Pay Bands. The understanding among the workforce is the pay band groupings are changing from the current Acq demo where the current pay band, NH-IV, GS-14/15 pay grade equilvalent changes to a GS-13/14 equivalent. The anticipation is the GS-15 step 4 rule will determine which pay band an individual falls into. If salary is the only determining factor there will be many cases where an individual with a broad range of responsibility (programmatic and personnel) will fall into a lower grade level than the employees he supervises and rates not to mention a lower grade level than his peers in the same positions of responsibility.
