The Identification of Performance Indicators for the Engineering and Installation of Ground CEM Systems.

Abstract

The Air Force Communications Service (AFCS) mission includes the engineering and installation (EI) of communication-electronics-meteorological (CEM) systems throughout the world. To accomplish this mission requires integrating the efforts of thousands of engineers and installers into a cohesive workforce that utilizes all available resources in an effective and efficient manner. The purpose of this study was to identify the goals and objectives of the Headquarters AFCS staff as they related to the management of EI workforce and to identify performance indicators to increase the effectiveness of that management. A hierarchical and management level framework was developed and both existing AFCS performance indicators and new indicators were integrated into the framework. The research revealed that the AFCS staff had many viable performance indicators and that by matching those existing indicators plus some additional indicators to the goals and objectives, AFCS would be able to continue to perform its EI mission well into the 1980s.
