H.R. 367 would establish a career program for acquisition professionals within the
Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The program would designate the relevant
occupational series, grades, and number of positions eligible for the program; provide
specialized training to participants; and seek to attract candidates from different backgrounds
to participate. The act also would require DHS to annually report to the Congress on the
participants in the program and the retention rates for acquisition professionals.
DHS is currently carrying out an acquisition professional program. Using information about
that program, CBO estimates that new activities required under the act would not require
substantial action by the department and would cost less than $500,000 annually. In total,
CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 367 would cost about $2 million over the 2021-2026
period; such spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Lindsay Wylie. The estimate was reviewed by
Leo Lex, Deputy Director of Budget Analysis.
