An Analysis of Naval Personnel Resource Allocations to Logistics. Volume I. Navy Sea-Based Personnel Resource Allocations to Logistics Functions

摘要

This report is published in two volumes: Volume I - Navy Sea-Based Personnel Resource Allocations to Logistics Functions, and Volume II - Methodology for Examining Effects of Personnel Shortfalls on Navy Logistics Personnel Readiness. The objective of the research described in this volume (Volume I) was to determine the allocation of Navy afloat personnel resources to the broad area of logistics support and also to selected subareas of logistics such as maintenance, own-unit support and supply. Following an introductory chapter, Chapter II presents a summary of the methodology used and the results obtained from the analysis. In Chapter III, a detailed description of the data based used in the analysis is presented. The method used for the analysis is then discussed in Chapter IV, including summary descriptions of the computer programs developed to reduce the data bases and generate the allocation tables used for the analysis. Chapter V then presents a detailed discussion of the results of the analysis, which addresses both the entire sea-based Navy and a notional task force. (Author)
