Answers |
| What is Manpower Equipment Force Packaging | The standard method for describing the deployment characteristics of Air Force personnel and equipment contained in standard, predefined manpower and equipment force requirements packages called unit type codes |
| What are the two MEFPAK subsystems | The Manpower Force Packaging System (MANFOR) and the Logistics Force Packaging System (LOGFOR) |
| How are deployment force manpower requirements defined | Using management engineering tools and techniques, mission capabilities, and workload described in the MISCAP statement |
| What constitutes a standard wartime deployable package | An approved UTC with its associated manpower and equipment constitutes a standard wartime deployable package |
| When are new UTCs requested | When deployable units experience a significant change in either operational concept or mission, significant program changes occur in manpower or equipment, and significant program or operational changes reduce a unit's SORTS C-level below C-2 |
| Why are MEFPAK responsible commands tasked annually to review UTCs | To ensure the accuracy and currency of the title, MISCAP statement, and manpower detail of its UTCs |
| For what is the TPFDD the primary concern and central foundation | Force planning, logistics planning, movement scheduling, and plan execution |
| Who is responsible for developing and managing planning and execution requirements for TPFDD development | Funtional area managers (FAM) |
| What does the TPFDD contain | Time-phased force data, non-unit-related cargo and personnel data, and movement data for an operations plan |
| What type of TPFDD is associated with OPLANs | Capabilities TPFDD |
| What is the objective of TPFDD maintenance | Systematically and effecively infcorporate changes to TPFDD files required to maintan as up-to-date as possible the database of phased forces, materiel, and sustainment that makes up the combatant commander's concept |
| Who is responsible for keeping the TPFDD current | Supported commanders, with the USTRANSCOM playing a key role |
| What are the three MAJCOM modules of DCAPES | Operation Planning Module (OPSMOD), Logistics Module (LOGMOD-M), and Manpower and Personnel Module (MANPER-M) |
| Which two systems interface with OPSMOD | LOGMOD-M and MANPER-M |
| What are the four subsystems of MANPER-M | MONFOR, DRMD plan generation, MANREQ, and personnel status monitoring subsystem |
| Why is the DRMD plan generation subsystem important to MO and MPF planners | They use it for creating and maintaining the DRMD and unit tasking information |
| What system allows base-level planners to define UTC manpower requirements | Manpower and Personnel Module (base level) (MANPER-B) |
| To what directories does each GEOLOC have access | A home directory (MANPER user's computer) and to its GEOLOC in, Out, and Temp directories (the AFPC server) |
| What is a DRMD | A statement of required manpower to fill the UTC |
| Identify the key to collecting, reporting, and using MEFPAK data | UTC |
| What does a standard UTC reflect | a stement of requirements, identified by a MISCAP statement, and has the complete movement characteristics for that detail |
| Who ensures that an accurate logistic detail is built for the finalized manpower detail | Pilot unit |
| MANFOR is a subsystem of | MEFPAK and DCAPES |
| War planners use UTC to document requirements for | deliberate planning and execution planning |
| The TPFDD is the primary concern and central foundation for | force planning, logistics planning, movement scheduling, and assigning units |
| Name the type of TPFDD associated with the TFA | Requirements |
| TPFDD maintenance focuses on changes that occurred to | deployment data since refinement |
| Who is the final authority for approving changes to OPLAN TPFDD | Supported commander |
| What are the three major command modules of the DCAPES | OPSMOD, LOGMOD-M, and MANPER-M |
| What MAJCOM-level MANPER-M subsystem enables the manpower planner to perform automated analysis of capability in support of joint operation planning | MANREQ |
| What is no a function of the base-level MANPER-B | Generate TDY levy or allocation notice to MPFs |
| Which product is provided by the local MO office | DRMD |
