A Tool Reduction Study for Air Force Civil Engineering Prime Beef Contingency Teams.

Abstract

In 1963, the Air Force Civil Engineering Base Engineer Emergency Force (Prime BEEF) concept was implemented. The Prime BEEF mission is to provide immediate worldwide emergency support to Air Force units, and its members are provided with resources to accomplish this mission. Because resources are continually being reduced throughout all Air Force organizations, the authors investigated the possibility that Contingency-Team tool resources could be reduced to a more efficient level without impairing mission effectiveness. Results obtained by questionnaire indicated that a majority of the population of Contingency-Team members believed that the proposed tool reductions would impair mission effectiveness.
