16. Workstream 1A/B: Reprioritizing mission activities
The SEC established a working group to address the BCG report’s recommendation that the SEC
evaluate and reprioritize its mission critical activities agency-wide and realign resources
accordingly. As stated in the Third Report to Congress, eight activities were identified where
reprioritization was likely to have the greatest impact, and which therefore warranted further
study to determine the appropriate scope for potential changes. The working group is now
meeting with the relevant Offices and Divisions to document impact assessments of these
activities.
17. Workstream 2D: Reviewing the Commission/staff interaction process and delegation of
authority
Due to limited resources and the need to address other SEC priorities, the working group
postponed further efforts to implement the draft recommendations regarding periodic review of
existing delegations and advance notice of significant exercises of delegated authority with
Commissioners and staff.
As priorities shift, the SEC may reevaluate the availability of
resources and refocus on this matter.
18. Workstream 3D: Restructure OHR (Workforce Planning)
The SEC continues to undertake workforce analysis and planning activities to better understand
and respond to the gap between Division and Office workload and the workforce available to
fulfill it. These improvements in workforce planning constitute a significant step forward for the
agency.
Progress since the last report includes the following:
• In September 2012, OHR updated the workforce profile data that was initially developed
and introduced as a workforce planning tool to the SEC. The workforce profile identified
gaps in the workforce, served as an effective tool for recruitment actions, and helped to
assess future workforce needs. Each Office received its own updated profile along with
instructions on how to obtain the greatest value from it. OHR also required each Office
to submit a report providing its 2013 workforce plans.
