Feds Turn to E-Mail to Speed Clearances

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) reportedly will try electronic transfer as a means to speed security clearance processing. In a pilot program to begin before October 1, OPM will electronically submit completed investigations to the Army security office for adjudication. The measure is expected to cut up to two weeks off security clearance processing time, helping facilitate meeting deadlines set by Congress.
