Case Studieson April 13th, 2006No Comments

The Navy has embarked upon an ambitious goal called Sea Warrior – to integrate the Navy’s Manpower , Personnel, and Training organizations (MPT), both Active and Reserve, into a single, efficient, information-rich human resource management system.

Through Sea Warrior , Navy Detailers can identify Sailors’ precise capabilities and match them to well-articulated job requirements that far exceed the simplistic criteria used today. In addition, by using the system, the Navy will implement different types of incentives and flexible rotation dates and move the Navy toward a job-based compensation system.
