Track Your Agency’s Progress on Merit Hiring Plan
 Similar to other governmentwide reporting requirements, MonsterGov is assisting federal agencies and working with OPM’s Merit System Accountability and Compliance (MSAC) team in providing data regarding Merit Hiring Plan implementation progress. Our team is also working with OPM on a more efficient and effective process to provide the agency data required without the need for continuous ‘data calls’ - and we are currently in the prototyping stage. We encourage agencies to proactively engage with their MonsterGov representatives to ensure optimal system usage for accurate reporting to OPM and data-driven insights for continuous performance improvement.
