As this is an evaluation of potential for civilians, I am surprised that the Senior Executive Service (SES) Executive Core Qualifications (ECQs) are not a part of the evaluation. Is this something that SRs are advised to consider?

During the initial implementation of the SRPE in 2001, SES ECQs were considered. It was determined that in order to mirror the military evaluation report, those competencies would NOT be utilized for the SRPE. However, rater and SR comments relative to the achievement/demonstration of SES ECQs, would speak very loudly about the AAW’s potential for positions of higher grade, requirement, etc., and would not discourage that approach.
