Long Range Enlisted Manpower Requirements Estimation,

Abstract

The Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) has recently placed emphasis on the earlier and more thorough estimation of weapon system resource requirements in the acquisition process. This emphasis resulted from a recognition that: Manpower is becoming increasingly scarce and expensive, Weapon systems are becoming more and more technologically complex, and Efforts to shorten the acquisition cycle impose a need for earlier manpower planning. The environment created by these conditions is one that imposes a requirement for early manpower planning, and close coordination between manpower planners and system designers, in order to effectively field, operate, and maintain weapon systems.
