Abstract:

This report provides a summary of an Air Force advanced development effort, Integration and Application of Human Resource Technologies in Weapon System Design. The project resulted in the development and demonstration of a methodology, the coordinated human resource technology CHRT, and its complementary consolidated data base. The methodology is applicable throughout weapon system acquisition and provides for a the early assessment of the system design and support plan impact on human resources, logistics, and costs, and b the development of a mutually supportive and coordinated training program and technical manual set. Specifically, this report summarizes a the development of CHRT and the CDB, b the demonstration of the CHRT and the CDB on major systems of the Advanced Medium STOL Transport, c CHRT and the CDB as they presently are defined, and d the guidelines for future application of CHRT and the CDB.
