Where did DON CIO get the data for the reports?
Both groups used a wide range of data sources for inputs. The Civilian Working Group relied heavily on the Defense Civilian Personnel Data System (DCPDS), the Commercial Activity (CA) Inventory, and the DON IM/IT Guidance for Inherently Governmental Functions. The Military Working Group had a broad range of sources, including personnel databases managed by the military manpower organizations, as well as the Total Force Manpower Management System (TFMMS), Integrated Battleforce Training (IBFT), Navy Training Management and Planning System (NTMPS), and the Marine Corps Table of Manpower Requirements (T/MR). In addition, the Military Working Group worked with many other organizations and working groups/study groups across the DON, such as the Navy’s Training and Education Integrated Warfare Assessment Review (IWAR) group, the Navy Fleet Support Officer Review, the Marine Corps Restricted Officer Review, and the Communication and Information Systems Network Working Group.
