ACTION: Notice of a modified System of Records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) is modifying an 
existing System of Records, Defense Civilian Personnel Data System 
(DCPDS), DPR 34 DoD, by changing the system name and number to the 
Defense Civilian Human Resource Management System (DCHRMS), DHRA 23 
DoD. The DCHRMS serves as the Department's enterprise civilian human 
resources (HR) automated system and supports one-third of the Federal 
work force. The Defense Civilian Personnel Advisory Service will manage 
the development, deployment, and administration of the DCHRMS 
operation. DCHRMS' operational activities will include the processing 
of all personnel transactions, position management, providing workforce 
analysis and reporting for the DoD and external government agencies, 
support for health insurance programs, managing benefits, performance 
management and reporting certification and training. DCHRMS will 
support the entire civilian HR life cycle, with transactions and 
information reflecting acquiring, assigning, training and development, 
sustaining and managing HR compensation, managing organizations, 
supporting benefits management, and separation or termination of 
civilian personnel.

DATES: This System of Records modification is effective upon 
publication; however, comments on the Routine Uses will be accepted on 
or before February 27, 2020. The Routine

[[Page 4950]]

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OSD is modifying this System of Records

Key Driver of Transformation to ``Build and maintain more modern, 
secure, and resilient information technology to enhance mission 
delivery and productivity'' while potentially reducing costs by 
minimizing variations from standard processes and design, increasing 
efficiencies, and enhancing customer satisfaction. The DCHRMS system 
will streamline and standardize personnel processes, such as hiring, 
reducing time, effort, and costs for the Department and users. The 
Software as a Service Cloud implementation will also provide more 
security as a single record source by eliminating duplicate record 
storage. Building a more modern, secure, and resilient system will 
enhance productivity and customer satisfaction. This includes an 
employee self-service system providing a single, comprehensive 
transactional record for civilian employees, resulting in more 
efficient and streamlined HR processes.
    The OSD notices for Systems of Records subject to the Privacy Act 
of 1974, as amended, have been published in the Federal Register and
