MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Finance
SUBJECT : OF Staffing Complement
REFERENCES . A. Executive-Director Comptroller Memorandum
for DDS dated 7 January 1972, Subject:
Revised Personnel Ceiling Allocations
for 1972 and 1973
B. Memorandum for D/Fin from ADDS, dated
12 January 1972, Subject: Revised Ceiling
Allocation for FY 1972 and 1973
1. Jn order to provide a basis fcr discussing the ceiling and
average grade implications of the referent memoranda, the following
information is provided on the Office of Finance Staffing Complement
proposed for FY 1972 (which has still not been approved).
a. The "currently authorized" OF average grade, within
the context of Paragraph 3. of Reference A., is GS-8.963
based on a FY 1972 ceiling
b. When we submitted our proposed FY 1972 Staffing
Complement we proposed an average grade of GS-9.069. This
represented an increase of .106 over our currently authorized
average grade.
c. The additional reduction of nine (9) positions in
FY 1972 and FY 1973 will result in a minor increase in our
average grade from GS-9.069 to GS-9.076.
d.. To accommodate to "an average grade no higher than
.currently authorized" for our FY 1973 Staffing Complement
will require that we modify our proposed FY 1972 Staffing
Complement by downward grade adjustments aggregrating 27
grade points.

2. While I sympathize with the ground rules as regards average grade
as prescribed by the Executive-Director Comptroller and endorsed by the DD/S,
I feel that a more realistic and defensible sPtarting point for the Office of
Finance would be our proposed FY 1972 Staffing Complement grade of GS-9.069.

 Approved For Release 2000/09/08 :CCfA-RDP80-0134fi 000200010005-3
To cut this back by 27 points would simply wreck havoc with our proposed
staffing structure. As you know our proposed FY 1972 Staffing Complement
has not been approved by the Office of Personnel notwithstanding repeated
appeals from this Office. I understand the holdup has been our proposed
increase in average grade.
3. Although we have until 1 April to get our FY 1973 Staffing
Complement to the Office of Personnel, I feel it might be worthwhile for
you to seek an audience with Mr. Coffey to discuss in general terms the
magnitude and implications of the problems of average grade facing the
Office of Finance.
