Sections 9901.605-606 – Competitive area and Competitive group – Additional criteria for establishing competitive areas under NSPS include line of business, product line, and funding line. Current OPM regulations include only geographic location and organizational unit. 'Competitive Group' is the NSPS term for competitive levels. OPM regulations base placement in a competitive level only on the employee's official position description. The proposal allows the position description to be supplemented by 'other applicable records that document the employee's actual duties and responsibilities'; however, these other records are not defined.
