Coming Soon: e-Payroll Module

The IFMP will include the implementation of e-Payroll, a comprehensive multi-component personnel system that includes payroll, time recording, personnel management, and labor costing. Under the President's Management Agenda, the OPM sponsored e-Payroll initiative accelerated the timeline for replacement of NASA's payroll functions under IFMP. NASA has agreed to implement e-Payroll as part of the larger e-Government initiative to streamline and modernize Human Capital systems in order to effectively support Agency missions. E-Payroll will be implemented in three stages over the next two years.

The first e-Payroll component to go live will be WebTADS, a new time recording system that will replace OMNI. WebTADS is scheduled to go live at the end of November 2003, and will affect all civil servants at GSFC. The IFM team will be assisting each directorate in making the transition from OMNI to WebTADS beginning this September, and will continue this assistance right up until go-live in late November.

The second component of the e-Payroll module to go live will be the Federal Personnel and Payroll System (FPPS), scheduled to go live in August 2004. FPPS will replace the NASA Personnel and Payroll System (NPPS), which provides all core personnel and payroll management functionality.

The third component of e-Payroll will be a modification of WebTADS to include labor costing functionality. This modification is scheduled for summer of 2005.

Look for more details about the November implementation of WebTADS during the next few weeks.
