Feasibility of Modelling the Supply of Older-Age Accessions

Abstract

Currently, there are no models for the supply of older-age enlistees. Consequently manpower planners can neither accurately forecast the supply of these individuals nor evaluate alternative policies to achieve the desired level of accessions. This report presents the results of an analysis to determine the feasibility of conducting accession supply modelling for older-age individuals. Current recruiting and demographic trends indicate a need for such modelling. The methodology of supply models is discussed and the availability of data is assessed. The report concludes that it is feasible to model the supply of older- age enlistees and discusses procedures for undertaking such supply modelling.
