Development of a USMC Officer Assignment Decision Support System: Needs Assessment
Abstract
The current USMC officer assignment system was evaluated to identify functional and operational deficiencies. Among the problems found were lack of standardization among monitors in assignment procedures, lack of a comprehensive centralized data base and reliance upon the manual, labor-intensive review of data elements. The required capabilities for an Officer Assignment Decision Support System (OADSS) designed to aid monitors in their assignment strategies and to correct deficiencies in the present system were presented. Keywords: Officer personnel, Marine corps personnel, Decision making, Officer assignment, Decision support system, Automated information system.
