"Whole Person Concept" - it's not just your exam scores that get you advanced, it's your Final Multiple Score (FMS)

July 28, 2010 at 5:57am

The FMS is a "Whole Person Concept" approach that considers your exam score along with other factors to ensure the right Sailors are advanced. The other factors considered for E4/5/6 are Performance Mark Average (how well you perform in your job and as a Sailor), Service in Paygrade (experience in your job), Awards (your accomplishments in your job and as a Sailor), Education Points (self improvement through education (accredited college degrees), and PNA points (credit for doing great on previous exam cycles but not enough quotas available).

For those who are CPO board eligible, the FMS is computed using Performance Mark Average and rating exam score only.

What is your advancement "opportunity?" The quota for each rating - percentage of Sailors that have an opportunity to advance each cycle - is the most important advancement factor. Some ratings have limited quotas, so the Navy works hard to advance the most qualified Sailors using the Whole Person Concept.

The biggest problem is the PMA varies from department to department, division to division, and rating to

rating. Likewise race, sex, religion, ethnic group, and rated v non-rated can and do affect the PMA.

Often, it ensures the wrong person is promoted.

To be honest, the Navy needs to fix the performance evaluation system it uses.

I believe this is why the FMS advancement model exist..
