3–11. Army Senior Rater Profile Explained

c. Senior Rater Profile report.

Tracks the rating history of each senior rater for officers of all components by rank (2LT through COL), warrant officers by rank (WO1 through CW4), and NCOs by rank (SSG through CSM).

Senior raters do not maintain a profile on officers in the ranks of BG, warrant officers in the ranks of CW5, and NCOs in the ranks of CPL through SGT.

Retired officers and NCOs recalled to active duty are not included in the profile population (see paras 3–2g and 3–33).

The information in the profile and other administrative information is available to the senior rater or senior rater’s designated representative using the Senior Rater Profile report.

In addition, this report provides information on the timeliness of a senior rater’s OER and NCOER submissions to HQDA.

(1)

For officers and NCOs in applicable ranks, the senior rater’s profile as reflected on the Senior Rater Profile report will—

(a)

Emphasize the importance of the senior rater’s role and responsibility to provide credible information to HQDA.

This is one of the senior rater’s most critical actions.

It affects decisions regarding the Army’s future leadership and has great impact on how the Army accomplishes its missions.

(b)

Emphasize the importance of a senior rater’s sequencing of OER and NCOER submissions.

Within a senior rater’s profile, HQDA will always process OERs and NCOERs daily in the order received, based on the date and time of receipt, regardless of the “Thru” date of the OER or NCOER.

(c)

Provide information to HQDA selection boards and the Army leadership on the senior rater’s profile history as a means of disciplining the rating system.

For example, senior raters must maintain a “Most Qualified” percentage of less than 50 percent on OERs and 24 percent or less on NCOERs (see DA Pam 623–3).

(d)

Continue without interruption as the senior rater (in either a military or civilian status) moves from job to job.

(e)

Follow the senior rater as long as they are eligible to provide senior rater evaluations to Army officers and NCOs in applicable ranks.

(f)

Be authorized for placement (first page summary) in the senior rater’s AMHRR and may be updated annually or as necessary.

(2)

The first page of Senior Rater Profile report consists of three sections.

The top portion shows administrative data, the left side of the report shows current OER and NCOER profile information (that is, profile information since the last restart), and the right side shows profile information that is cumulative, irrespective of any restart.

(3)

The second (and subsequent, if any) page of a Senior Rater Profile report provides a chronological by-name and by-rank list of all officers and NCOs senior rated by the rating official and the HQDA electronically generated label applied to their reports.

(This listing allows senior raters the ability to check the system and track how and when their ratings are profiled at HQDA.)

Within a senior rater’s profile, HQDA will always process OERs and NCOERs in the order they are received.

(4)

For assistance in managing senior rater profiles and OER/NCOER sequencing, senior raters are encouraged to use EES and the online Senior Rater Profile report application along with the Senior Rater Evaluation Timeliness report.

EES is designed to give visibility to senior raters and their designated representatives on the processing of OERs and NCOERs for the senior rater’s profile.

Users will need a CAC.

EES and Senior Rater Profile report are accessible at https://evaluations.hrc.army.mil/.

(5)

OERs and NCOERs received at HQDA containing an “Most Qualified,” “Multi-Star Potential,” or “Promote to BG” rating for a particular grade not supported by the senior rater’s profile (that is, a report received causing the senior rater’s rating profile for a particular grade to be greater than the allowable percentage) will result with the OER or NCOER receiving an HQDA label supported by the next lower rating (that is, “Most Qualified” receiving a “Highly Qualified” or “Multi-Star Potential” receiving a “Promote to BG” or “Retain as Colonel,” as applicable, HQDA label) with the initial rating (as indicated by the senior rater) counting against the senior rater’s profile as a documented misfire.

Note.

Remember that for the final completed OER to maintain the “Most Qualified” HQDA label, senior raters of 2LT through LTC officers are required to maintain a profile percentage of less than 50 percent for rendered OERs, separated by grade.

For senior raters of COLs, senior raters must manage the upper two assessment boxes.

When managing the upper two boxes for COLs, the “Multi-Star Potential” box must be less than 24 percent of rendered reports, separated by grade and/or the cumulative percentage of the upper two boxes combined must be less than 50 percent of rendered reports, separated by grade.

For the final completed NCOER to maintain the “Most Qualified” HQDA label, senior raters of SSG through CSM NCOs are required to maintain a profile percentage of no more than 24 percent for rendered NCOERs, separated by grade.

The Senior Rater Evaluation Timeliness report resides as a section of the Senior Rater Profile report.

(a)

The timeliness report compiles information on Army OERs and NCOERs submitted on rated Soldiers after 1 January 2011, by rank.

The timeliness report was reset Armywide on 8 January 2016.

It displays the total number of OERs and NCOERs submitted, the total number of OERs and NCOERs submitted to HQDA on time (received no later than 90 days after the “Thru” date of OERs and NCOERs), and the percentage of OERs and NCOERs submitted to HQDA on time.

This cover page is authorized for placement in the senior rater’s AMHRR and can be updated annually, or as necessary.

Note.

Data for ARNG DA Form 2166–8 (NCO Evaluation Report) will not display on the Senior Rater Evaluation Timeliness report as these reports previously processed at the state level.

(b)

The second (and subsequent, if any) page displays administrative information on the specific OERs and NCOERs that were not submitted on time.

(c)

A senior rater may view their evaluation timeliness report at any time using the online Senior Rater Profile report application, which is accessible from the same location indicated for EES in paragraph 3–11c(4).
