• OMB, OPM Lay Out Goals, Procedures for Agency ‘RIF and Reorganization Plans’ - March 5, 2025

• FEDweek

  The U.S. Office of Management and Budget (“OMB”) and the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (“OPM”) now submit guidance on these Agency RIF and Reorganization Plans (“ARRP”), along with the instruction that such plans be submitted to OMB and OPM.

  II. Principles to Inform ARRPs
  
  ARRPs should seek to achieve the following:
  
  1. Better service for the American people;
  
  2. Increased productivity;
  
  3. A significant reduction in the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) positions by eliminating positions that are not required;
  
  4. A reduced real property footprint; and
  
  5. Reduced budget topline.
  
  Pursuant to the President’s direction, agencies should focus on the maximum elimination of functions that are not statutorily mandated while driving the highest-quality, most efficient delivery of their statutorily-required functions.
