OPTEMPO (Operational Tempo) and Training Effectiveness.

Abstract

The primary purpose of nondeployed operations is to prepare personnel for deployment. This paper looks at evidence amassed to date of the association between nondeployed activities and training readiness. For ships, activity is measured in alternative models by fuel consumption, days underway per quarter, and time spent in particular underway activities such as training, operations, and transit. For aircraft, the value of nondeployed flying hours is measured in alternative models by test scores, landing proficiency, and bombing accuracy. Results confirm a positive association between nondeployed activity and training readiness for both ships and aircraft.
