IOintern,
Welcome to update 3 of my project to analyze job categories based on KSAOs.
When I last wrote, I was experiencing some difficulty in determining the
proper ratio of positions to allow for growth to higher paygrades. It is
disappointing to report that in the past couple of weeks I have made little
progress on the research front. I have decided instead to base the
structural determination on a simulation based on the previous 10 years loss
rates, promotion rates, and time delay between promotion points. Setting up
the simulation up has taken much of the time I have been able to devote to
the project.
So where I stand on the project is simple.
1) KSAO based categorization is complete.
2) SME feedback collected and adjudicated.
3) Position structure assessment to determine minimum size and
structure: I am finalizing the simulation and will need to analyze the
outputs. The inputs have been identified and formatted.
4) Background research is mostly complete; however I am still searching
for some reference material and historic internal documentation.
5) Final paper: still to be completed.
My immediate plans are to run and analyze the simulation (with the help of a
sharp Industrial Engineer) and to begin wrapping up the analysis.
Thank you,
Tom Olenchock
