FAIR Act Inventory

The Federal Activities Inventory Reform (FAIR) Act of 1998 requires federal agencies to annually prepare and submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) inventories of commercial activities performed by federal employees. OMB Circular A-76, Performance of Commercial Activities, further requires agencies to submit inventories of their inherently governmental activities to OMB. By annually reviewing and revising complete workforce inventories, agencies are better able to understand the functions their workforce is performing and how those functions relate to the agency’s mission. Functions deemed commercial may be examined as potential candidates for competitive sourcing.

MAI is able to provide support in all areas of the FAIR Act Inventory including:

  • Inventory Review and Analysis. Review the current FAIR Act Inventory, staffing charts, and tables for background and to appropriately code positions. Conduct macro and micro level functional inventories, compile final Inventory lists, and identify anomalies (e.g., vacancies and temporary assignments).
  • Coding.  Provide recommendations for Function, Reason, and Status coding of all positions using Agency approved guidelines and current OMB policies.
  • Justifications.  Assist in drafting Justification Memos for non commercial positions.
  • Inventories.  Compile and prepare FAIR Act Inventories for submission to OMB.  Assist in responding to Department or OMB comments on the Inventory.
