New
staffing pattern ok'd; DBM next step
by Junelyn dela Rosa
A proposal calling for new organizational
structure and staffing pattern in the Bureau of Agricultural
Research has been approved by the Agricultural Bureaucracy
Restructuring Plan (ABRP) Committee led by USEC Arsenio
M. Balisacan.
However the Committe stressed the need
for a concrete rationale for the number of requested
positions prior to aproval by the Department of BUdget
and Management.
The new staffing pattermn calls for a
total of 254 positions in order to meet the stafing
needs of the Bureau. At present, there are only 66 plantilla
positions. Hence, 188 positions are still required to
satisfy the proposal. Some of the existing positions
will either be upgraded/reclassified or changed titles.
The ABRP also recommended that of the additional 188
positions required by the Bureau, 47 shall caome from
DA agencies whihc were downsized due to the restructuring.
The remaining 141 positions shall be included in the
BAR's budget on a three-year period starting Calendar
Year 2001, with 47 new positions added each year until
the requirement is fully satisfied. The increase in
the manpower complement of the Bureau is in response
to its role as the principal orchestrator of the country's
research and devlopment system.
With regard to the revised BA organizational
structre, the Bureau will be directly under the Office
of teh secretary of Agriculture. also, the Bureau proposed
10 key reasult areas that will provide the basis for
the organizational structure. These are:
- National R&D Programs;
- Regional R&D Programs;
- Impact Assessment, Monitoring and Policy;
- Institutional Development;
- Knowledge Products and Services;
- R&D Information Technology;
- Public and International Relations;
- Project Developemnt for External Funding;
- Financial Management, and;
- Administrative Services
