Chapter 4 – Manpower, Complementing and AccommodationSteps • Produce an Outline BMR for each platform option.• Record assumptions regarding the impact of RN manpowerpolicy and other constraints.• Base the Outline BMR on RN experience with, and TaskAnalysis of, existing or similar platforms and equipment ifequipment fit and maintenance policy is only available at ahigh level. Take account of future operational scenarios andthe effect of automation.• Conduct trade-offs to investigate the WLC of differentmanning profiles in relation to the use of automation. UseOperational Scenario Description, Allocation of Function,Task Synthesis, Role Definition, Job Design and TeamDesign methods to generate the complement options.• Use Complement Validation methods (see the ANEP 21standard in Annex 2 [Ref 22]), e.g. CREW II to estimatenumbers of officers and ratings for each operationalscenario.• Maintain traceability between manning estimates and theinformation and assumptions on which these are based.• Update the PSTAD of personnel for the vessel.Output • The Outline BMR consists of the following:o Outline numbers of officers by rank and brancho Outline numbers of senior ratings by rate and brancho Outline numbers of junior ratings by rate and brancho Outline task descriptions for each personThe manning estimates contribute to the Outline BMR. TheOutline BMR and supporting data contributes to the complementrequirements section of the URD as well as the HFI aspects ofthe SRD.The Outline BMR is supported by working papers to documentthe analysis processes by which manning options are derived(e.g. Task Analysis, CREW II modelling runs, etc.).The information in the outline manning is used to help define thePSTAD, and the information in the outline BMR is to bemaintained in the PSTAD for the platform.HFI ActivitiesNov 2006 Page 4-19 Issue 4
