OPM releases new data, visuals, or features to the FWD site at least once in each calendar month going forward.
Source summary
The U.S. Office of Personnel Management launched the Federal Workforce Data (FWD) website at data.opm.gov to replace the older FedScope system. The platform offers predictable monthly updates, interactive visualizations, downloadable datasets, and greater transparency about data quality. It expands publicly available information—adding fields such as retirement eligibility, telework, administrative leave, performance ratings, and hiring activity—and will receive ongoing updates based on user feedback.
