The document provides a step-by-step explanation of the Perform to Serve (PTS) algorithm used to evaluate Sailors' applications for reenlistment each month. It explains that Sailors are first evaluated based on their commanding officer's recommendation for retention. They are then ranked based on factors like paygrade, selection for advancement, evaluation scores, critical job qualifications, physical fitness, and time until end of service. Sailors who score higher in these areas will be prioritized to receive one of the limited number of quotas available each month for reenlistment.
Pts stack
- 1. It is critical that every Sailor clearly understands the Perform To Serve (PTS) Algorithm. Below is a flowchart that shows a step-by-step process for an INRATE PTS Quota. Each month your PTS application will be measured against your peers within the same Year Group. Year Group (YG) is defined as the Fiscal Year (FY) that you entered Recruit Training (i.e., Bootcamp). For example, if you went to Recruit Training Command (RTC) on 1 October 2007, you are in Year Group 2008 (YG-08). Each Sailor who applies on time is guaranteed to receive a total of six (6) looks (1 per month). Entry Point: Sailors in Highest Sailors selected for CO’s Paygrades advancement but not Recommendation for Retention yet advanced (Frocked) required to enter the PTS Stacking Sailors who hold Cumulative Average of Proximity to PFA Critical NECs up to the 5 most recent SEAOS Evaluations Final Results to ECM for MILPERSMAN ART 1160-030 Case Members must be Promotable and Below is the r’ Review recommended for advancement on the Last (2) Graded Evaluations to be Reenlistment Eligible (Professional Growth Criteria)
- 2. Here’s How It Works… The “Rack and Stack” Process At end of month, applications collected—FR-PTS remains open Fleet RIDE sorts applications by EMC code Year Group (YG) *Algorithm is run* CO’s recommendation for retention verified, applications sorted by: -Paygrade -Selected for advancement, but not advanced -Average of up to last five evaluations -Critical NECs held -PFA performance (number of failures in last 4 years) -Proximity to SEAOS/decision point -Based on ECMs review of “rack and stack” results and quotas available, quotas are granted/denied
- 3. Now, let’s break it down to each “Step” Step 1: CO’s Recommendation for Retention • Your most recent Eval must indicate that you are recommended for retention. • This is the most important factor and the reason that it is the first step of the PTS algorithm. How you perform on a daily basis determines the Commanding Officer’s decision on your Commanding Officers’ decision on your retention recommendation. Your chain of command provides input on your recommendation for retention. Step 2: Paygrade • Highest paygrade stacks to top • The key to Perform To Serve (PTS) since 2003 has been advancement at the earliest opportunity possible. • YOU are in complete control of preparing for advancement (i.e., STUDY). • Preparing for Advancement • START EARLY--don’t wait until the last minute! • Make sure all eligibility requirements are met! • Ensure that you know about the tools to help you succeed (Bibliography, schools, profile sheets, etc.)! • Use the Advancement Exam Strategy Guide (AESG) to help focus on study plan! • Verify all your information is current and accurate on worksheet and answer sheet! Step 3: Frocked • The system will look at you as if you are in a higher paygrade. Therefore, you will “Stack” above your peers who failed to select for advancement. Step 4: Evaluations • Average of up to last five EVALs (EP=5, MP=4, P=3,etc, not trait average); NOB accounted for but not factored in algorithm. For example: Petty Officer Jones has 5 evaluations: EP, EP, MP, P, EP = 22 divided by 5 = 4.4 average • Keep track of your significant accomplishments during the reporting period to ensure that your supervisor has a solid input on your performance. • It is YOUR responsibility to ensure that your record is up-to-date and accurate.

- 4. Step 5: Critical NEC held • Those with a critical Navy Enlisted Classification code (NEC) will be stacked above non-critical/No NEC Sailors. • NECs can be earned by attendance at Navy Schools (i.e., “C” Schools). • To see if you have a Critical NEC, review the Critical NEC listing located on the Fleet RIDE-PTS webpage at: http://www.npc.navy.mil/CareerInfo/PerformtoServe/ Step 6: Number of PFA failures in last four years • Algorithm only counts number of failures. • Culture of Fitness – Ensure that you remain within Navy PFA standards at ALL TIMES! Step 7: Time remaining to SEAOS/decision point • This is only used in the event of a tie breaker between otherwise equally matched Sailors. • Example: For two like Sailors who equally stack through Step 6 and “Sailor A” has a Soft EAOS (EAOS plus extension) within the next 11 months. “Sailor B” has a Soft EAOS (EAOS plus extension) within the next 8 months. Sailor B gets the PTS quota due to proximity to SEAOS. Step 8: Enlisted Community Manager Final Review • Enlisted Community Managers (ECMs) reviews for content and accuracy after the “Rack and Stack” process to ensure that the “Right Sailor” secures a quota. • Areas of consideration are: Recent NJPs, Loss of Security Clearance, Non-obtainment of Warfare Qualifications, PFA Failures. • Sailors who have sufficient time left on their current contract to obligate for PCS orders may not receive a PTS quota because PTS is not yet required for these individuals, unless they are in an SRB eligible rating.
