Navy’s Success-Oriented Approach to
Modernizing Personnel Capability
• Minimize change management challenges
• NSIPS is Navy’s field-level input system for Active and Reserve
personnel
• Personnel professionals and service members are familiar with
NSIPS, and are using some self-service capabilites
• Approval authority hierarchy in place for eLeave can be leveraged
for many other automated business processes
• Leverage existing capability (NSIPS)
• Navy was an early adopter of PeopleSoft HR capability; has many
years of functional and technical experience using PeopleSoft tools
• NSIPS uses modern software and hardware – no technical
obsolescence issues
• NSIPS operates in a disconnected mode – conserving limited
bandwidth
• Develop effective and efficient business processes and apply
technology as needed
• Primary issues are with inefficient business processes and lack of
data integration, not with NSIPS itself
4
Personnel Strategy
• Acquisition strategy for Navy personnel capability is to
develop/modernize the existing Navy Standard Integrated Personnel
System (NSIPS)
• NSIPS is the foundational system for Navy personnel, currently in
Operations and Support/Sustainment phase - not an active ACAT
• Reserve Headquarters Support (RHS), Officer Personnel Information
System (OPINS), Inactive Manpower and Personnel Management
Information System (IMAPMIS), and Navy Enlisted System (NES) also
provide current personnel capability
• NSIPS Dev/Mod may subsume these capabilities
• Use of NSIPS to meet Navy personnel requirements allows for:
• No new single acquisition program of record to meet Navy personnel
capability needs
• Dev/Mods to be acquired under the Business Capability Lifecycle (BCL)
using a tailored approach
• First Dev/Mod defined by Functional Sponsor is Retirements and
Separations
5
NSIPS Training Status
• Formal training was removed from YN & PS ‘A’
Schools
• Reinstatement in PS ‘A’ School underway
• Original training materials developed with NSIPS
(CBT, embedded help) are not current
• Heavy reliance on OJT at PSDs
• Substantially reduced waterfront support for training
• Reserves have some formal training for NSIPS
underway
6
Current NSIPS Training Gaps
• PS/YN HPPR hosted by CSS from 1-4 Feb, 2011 – Fleet called for
reinstituting NSIPS training into the YN & PS ‘A’ Schools
• US Fleet Forces Command Action Item
•
Provide description of shore infrastructure to support pipeline training for
NSIPS…
• “Note: OJT is not an acceptable plan for maintaining ship's crew proficiency.“
• OPNAV N16 FIT Evaluation of Navy Personnel Systems revealed Fleet
knowledge gap for personnel systems and services
•
The lack of knowledge (training) results in confusion among Fleet users
regarding how to access and use personnel systems, such as the
Electronic Service Record
•
Formal training required for multiple Fleet user groups
•
Sailor/Command Pass Coordinator training/performance support needed
• Civilian and contractor personnel providing PSD services also need
NSIPS training

●
Principals include: OPNAV N1BX, OPNAV N16, PMW 240
●
Participants include: BUPERS 26, COMNAVRESFOR,
NPPSC, NETC N7, CSS

Next Steps
1.ISD analysis on next priority
1. Determine training/performance support medium
2. Produce training/performance support intervention
3. Repeat the process
2.Assess need for more E2E solution
1. Perhaps Sailor/CPC Front-End to NPPSC SOPs w/ PMW 240
Training/Performance Support Intervention
3.Finalize NSIPS NTSP Update
