How will the installation staff know if their positions are part of the study or part of the residual organization?
While the Commercial Activities Proposed Action Summary (CPAS) will identify CA and GIN/exempt spaces based on the FAIR Inventory, the cost competition study will identify which functions are CA and which are GIN/exempt. The study determines the most efficient organizations to perform the CA functionsthe MEOas well as the most efficient organization to perform the GIN/exempt functionsthe residual efficient organization (REO). Because many positions perform both CA and GIN/exempt functions, the study will consolidate GIN/exempt functions into the REO. As in any reorganization, it may be difficult to determine whether a given position became part of the MEO or part of the REO. Example: three positions each perform GIN functions half the time and CA functions half the time, and the study determines that one position in the REO can perform the GIN functions and one position in the MEO can perform the CA functions.
