Manpower and Personnel Standardization Language for Army Systems

Abstract

Of the six technical domains in the Army MANPRINT program, only two (manpower and personnel) are not comprehensively covered by military standards and specifications. This report contains language that, if added to some standard or specification, would place manpower and personnel on the same footing within the Department of Defense Standardization power and personnel on the same footing within the Department of Defense Standardization Program as the other four MANPRINT domains (training, safety, human factors engineering, and health hazards). The report proposes two feasible alternatives for adding this language to existing standardization documents (including data item descriptions). This report is intended to document the MANPRINT requirements for manpower and personnel in system development, where the focus is on operability and battlefield effectiveness (not system supportability, as in integrated logistics support).
