MEMORANDUM FOR:
SUBJECT Review of Office Functions and Activities
(Security Records Division)
1. PURPOSE AND DESCRIPTION
A. The purpose of the Security Records Division (SRD) is to
provide services which are essential for the maintenance, control
and retrievability of information which is developed as a result
of Security case processing activities; and to provide other ser-
vices which logically derive from the fact that SRD is the funnel
for distribution of correspondence and the central repository of
accumulated information which has been generated by Security case
processing operations.
B. As of April 1975 the staffing complement of SRD was 73,
assigned in the organizational structure as follows:
Office of the Chief/SRD 4
Chief, Records & Services Branch (R&SB) 1
Communications Section 7
Processing Section 10
Indices Section 6
Files Section 11
Case Analysis Branch (CAB) 7
Outside Agency Name Check Staff (OANCS) 4
Systems Support Branch (SSB) 12
Microfiche and Retirement Branch (M&RB) 11
C. The organizational structure is established so that a
majority of the requests can be serviced efficiently by people
who are trained in specific activities. However, there are times
when, for the sake of efficiency, an activity may be performed
in any one of several organizational units. For example: Office
of Security Case Controls and Reports (OSCCAR) Initiation Actions
may be coded in R&SB (Processing Section), in CAB, or in SSB.
Which unit performs the activity depends upon the routing of the
request which, in turn, depends upon the nature of the request,
the type of case, the information which is developed from the
indices search, and various other factors. When a certain activity
may be performed in different organizational units, it is listed
as an activity of each unit.

A. SRD Management
The general management functions of SRD are performed by the
-Chief, assisted by the Deputy Chief and other SRD personnel as
required. SRD management is directly responsible for efficient
use of resources which cost about $1,500,000,00 annually---about
$1,100,000.00 from the Office of Security budget, plus about
$400,000.00 in assessed charges from OJCS in support of computer
systems which are managed by SRD. The timeliness, quality and
accuracy of SRD's products contribute to the efficient use of re-
sources in other Agency components and in other Government agencies.
The goal of SRD is to improve or expand services while utilizing
personnel, space and money with optimum efficiency. Achieving
this goal requires a constant awareness of the environment, as
well as an intimate knowledge of the people, the processes and
the product of SRD. SRD management activities include:
1. Investigates and evaluates the potential of technological
advances in information processing techniques and equipment, storage
equipment, microform techniques and equipment, duplicating machines
and devices.
2. Selects systems, equipment and devices which will improve
efficiency, and arranges for their installation and utilization.
3. Evaluates information concerning Agency and office direc-
tions and trends, policies, directives and regulations. Implements
and monitors changed policies and procedures within SRD to insure
