(4) Management Approach to Staffing

22nd Century feels we are fully capable of providing the required personnel support and we plan
to bid for this opportunity as a Prime contractor if this opportunity comes out under SB Category
Recruiting Personnel: 22nd Century recruiting methodology is designed to attract and retain
personnel that have the requisite skills to serve our customer, as well as fit in with our serviceoriented culture. As staffing requirements are tasked to 22nd Century, we will follow a 9-step
Staffing Approach to ensure that qualified, committed personnel are identified and retained
throughout contract performance. This approach will also be used to handle staff vacancies or to
augment existing contract staff. From our experience we have derived that our process results in
an average position fill time of 1.21 weeks.
1. Plan22nd Century executes comprehensive planning for the staffing of qualified personnel.
This begins with detailed breakdowns of contract requirements, identification of specialized
skills for each NSSA ITSS task, required
education, certifications, skills, and knowledge
of the environment. During this stage,
Solutions
Managers
with
technical
backgrounds develop Recruiting Checklists
that include position titles, work location, labor
categories, required certifications, required
years of experience, and any other required
skills/qualifications. Recruiters use these
Checklists as the basis of their recruiting
efforts for both internal and external
candidates.
2. SourceOur Advanced Recruitment

Our team recruiting philosophy centers on Making the Right Match. 22nd Century defines this

3-5. Screen/ Interview/ OfferRecruiters screen potential personnel by conducting preliminary
interviews via phone. This screening is done to confirm skills, experience, and other
qualifications listed on the resumes to ensure we have a match. The Hiring Manager makes the
final decision to hire or reject each interviewed candidate and promptly inform Recruiters of
their decision. Recruiters contact all candidates with a follow-up to the interview and gather
input on the 22nd Century recruiting process to integrate future improvements. During this stage,
22nd Century performs a National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) background
investigation to validate education, experience, certifications, and references, as well as legal,
credit, and citizenship checks. The Offer is extended to the selected candidates by the Hiring
Manager.
6. OnboardOnce candidates accept their offer letter, 22nd Century onboards the staff as
rapidly as possible. Recruiters schedule orientation, wherein new employees become familiar

internal mentor to ensure rapid acclimation into the team and provides any necessary resources
for the new employee to fulfill their job responsibilities.
Retaining Personnel: 22nd Century believes that employees need to be challenged and rewarded
to enable high productivity and continued commitment to their employer. Our Retention
Program accounts for this, offering short, mid and long-term incentives that improve staff
continuity, retains domain knowledge, and improves customer satisfaction. The IRP has
historically resulted in a retention rate of 95% of professional employees.
7. Measure Performance- To ensure deliverables are met and that the team retains the most
effective workers, 22nd Century management continuously measures staff performance through
Goals and Responsibilities agreements and employee bi-weekly reporting. Leveraging these
tools, our management representative will monitor and measure performance of personnel. These
parameters are measurable and relevant to each position, measured through deliverables, and
agreed upon by the PM and each employee. Bonuses are tied to these parameters and are given to
individuals who meet or exceed their goals. Quarterly, our management representative will
provide progress reviews for each employee with a detailed performance assessment. This
enables identification of opportunities for improvement to ensure quality output for NSSA ITSS.
8. RetainA critical part of our recruiting methodology for the contract is to attract top talent
and retain our workforce based on the Hire and Retain Program developed and implemented by
our Human Resources (HR) Department. The application of the critical elements of this program
has resulted in retention of 95% of our staff over the past five years. 22nd Centurys
