About EHRI

Enterprise Human Resources Integration (EHRI) is one of five OPM-led e-Government initiatives designed to leverage the benefits of information technology in line with the President's Management Agenda. In support of this agenda, The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has mandated that all Executive Branch agencies eliminate paper Official Personnel Folders (OPFs) by October 2010.

A key initiative of EHRI is the electronic Official Personnel Folder (eOPF) Program. Through on-demand Web-based access to personnel folders, EHRI eOPF enables 24/7 concurrent access to personnel information by Human Resources (HR) staff, managers, and employees. The suite of EHRI analytical tools and a comprehensive Data Warehouse provide on-demand, custom reports to accurately plan and forecast the personnel needs of the Federal Government.

One-stop Solutions for Agencies
With more than 40 eOPF implementations underway or completed, EHRI offers a standard approach for HR record conversion, storage, access, sharing, and archiving. Solutions can be customized to meet the needs of agencies of all sizes. EHRI also serves as a center of excellence for paper OPF conversion and eOPF hosting, and provides comprehensive support to guide Agencies throughout the eOPF process.

"The improved security enabled by eOPF fulfills an important role in Continuity of Operations (COOP) in case of disaster. Special Investigators have also benefited from electronic folders, cutting the time it takes to review a folder almost in half, thereby better supporting national security interests." — USAID
