The mission of the Project Support Group (PSG) is to be the force provider for PEO STRI and to ensure that the workforce has the proper skills, processes, procedures and tools to efficiently and successfully accomplish the mission of the organization.
DESCRIPTION:
We recruit some of the best and brightest talent across the DoD, other agencies and industry. PEO STRI, and organizations all across the Army and DoD, are experiencing a very intense operational tempo. It is critical that every employee in federal service - from the newest developmental employee to the most senior journeyman - perform their duties with reduced oversight. The PSG sponsors the Acquisition Academy (A2), an 11-week on-site training program, to introduce developmental employees to the federal government. The A2 provides the basics of each career field’s functions and high-level information about the Army and acquisition processes. The A2 provides a large benefit to the organization in getting new developmental employees up to speed. As a result of the A2’s success, we have a 98% retention rate of our developmental employees - each is an integral and valuable member of the workforce. PEO STRI has a very active employee development program and has won the OSD Workforce Development Award (Bronze). The Assistant Program Executive Officer for Project Support leads the PSG through three Directorates and the Workforce Development Office, each of which are identified below.
