Engineer Workload Factors (FASTALS (Force Analysis Simulation of Theater Administrative and Logistics Support) Construction Model).

Abstract

This study analyzed the engineer workload factors used in the Force Analysis Simulation of Theater Administrative and Logistics Support (FASTALS) Construction Model, which calculates the engineer requirements needed to accomplish 23 engineer tasks in support of contingency operations in Europe, Southwest Asia, and Northwest Asia. The study evaluated the engineer manhour effort required to accomplish a unit portion of each of the 23 tasks in each of the three theaters. Based on that evaluation, changes or adjustments to the model's workload factors were recommended for each of the model's 23 tasks. All the work estimates that were used to support changes or adjustments to the model's workload factors are fully documented so they can be reviewed and revised, as necessary. Keywords: Construction (Wartime); Damage repair; Maintenance; Contingency planning; Planning factors; Force structure; Engineer; Data base.
