The updated system of records described in this notice, EXIM Federal Personnel Payroll System (FPPS) enables EXIM's Security Office staff to process EXIM's personnel, payroll, and time and labor data to facilitate payments, benefits, and pensions. FPPS also provides personnel and payroll data to the FPPS Datamart application which EXIM uses to perform queries and report on FPPS information. FPPS is an online personnel and payroll system providing support to Federal agency customers through interagency agreement with the IBC. FPPS is customized to meet customer needs for creating and generating the full life cycle of personnel transactions. FPPS allows for immediate updates and edits of personnel and payroll data. FPPS also handles regulatory requirements such as specialized pay, garnishments, and special appointment programs. FPPS also operates in batch mode for performing close of business, payroll calculation, and other processes. FPPS customers can use a web-enabled interface, WebFPPS, to access FPPS through a web browser to perform personnel and payroll tasks. FPPS is a major application that consists of several minor applications to include time and attendance applications, a system for creating retirement cards and updating retirement records, a system for converting client data for integration into FPPS. The purpose of this system is to ensure proper payment of salary and benefits to EXIM personnel, and to track time worked, leave, or other absences for reporting and compliance purposes. Use of this system will streamline EXIM Bank's personnel, payroll and other human resources functions into a unified, secure system, thereby improving employee input into these systems while enhancing data integrity and security and improving operational efficiency.","document_number":"2026-05931","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/03/27/2026-05931/privacy-act-of-1974-system-of-records","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-03-27/pdf/2026-05931.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-05931.pdf?1774529106","publication_date":"2026-03-27","agencies":[{"raw_name":"EXPORT-IMPORT BANK","name":"Export-Import Bank","id":151,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/export-import-bank","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/151","parent_id":null,"slug":"export-import-bank"}],"excerpts":"forms to <span class=\"match\">perform</span> their duties, and who have been given a password and PIV card to access applicable files within the system. \n • The FPPS system has undergone a formal <span class=\"match\">Security</span> Authorization and Accreditation and has been granted an authority to operate by DOI in accordance with FISMA and NIST standards.
