IFPTE: A new day at NASA – a rebirth at Ames
“More specifically, there was truly terrific news on Monday as the Obama Administration has addressed many of IFPTE’s NASA-budget recommendations:
1. Full-cost recovery has been cancelled (IFPTE’s #1 workforce priority).
The Agency will be going to a single unified CS labor account in FY11. In a letter from Administrator Bolden on Monday, he assured the Union that: “Going forward, it is also NASA’s intention to work with the Congress to implement a unified labor account for FY 2011. NASA remains committed to full-cost workforce planning, to including labor estimates in our project baseline, and to complete transparency in workforce utilization at HQ and the Centers; however, we think it very valuable to unify labor into a single account for budget purposes.”
