submitted 25 years ago by Pub. L. 107-71 to r/title-49-TRANSPORTATION · 229 words · no verdicts yet
The TSA Administrator must set up a system for measuring how well managers, employees, and the agency overall are performing. Each year the Secretary and the Administrator, and then the Administrator and senior managers and other employees, must agree on individual performance goals. TSA should also favor performance-based contracts when using contractors.
(a) Fair performance system. The Administrator must set up a performance management system that strengthens TSA by setting goals and objectives for managers, employees, and the organization as a whole, matching the agency's overall performance plan.
(b) Accountability. Each year, the Secretary of Homeland Security and the Administrator must sign an annual performance agreement setting organizational and individual goals for the Administrator. Each year, the Administrator and each senior manager reporting to the Administrator must also sign an annual agreement with their own organizational and individual goals, and all other TSA employees must do the same.
(c) Performance-based contracting. Where TSA uses contracts to carry out the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, the Administrator must, as much as practical, favor performance-based service contracts, following guidelines from the Office of Federal Procurement Policy.
The Administrator of the Transportation Security Administration shall establish a performance management system which strengthens the organization’s effectiveness by providing for the establishment of goals and objectives for managers, employees, and organizational performance consistent with the performance plan.
Each year, the Secretary of Homeland Security and Administrator of the Transportation Security Administration shall enter into an annual performance agreement that shall set forth organizational and individual performance goals for the Administrator of the Transportation Security Administration.
Each year, the Administrator of the Transportation Security Administration and each senior manager who reports to the Administrator shall enter into an annual performance agreement that sets forth organization and individual goals for those managers. All other employees hired under the authority of the Administrator shall enter into an annual performance agreement that sets forth organization and individual goals for those employees.
To the extent contracts, if any, are used to implement the Aviation and Transportation Security Act (Public Law 107–71; 115 Stat. 597), the Administrator of the Transportation Security Administration shall, to the extent practical, maximize the use of performance-based service contracts. These contracts should be consistent with guidelines published by the Office of Federal Procurement Policy.
