Why 无忧传媒听

无忧传媒 has had an early and sustained impact on the transformation of human capital in the federal government.听 We helped OPM develop the first version of the Human Capital Assessment and Accountability Framework (HCAAF) and have enabled numerous agencies to get from 鈥渞ed鈥� to 鈥済reen.鈥澨� We have been routinely selected to address the most challenging human capital and training problems and have led three of the four major human capital transformation efforts in the Federal Government that have occurred in the past two decades (i.e., Internal Revenue Service [IRS], Department of Homeland Security [DHS], and the Office of the Director for National Intelligence [ODNI]). We develop solutions consistent with federal laws and regulations yet allow agencies to take advantage of results-oriented personnel flexibilities. These critical engagements have established 无忧传媒 as a human capital, training, and organizational performance improvement consultant of choice鈥攁s has our proven track record and our awards and recognition for providing innovative solutions across hundreds of human capital and training projects with nearly all federal agencies.听

听

Credibility听

• We have proudly partnered with OPM on the legacy TMA contract vehicles, on both the human capital and training contracts, since its inception 25+ years ago.
• Focusing on Strategic Human Capital Management to include Training and Organizational Performance Improvement.听
• We have a substantial business area specifically focused on delivering human capital, learning, and organizational performance improvement services to the private and public sectors, allowing us to leverage best practices from both.
• This business segment is led by partners and senior managers who are human capital learning and organizational performance improvement experts.
• Our business structure allows us to apply a holistic perspective to strategic human capital management鈥攆ocusing on agency and human capital strategy, training and performance, information technology (IT), and business processes. The ability to deliver seamlessly integrated solutions across the problem space helps us address client problems rather than merely provide services.

听

Depth of 无忧传媒听

We have the largest contingent of human capital, training, and organizational performance resources in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area鈥�80% hold advanced degrees, and more than 28% hold security clearances. Several hundred staff have credentials/certifications from professional organizations, and our consultants are encouraged to hold leadership positions within those organizations, serve on panels, and deliver presentations to the international HR community.听

听

Blended Solutions听

Most human capital initiatives fail due to a static, one-dimensional view of human capital and performance. Too often, a 鈥渙ne size fits all鈥� approach is applied, where the same steps are reused regardless of the type of project, and the client receives poor value. Too much time is spent force-fitting an initiative into one area exclusively (i.e., human capital or learning), resulting in poor allocation of the client鈥檚 resources. Our experience has led us to believe a more optimal approach is to 鈥渂lend鈥� human capital and learning functional areas to provide a more complete solution. Blended solutions are an interwoven mix of human capital, learning, and organizational performance improvement capabilities to address agencies鈥� people-related challenges comprehensively.

听

We frequently see the impact of developing fragmented solutions when integrated solutions are critical because only one stakeholder (HR, Training, or performance management) is involved in shaping and implementing recommendations for increasing performance. We have also seen that isolated human capital or learning solutions often uncover a need for more fundamental organizational culture, design/structure, and strategy interventions to resolve the systemic challenges organizations face that prevent or preclude significant performance improvement.

听

We have successfully partnered with clients to develop and implement blended solutions. At the Defense Contract Management Agency, we initially focused on developing competencies, identifying workforce competency gaps, and creating solutions. This effort grew into mapping learning opportunities to each competency and forming the backbone data to serve as the foundation for a Learning Management System. As an outgrowth of those activities, the effort culminated in creating career paths and comprehensive career guides for every career field in the agency. Without having an understanding of the intersections between human capital and learning and how they can be combined to increase the effectiveness of an initiative, multiple procurements may have been required and, even more dramatically, the upfront data collected in the competency modeling exercises may have proved incomplete or unusable for the subsequent downstream efforts.

听

As a result, 无忧传媒 Hamilton鈥檚 views that providing blended solutions to the federal government optimizes the benefits associated with solutions, encourages collaboration and the development of shared solutions across internal 鈥減eople鈥� systems, and allows the government to purchase end-to-end human capital/learning system and change solutions.

Overview of HCaTS

The General Services Administration (GSA) and the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) collaborated on the HCaTS vehicle to better address and respond more effectively and efficiently to the federal government鈥檚 human capital and training challenges. This partnership allowed each agency to bring to bear their respective strengths, namely GSA鈥檚 鈥渁cquisition capabilities, tools, and strategic sourcing experience鈥� and OPM鈥檚 鈥渆xpertise in human resources, human capital, and training鈥� to develop the HCaTS IDIQ contract vehicle.

听

HCaTS allows federal agencies to procure customized human capital, training, and organizational performance improvement solutions from a list of pre-qualified vendors. The contract allows for all contract types (e.g., Firm Fixed Price, Cost-Reimbursement, Time and Materials /Labor-Hour) with the ability to combine contract types within a task order.

听

To further drive cost competitiveness, there are no pre-established labor rates for competitive task orders, and rates are established for each task order.
