WASHINGTON – The Career Program 26 – Manpower and Force Management (CP26) Proponency Office gave an overview of Army manpower and force management during the Career Program 12 (Safety and Occupational Health) summit held at the Mark Center, Alexandria, Virginia, May 25 and 26.
Beryl Hancock, Chief, Manpower Policy, Plans and Programs Division and Chief of the CP26 Proponency Office welcomed the opportunity to review the important roles manpower and force managers have in supporting the Army.
“Speaking at the CP12 summit was important, as we [the CP26 Proponency Office] were able to reach an audience beyond our usual community, ” said Hancock. “Manpower and force management is a complex process. Sharing the building blocks of it with different civilian career programs helps not only us, but it also helps the safety officers. They will have a better understanding of the processes we use to allocate scarce manpower authorizations.”
The CP12 Summit brought together senior CP12’s from across the Army to discuss various topics of interest and provide professional development training. The Manpower and Force Management session was scheduled for two complete days, in order to maximize the reach of this information to the CP12 community.
“I am absolutely enjoying this session. The way the material has been presented reinforced a lot of information and helped me gain a deeper insight into the resource management process,” said David Lumley, Safety Manager, U.S. Training and Doctrine Command at Fort Eustis, Virginia. “As a safety officer I look at the physical risk but the funding risk is what I have trouble expressing.”
“I am very pleased that CP12 invited us to speak at the summit. Visits like this enable us to gather information about what is going on in the field and how the manpower processes impact civilians in different functions as they perform in their day-to-day jobs,” said Hancock. “The Army is constantly changing and this can be a confusing process. Our session was aimed at removing some of the confusion so that CP12 leaders can understand how to approach their manpower needs.”
