Abstract:

This research memorandum describes and evaluates the process used by the Navy to set, implement, and execute manpower requirements. Recommendations for improving data bases and the Navys mobilization capacity are provided. The process used by the Navy to address these requirements is divided into three parts 1 requirements determination, 2 billet structuring, and 3 execution. Requirements determination is the Navys method for choosing the proper quality and quantity of personnel needed to operate the Navy in peace and in war. The goal is to provide a feasible, affordable mix active, reserve, and civilian personnel who can meet the Navys peacetime needs and mobilize within a specified interval to meet the Navys wartime needs. Billet structuring is the process through which manpower requirements are organized into actual Navy units, such as a ship or headquarters staff. The execution process involves manning the Navy and includes the distribution of personnel throughout the various commands. The principal functions of this process are recruiting, training, and assignment. Requirements determination is conducted through the four elements of the Navy Manpower Engineering Program NAVMEP the Ship Manpower Document SMD program, the Squadron Manpower Document SQMD program, Shore Manpower Document SHMD program, and the Navy Manpower Mobilization System NAMMOS.
