     This d ciion  inviolve -a revi  of the denial bt- the Donartment
of the Army, H1eadquarteri Unit1eI ¶!tates Army ,ir Defenmae Center and
Fort Blisa, Manaierent ITformation SyStens Of-fe,  of a within-arade
periodic pay increase to f-r. Charles V. Davies, Jr., a civilian em-
ployee of tha Departaent of the Ary.

     The facts in this case are not in dispute.  Mr. Davies'
advancement from GS-12, step 6, to GS-12, step 7. was effective
on May 24, 1970.  He comoleted the reiuired waiting period for
advancement to step 8 on May 19, 1973.  Prior to this date his
supervisor had signed DA Form 2515 apnroving the advancement upon
attainment of eliibility.   Effective !fay 22, 1973, Mr. Davies was
changed to a lower erade as a result of a reduction-in-force (RIP)
action from GS-12, step 7, $20,018 per annum, to GS-11, step 10,
with a saved rate of pay of $20,018 per annum, not to exceed
May 21, 1975.

     The record also shows that in October 1972, during Mr. Davies'
waiting period, the pay period cycle for General Schedule employees
at Fort Bliss had been modified as a result of the conversion of
the civilian pay system for Fifth U.S. Army from manual to com-
puterized.  As a result of this conversion there was a shortened
1-week pay period in October 1972 which changed the beginning dates
