Chapter 6. Awards

6.1.1 The Administrator is the final approval authority for SES Presidential Rank submissions, performance awards, and cash incentive awards, unless otherwise delegated (incentive awards only). Award types include:

a. Performance awards that recognize high quality performance during a one-year appraisal period. To be eligible for an SES performance award, the executive should have received at least a "Successful" rating for service performed in an SES career appointment. Award amounts are made in accordance with Performance Awards, 5 CFR 534.405.

b. Presidential Rank Awards (PRAs) that recognize extraordinary or sustained accomplishment over at least a three-year period as a member of the SES or equivalent. Eligible SES members hold career appointments and have at least three years of career or career-type Federal service at the SES level.

c. Superior Accomplishment Awards (SAAs) that recognize a specific accomplishment achieved through an individual effort in the form of a one-time non-recurring nature that is not tied to overall performance. SAAs above $10,000 are approved by OPM.

d. Other awards as authorized by law to recognize a single, significant act or contribution that is not tied to overall performance.

6.1.2 The cost of all awards, including PRAs, is borne by the employing agency.
