My Workplace will enhance productivity by making it easier for the Agency’s multidisciplinary, geographically dispersed workforce stay better informed by facilitating communication, coordination, collaboration and innovation, thus allowing EPA to deliver better on its mission of protecting human health and the environment. The My Workplace collaboration tool will contain information about PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 employees obtained from other Agency systems (e.g., name, user id, work phone number) or voluntarily provided by the users (e.g., home phone number, home address). The system will contain employees’ names, user identification numbers, telephone numbers, office numbers and locations, organizational information, skill sets, education and experience. This information will be used to foster communication and enhance the ability of employees to locate individuals with relevant experience and skill sets.

Lync will include the information contained in the personalized profiles and will temporarily display additional information about a user’s presence or status, based on the user’s online activity, (e.g., ‘‘user has been away for 20 minutes’’). This feature is active by default, but users may disable it. Users will also have the option of posting a personalized status message for other users to see on their profile. The information for both Lync and the personalized profiles will be stored in Microsoft’s Shared Government Cloud and will be accessible by users of the system. Initial profile information will be populated using EPA’s existing directory information; however, users will have the ability to update and manage their profiles. My Workplace will allow users to establish team collaboration workspaces; facilitate sharing of documents, policies and information; and network through the SharePoint features. The SharePoint environment will include Agency policies, procedures, forms, organization charts, links to other sites that are helpful for users, and links to other EPA SharePoint sites containing shared documents and other information.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

General Information

    EPA proposes to create a new system of records under the Privacy 
Act to enhance the Agency's communication and collaboration 
environment. EPA is implementing My Workplace, utilizing Microsoft 
Office 365 and SharePoint Online, to deliver a cost effective, user-
friendly, agency-wide collaboration solution that will help transform 
the way employees work at EPA. My Workplace will enhance productivity 
by making it easier for the Agency's multi-disciplinary, geographically 
dispersed workforce stay better informed by facilitating communication, 
coordination, collaboration and innovation, thus allowing EPA to 
deliver better on its mission of protecting human health and the 
environment.
    The My Workplace collaboration tool will contain information about 
employees obtained from other Agency systems (e.g., name, user id, work 
phone number) or voluntarily provided by the users (e.g., home phone 
number, home address). The system will contain employees' names, user 
identification numbers, telephone numbers, office numbers and 
locations, organizational information, skill sets, education and 
experience. This information will be used to foster communication and 
enhance the ability of employees to locate individuals with relevant 
experience and skill sets.
    EPA plans to use a feature of the system that consists of 
personalized profiles for each employee as an Agency directory to help 
connect subject matter experts to Agency projects. The profiles will 
include work-related information (office location, office phone number) 
as well as optional information voluntarily provided by the employee 
such as work experience and educational history or photographs. The use 
of the profile will improve information sharing and collaboration among 
colleagues and make it easier for EPA staff to locate the knowledge 
skills and abilities required for Agency projects and initiatives.
    My Workplace will use Lync, an instant messaging and video 
conferencing tool, to promote discussion and communication through 
instant messaging and online meetings. Lync will include the 
information contained in the personalized profiles and will temporarily 
display additional information about a user's presence or status, based 
on the user's online activity, (e.g., ``user has been away for 20 
minutes''). This feature is active by default, but users may disable 
it. Users will also have the option of posting a personalized status 
message for other users to see on their profile. The information for 
both Lync and the personalized profiles will be stored in Microsoft's 
Shared Government Cloud and will be accessible by users of the system. 
Initial profile information will be populated using EPA's existing 
directory information; however, users will have the ability to update 
and manage their profiles.
    My Workplace will allow users to establish team collaboration 
workspaces; facilitate sharing of documents, policies and information; 
and network through the SharePoint features. The SharePoint environment 
will include Agency policies, procedures, forms, organization charts, 
links to other sites that are helpful for users, and links to other EPA 
SharePoint sites containing shared documents and other information. 
Sharepoint will include content on program and regional offices, 
services and support,

[[Page 9201]]

and projects and activities. My Workplace will include a directory of 
all users, including contact information, titles and professional 
business information. Users will be able to set up a personal profile, 
upload pictures, and publish content and messages that are similar to 
email. My Workplace will also allow employees to join groups, connect 
with colleagues, receive newsfeeds when new information is posted, and 
identify colleagues with specialized knowledge and/or expertise to 
participate in collaborative efforts. Employees will also be able to 
use their profiles to apply to participate on virtual collaboration 
projects and teams.
    The system will be managed and maintained by EPA's Office of 
Environmental Information.
