Report To The Congress


OF THE UNITED STATES


Lack Of Control And Feedback

Hinders Army Manpower

Management Improvements

The Army's manpower management system has
major shortcomings which GAO discussed in prior
reports. The Army has recently consolidated many
headquarters manpower functions and has taken
steps to solve other problems. But major weak-
nesses will not be solved until the Army's top man-
agement makes a long-term commitment to es-
tablish a control and feedback system for managing
human resources. Over 50 percent of total Army
dollars is used for human resources.

The Army needs to

     --define and implement accountability for all
     manpower actions,

     --link its major manpower activities to a
     common data base,

     --use workload information to determine
     manpower needs at the operational level,


--provide the information and incentive for
top-level managers to make the best use of
the total labor force, and

--insure adequate development and availabil-
ity of professional staff for manpower
functions.
