Foundations for Materiel Management Functional Manpower Standards.
Abstract
This project examines the factors that must be considered before meaningful manpower standards can be established for the Directorates of Materiel Mgmt. (D/MMs) within the Air Logistics Centers (ALCs). The project included Systems Analytic discussions with management cadres at each D/MM, surveys of S/MM customers and user directorates, and computer-aided D/MM functional performance profile evaluation by ALC and D/MM executives. Major findings indicate there is no clear agreement among D/MM executives. Major findings indicate there is no clear agreement among D/MM management regarding the functions and roles of the D/MMs. Differences of opinion regarding the functions and roles are greater within each D/MM than across the different ALCs. Useful manpower standards can be established when the functions and roles are more precisely defined and when measures of effectiveness that relate functions to outcomes are developed.
