 Readiness

Definition

The degree of readiness and armed forces classification of a force element.

Use

To accurately describe and identify force elements, you can enter their degree of readiness and arrange them by armed forces classification.

Structure

The following fields/field groups are available in the Structures Workbench on the Readiness tab page:

  • Level of Readiness (in %)

    The level of the current readiness of a force element in terms of material, personnel, and training.

    You specify (in percent) the level of readiness of personnel, material, and training in terms of the current actual level of readiness. The threshold values determine the color of the traffic-light symbols (green = ready for action, yellow = partly ready for action, red = out of action) that are used to represent the level of readiness.

    • Personnel

      You enter the level of readiness of the personnel, in percent.

    • Material

      You enter the level of readiness of the material, in percent.

    • Training

      You enter the level of readiness with regard to the training status, in percent.

      In each subsequent Comment field, you can enter an explanatory text.

      The data for the level of readiness is stored in table /ISDFPS/FORCE .

      In Customizing for Defense Forces & Public Security , you define the threshold values (in percent) by choosing Start of the navigation path Organizational Flexibility Next navigation step Force Element Next navigation step Evaluate Level of Readiness End of the navigation path .

      The threshold values can be overridden for each force element.To do so, choose Create Thresholds and enter the required values. All nine threshold values must be specified. When you create these threshold values, you override the:

    • Threshold values defined in Customizing

    • Overridden threshold values of higher-level force elements

      These threshold values are stored in table /ISDFPS/FORCE_PRIO and are passed on to lower-level force elements.

      Note Note

      If necessary, you can choose Update Structure Tree to update the data immediately. Note, however, that this can take some time, depending on the number of objects concerned.

      End of the note.

Integration

Besides specifying the degree of readiness manually, you can also configure the system to calculate the degree of readiness automatically. For more information, see Determination of Readiness Using Weighting .
