In Plain English,
"manpower and personnel involves the identification and
acquisition of personnel (military & civilian) with the
skills and grades required to operate, maintain, and
support systems over their lifetime. Early
identification is essential. If the needed manpower is
an additive requirement to existing manpower levels of
an organization, a formalized process for identification
and justification must be made to higher authority.
Add to this, the necessity to train these persons new
and existing, in their respective functions on the new
system, and the seriousness of any delays in the
accomplishment of this element become apparent. In
the case of military requirements, manpower needs can,
and in many cases do, ripple all the way back to
requiting quotas." Credit to Richard A. Andrews, CPL |
