An Analysis of Naval Personnel Resource Allocations to Logistics. Volume II. Methodology for Examining Effects of Personnel Shortfalls on Navy Logistics Personnel Readiness.

Abstract

The objective of the research described in this Volume (Volume II) was to develop and demonstrate the use of a methodology that would be useful in examining the effects of personnel shortfalls by Navy personnel readiness relative to the broad area of logistics support and also to selected subareas of logistics such as maintenance, own-unit support, and supply. Following an introductory chapter, Chapter II presents a summary of the methodology developed and the results of an illustrative example used to demonstrate the use of this methodology in examining personnel shortfall effects on Navy Logistics personnel readiness. In Chapter III, the basic data bases that were available for use in this analysis are described. The methodology that was developed to satisfy the objective of this analysis is then described in Chapter IV, including a summary description of the computer program UALLOC designed to optimize Navy-wide logistics personnel readiness for various levels of personnel shortfalls. Chapter V then presents an illustrative example of this methodology in examining the effects of personnel shortfalls on Naval logistics personnel readiness. This chapter also includes a brief critique of the methodology and indicates additional steps that could be implemented to improve on the usefulness of this type of approach to personnel readiness evaluation.
