That's not an unusual arrangement. The award is intended for people whose accomplishments exceed their pay grade. Those qualifying performance measures are expected of people at GS-14 and above. The same happens elsewhere. A General in the Army would not be awarded an Army Achievement Medal; or, an Army Commendation Medal as Generals are expected to perform at that level all the time. They can, of course, still wear those medals if they were awarded when the General held a lower rank.
