Optimal Accession Requirements (OAR) Model.

Abstract

This report is the third in a series describing manpower flow models that may be used to determine accession plans that prevent large surpluses and shortages in various force categories. Previous reports described in the development of quarterly optimization models to determine the allocation of recruits over a 5-year planning horizon. In this effort, a similar optimization technique was used to develop an annual accession model that, while retaining much of the comprehensiveness of the quarterly models, is small enough to allow it to be linked with other personnel forecasting models to form a more comprehensive personnel planning system.
