Analysis of Fleet and Shore Demands on the Naval Supply Center, San Diego,

Abstract

In developing a system for allocating manpower resources in the Navy, major emphasis was placed on the design of an input-output model to forecast the workload of shore activities based upon the size and distribution of the fleet. In order to test the feasibility of input-output analysis for operational use, a full-scale model of the 11th Naval District is being developed. The structure of input-output analysis requires data on the work output of each shore activity and its destination in the fleet and other shore activities. In addition, the demands placed by the fleet must be disaggregated by ship type, movement, and status. A major effort underway is the collection and organization of data and the empirical analysis of the fleet-shore workload demand network, focusing on 12 major shore activities in the 11th Naval District. This report is concerned with the analysis of workload demand in one of these major shore activities--the Naval Supply Center (NSC) in San Diego. Analysis of the demand on NSC San Diego was made in terms of individual customers, the proportion of fleet demands to shore demands, the feasibility of grouping ships by type, the effect of deployment and overhaul on NSC's workload, and the stability of demand for ship and shore customers.
