The Department’s Strategic Plan states that DOJ’s “most important resource is its people.... The DOJ mission and our strategic goals could not be achieved without these loyal, skilled, and dedicated employees.” Similarly, the Government Accountability Office Comptroller General has noted that “the key competitive difference in the 21st century will be people. It will not be process. It will not be technology. It will be people.” EOIR’s largest expenditure each year is in the area of personnel services and benefits.
