Section 9901.101 Purpose. 9901.101 states: “This part contains regulations governing the establishment of a new human resources management system within the Department of Defense, as authorized by 5 U.S.C. 9902... These regulations are prescribed jointly by the Secretary of Defense and the Director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM).” In fact, the proposal does NOT contain regulations governing the establishment of a new pay, performance management, and classification system. These proposed regulations merely lay out some extremely broad parameters and note that the Secretary “may” actually develop the systems in the future with or without OPM, and with an undefined process to involve employees and their representatives.
