The HARDMAN study was conducted to analyze the current manpower and training requirements, reporting and review structure as it applies to the Weapon systems acquisition Process (WSAP) and to develop to the extent necessary a new manpower and training requirements, analysis and review process which could be integrated into the acquisition process. The study's principal objective was to: Insure explicit consideration of manpower/training resource requirements early in the WSAP. This report presents the findings and recommendations of the HARDMAN Study. Procedures have been identified, along with analytical tools and supporting methodologies, which are complementary to the WSAP and which will ensure that manpower and training information is available prior to finalizing policy decisions on weapon procurements.
