In an introductory note to the new data strategy, OPM Director Kiran Ahuja said: “Given that OPM collects data on the Federal civilian workforce across the employee lifecycle, from recruiting to employment to retirement, the agency has a historic opportunity to become a hub for delivering data-driven policy, enhanced analytics, data standards and digital solutions that together are key enablers for strategic human capital management across the Federal government. It includes a requirement for agencies to assess data and related infrastructure maturity, identify opportunities to increase staff data skills and identify priority data sets for agency open data plans. This new strategy is designed to align with the Federal Data Strategy Action Plans for 20 as well as the Workforce Priority section of the President’s Management Agenda. The agency holds a wealth of data about federal civilian employees, from their initial recruitment to retirement, which it intends to use more effectively to help agencies make more strategic human capital decisions.
