Agency Snapshot:
Office of Personnel Management The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is the central human resources agency for the Federal Government. The agency’s administrative budgetary resources ensures the Federal government has an effective and efficient civilian workforce by providing products and services such as personnel investigations, leadership development and training, examining, staffing, recruiting, organizational assessments, and training and management assistance. OPM also administers the retirement, health and life insurance programs for Federal employees and retirees. Like other agencies, it is committed to pursuing this important mission while managing its finances effectively, using only property it needs, and accounting for its finances properly.
Senior Real Property Officer: Tina B. McGuire
Agency Real Property Profile
OPM uses 1.6 million square feet of space, of which 900,000 square feet is Federally owned and 700,000 square feet is leased. OPM does not own any real property and does not have a delegated leasing authority. OPM’s leasing requirements are coordinated through the General Services Administration (GSA).
Reduction in Real Property Usage
OPM’s cost savings goal is $1 million by the end of fiscal year 2012. The chart, “Progress Towards the Goal” identifies what has been achieved to date.
Breakdown in Reduction
OPM has accomplished this goal through the expanded use of telework, which has allowed for the closure of several offices; release of office and warehouse space, thus reducing realty costs; and, work-space sharing with other Federal Agencies, thereby eliminating the need to acquire additional, more costly leased space. OPM will continue to review its leasing inventory in order to identify additional cost saving initiatives as the Agency has a strong commitment toward achieving the most efficient and productive use of its leasing inventory.
