory programs.  By working with states to develop these programs and having states conduct their own inspection and compliance/enforcement work, FDA is working towards building an Integrated Food Safety System where states and FDA can mutually rely on each other's work.  As a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic, FDA imposed a Stop Work Order on the Produce Safety Cooperative Agreement between March 22, 2020 through June 5, 2020.  The Stop Work Order limited all face to face work grantees of the program could conduct.  As a result, the number of produce inspections conducted in this period is less than expected, but the outcome still exceeded the target.

**Designated Official:** Erik P. Mettler, Former Initiative Lead, Assistant Commissioner for Partnerships and Policy

**Performance Goal:** Create a more effective and efficient food safety system by partnering and leveraging the role of the states in improving produce safety as measured by 85 percent of states and territories (out of 55 total, 50 states and 5 territories) participating in the Produce Safety Implementation Cooperative Agreement Program (State CAP) by September 30, 2019.

*Supporting Initiative: Optimize NIH*

The *Optimize NIH* Initiative aimed to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of administrative functions for employees and the agency in support of the NIH mission.  *Optimize NIH*is focused on administrative areas that could be more effective and efficient if: 1) managed enterprise-wide, 2) managed through service centers, or 3) harmonized.

*Optimize NIH initially*focused its efforts on achieving enterprise-wide efficiencies in: Committee Management, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), and Ethics.  Harmonization was achieved through implementation of a standard format for Institutes and Centers to use as they update their Strategic Plans to be in alignment with the overall NIH Strategic Plan.

The remaining functional areas of Acquisitions, Information Technology Security, Title 42(f) Processing, Travel, and Property functions are optimizing using a combination of strategies best suited for each business area.

Salient accomplishments under *Optimize NIH* include:

Expanded the Committee Management Module (CMM) within existing Electronic Research Administration grants systems to add functionality and made it available for select stakeholders in a sandbox environment in September 2020.  Also, with the full implementation of the USA Staffing Onboarding System for Special Government Employees (SGEs) in March 2020 and the elimination of Committee Management courier services to HHS, there is a cost savings of $11,000 per year.
	Rolled out a customizable commercial off-the-shelf FOIA platform (FOIAXpress) and public access portal in early 2019 to improve FOIA management and standardize processes across all  of NIH's Institutes and Centers.  Since the launch of FOIAXpress and the portal, the number of requests received through portal has risen to 77 percent, the number of processed FOIA requests increased by 272 percent.
	Expanded the capabilities of the NIH Ethics Enterprise System, including electronic submission of the OGE Form 450 Confidential Financial Disclosure Report for SGEs and 278T Periodic Transaction Report.
	Created dashboards for data-based decision making in the areas of travel reporting, contract analytics, and IT security.**Designated Official:** Janet Shorback, Initiative Lead

**Performance Goal:** Increase the efficiency and effectiveness of NIH administrative functions to better support the agency's mission while maintaining support of the workforce, increasing employee engagement, and overseeing the use of taxpayer dollars.56  HHS completed the following performance goal: Make management of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests more efficient by reducing the number of systems used to track and submit FOIA requests by December 17, 2018.

**Data Source and Validation:** Tracking system – systems to track and submit FOIA reports.  The new, unified system permits data review and validation at the individual FOIA request level to monitor and improve quality of data and process management.

**Performance Indicator:** Number of Systems Used to Track and Submit FOIA Reports57

*Supporting Initiative: Buy Smarter*

The *Buy Smarter* Initiative is transformative and data-driven, leveraging the collective purchasing power of HHS to secure lower prices, achieve operational efficiencies, and generate cost avoidances on goods and services.  *Buy Smarter* is creating a leaner, more accountable, and efficient government by using technology to improve underlying business processes and mission outcomes.

*Buy Smarter* serves the mission and acquisition communities.  The immediate beneficiary is the HHS acquisition community through the group purchasing model.  This will ultimately benefit HHS's overall mission, through efficiencies gained from the rationalization of duplicative contracts and lower variance on prices paid for similar products and services.

*Buy Smarter* established an operating model, developed an implementation plan, and created a funding strategy for procurement process improvements that will realize projected cost avoidances.  The *Buy Smarter* Operating Model is based on the General Services Administration (GSA) Category Management structure.  *Buy Smarter*uses Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) technology to analyze current HHS contract data and the underlying mission requirements.  This identifies opportunities to consolidate contract vehicles across HHS to ensure best pricing and smarter buying for the federal government.

*Buy Smarter* is moving from the planning phase to the implementation phase along the parallel tracks of people, process, and technology, which will result in millions of dollars in savings when the improvements are implemented and realized.  *Buy Smarter* leverages new and emerging technologies (e.g., cloud-native technology, A.I., machine learning, etc.) to analyze HHS-wide spend data, thereby achieving economies of scale and cost avoidance across the Department.

**Designated Official:** David Dasher, Initiative Lead

**Performance Goal:** Establish an HHS-wide Executive Steering Committee to analyze data and make enterprise acquisition decisions for goods and services.  This will operationalize OMB Memo M-19-13 for Category Management and increase throughput (# of *BUY*SMARTER acquisitions), thereby, achieving economies of scale and cost avoidance across the Department.58

**Data Source and Validation:** Five HHS contract writing systems.  Data from all five contract writing systems will be consolidated in HHS's Accelerate model, which leverages Blockchain Technology and Artificial Intelligence for advanced data analytics.

**Performance Indicator:** Achieve increased year over year throughput (# of contracts executed through *BUY*SMARTER enterprise acquisition program), coverage (total spend based on throughput, and impact (projected cost avoidance under the *BUY*SMARTER enterprise acquisition program [annual, overall, and average percent avoided compared to previous prices paid).59

52 HHS anticipates 2020 FEVS results from OPM in January 2021.  HHS 2021 and 2022 FEVS targets for this measure are adjusted in light of COVID-19 government response.

53 The FY 2021 target will be established upon evaluation of 2019 FEVS results.

54 The HHS target for FY 2019 was to have 48 grantees participating in state CAP.  HHS has achieved this target and is discontinuing this performance indicator.

55 After the initial ramp up of inspections, HHS expects for progress to plateau.

56 Since HHS has met this performance goal, the Department is discontinuing the measure.

57 The HHS target for FY 2019 was to reduce the number of systems from eight to one.  HHS has achieved this target and is discontinuing this performance indicator.

58 HHS is retiring the original performance goal and performance indicator because *BUY*SMARTER is transitioning from an initiative to a program and graduating from ReImagine HHS into ASFR OA on September 30, 2020.  The new realigned performance goal and performance indicator reflect this transition from initiative to an ongoing program.

59 The initiative has realigned the performance goal and performance indicator based on the current focus of the work effort.
