DOE-STD-1177-2004
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
FUNCTIONAL AREA QUALIFICATION STANDARD
Emergency Management
PURPOSE
DOE M 426.1-1, Federal Technical Capability Manual, commits the Department to continuously
strive for technical excellence. The Technical Qualification Program, along with the supporting
Technical Qualification Standards, complements the personnel processes that support the
Department's drive for technical excellence. In support of this goal, the competency requirements
defined in the Technical Qualification Standards should be aligned with and integrated into the
recruitment and staffing processes for technical positions. The Technical Qualification Standards
should form the primary basis for developing vacancy announcements, qualification requirements,
crediting plans, interviewing questions, and other criteria associated with the recruitment, selection,
and internal placement of technical personnel. Office of Personnel Management minimum
qualifications standards will be greatly enhanced by application of appropriate materials from the
technical Functional Area Qualification Standards.
The Technical Qualification Standards are not intended to replace the OPM Qualifications
Standards nor other Departmental personnel standards, rules, plans, or processes. The primary
purpose of the Technical Qualification Program is to ensure that employees have the requisite
technical competency to support the mission of the Department. The Technical Qualification
Program forms the basis for the development and assignment of DOE personnel responsible for
ensuring the safe operation of defense nuclear facilities.
APPLICABILITY
The Emergency Management Functional Area Qualification Standard establishes common
functional area competency requirements for Department of Energy personnel who provide
assistance, direction, guidance, oversight, or evaluation of contractor technical activities that could
impact the safe operation of DOE's defense nuclear facilities. The technical Functional Area
Qualification Standard has been developed as a tool to assist DOE Program and Field offices in
the development and implementation of the Technical Qualification Program in their organization.
For ease of transportability of qualifications between DOE elements, Program and Field offices are
expected to use this technical Functional Area Qualification Standard without modification or
additions. Ne eded additional office/site/facility specific technical competencies should be handled
separately. Satisfactory and documented attainment of the competency requirements contained in
this technical Functional Area Qualification Standard ensures that personnel possess the requisite
competence to fulfill their functional area duties and responsibilities. Office/Facility-Specific
Qualification Standards supplement this technical Functional Area Qualification Standard and
establish unique operational competency requirements at the Headquarters or Field element, site,
or facility level.
