An Equilibrium Flow Model of the Navy's Enlisted Personnel Rotation Process

Abstract

The periodic rotation of enlisted personnel between sea duty and shore duty assignments is a firmly established Navy policy. The efficiency with which the rotation process is managed, however, can have an effect on both the personnel readiness of operating units and the morale of the individual Navy man. The report describes a computerized model of the rotation process which will provide rotation managers in the Bureau of Naval Personnel with a quantitative basis for decisions, and the capability for the test and evaluation of rotation policy. The model encompasses the basic variables and parameters governing the movements of personnel between the broad categories of sea duty and shore duty.
