UNCLASSIFIED ROUTINE R 211250Z OCT 16 FM CNO WASHINGTON DC TO NAVADMIN INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC BT UNCLAS NAVADMIN 235/16 MSGID/GENADMIN/CNO WASHINGTON DC/N1/OCT// SUBJ/NAVY PAY AND PERSONNEL ADMINISTRATION SUPPORT SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS// REF/A/LTR/NAVMAC/13SEP16/NOTAL// AMPN/REF A IS NAVMAC LTR SUBJ: ESTABLISHMENT OF NAVY ENLISTED CLASSIFICATION CODE 95AD COMMAND PAY AND PERSONNEL ADMINISTRATOR SER 10/313.// RMKS/1. The Navy has an interest to ensure a Sailor focused Pay and Personnel Support System is highly-trained, auditable, and enhanced by today’s technology. 2. During the past year, The Navy Pay and Personnel Support System have been reviewed by a Special Joint Task Force and a number of actions have been identified that will improve the quality of pay and personnel services provided to Sailors, such as: a. Improving training for pay and personnel professionals. b. Assigning more military personnel to Personnel Support Detachments (PSD) in Continental United States (CONUS) locations. c. Improving Sailor and command self-service capabilities. d. Implementing organizational changes that will produce more opportunities for civilian upward mobility. 3. The following specific actions have recently been put in place: a. Revamping the Command Pass Coordinator (CPC) position, renamed as Command Pay and Personnel Administrator (CPPA), to include more defined responsibilities and enhanced training. All Navy commands and Navy detachments with an independent unit identification code, whether that command is located in one geographical area or spread through a geographical region, will have at least one CPPA to ensure command level accountability, auditability, and full engagement with their supporting PSD. The partnership between commands and their supporting PSDs is the key to providing Sailors with accurate and timely pay and personnel support. The Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (N1) along with U.S. Fleet Forces Command and U.S. Pacific Command are developing metrics to measure and assess commands on timeliness and transaction execution accuracy rate of CPPA functions. b. Establishing a Navy Enlisted Classification (NEC) code of 95AD, CPPA, to ensure that Navy personnel are properly trained and certified in the pay and personnel policies and procedures. Civilian personnel currently serving as a CPC are also required to complete the CPPA courses. Reference (a) lists the NEC requirements as the following: (1) Navy eLearning course completions with exams. (2) On the job training. (3) Designation letter from the commanding officer (CO) or officer in charge (OIC). c. Conducting monthly CPPA engagements, ashore and afloat, which are also available through distance communication medians for commands not geographically located near their servicing PSD. The engagement identifies the resources available to assist CPPAs in performing their duties, provides facilitated CPPA training of Navy approved training aids, provides guidance and clarification on specific pay and personnel topics, and presents the opportunity to address local issues. d. Future Initiatives: (1) Implement changes in PSD workforce management to maximize system and process effectiveness. This will include adding billets for military pay clerks (active component and Full-Time Support) at the PSD. Billet growth will also increase detailing opportunities at CONUS and Outside CONUS PSDs. The wider range of positions will enhance knowledge and experience across the PSDs and enable Navy to better retain skilled personnel. (2) Implement a more efficient and direct interface within the Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System in order to better leverage current personnel management tools. 4. The design of the Navy’s Pay and Personnel Support System aligns with the Navy’s Design for maintaining maritime superiority as it allows for fully integrated and transparent data and analytics, increased career choices and flexibility, expanded family support, and tailored learning. The initiatives described above are intended to help move the Navy pay and personnel support forward to meet Sailor expectations. 5. COs and OICs will continue to contribute to the success of the Navy’s Pay and Personnel Support System. Success requires leadership engagement at all levels to ensure that Sailors and their families receive their pay and entitlements in a timely and accurate manner. Whether at a PSD, PSD Afloat, or on independent operations with a carrier, fixed wing aircraft, or nuclear platforms, COs and OICs must ensure that timely and auditable processes are in place, and that all pay and military pay clerks receive the most up-to- date training. 6.
