Air Force Human Resources Laboratory Military Personnel Costing Conference.

Abstract

The conference was the initial step in an R and D project to develop and demonstrate a family of techniques to generate standard personnel cost data for use in: (1) Weapon system design engineering; (2) weapon system life cycle support operations; and (3) personnel/manpower budgeting. It was organized to provide technical guidance in directing the efforts of this project. Representatives from various organizations within Air Force Headquarters, Tactical Air Command, Air Force Systems Command, Air Training Command, Air Force Logistics Command, and the United States Naval Research Laboratory comprised the membership. The objectives were: (1) identify and summarize the various concepts and practices of personnel costing and how they relate to system engineering design, system support, and various command level personnel, manpower, and budgetary activities; (2) identify the 'users' of personnel cost data, their present requirements and uses for it, and their desires for new types or formats of such data; (3) ascertain what has been accomplished by other agencies that could be adapted to satisfy in part/whole the requirements identified in objective 2 and identify work currently in progress which might be applicable; and (4) summarize the most pressing research goals and requirements.
