Making Decisions about Civilian Personnel Management Research in the Army: Part 2. Army Road Map

Abstract

The objective of this effort was to provide decision makers and researchers with an information-based tool for assessing the general nature and magnitude of research efforts necessary for making long-term improvements in the management of Army civilian personnel. It is part of a follow-up activity to an earlier study that identified potential topics for research in this area. This report's companion document, Establishing Priorities for Civilian Personnel Management Research in the Army, prioritized the research areas identified in the earlier study. The information in this document relates to considerations affecting the decisions of whether (and when) to initiate a given research effort, and includes such factors as the following: (a) the interrelationships among research activities, (b) the preliminary research required before particular research questions can be addressed, (c) the approximate personnel and time needed to complete research tasks, and (d) the efficiencies to be gained by consolidating research activities that are methodologically or conceptually linked.
