(2) Conduct SSv Assessments on ACAT I and II combat acquisition systems, as appropriate and required. Provide a copy to ARL–HRED as input to the draft MANPRINT Assessment. e. Through the Director, U.S. Army Communications-Electronics Command (CECOM)— (1) Develop implementing MANPRINT policy and procedures for information technology programs. (2) Provide system safety support and conduct Safety Assessments on automated information systems in planned configurations with associated support items of equipment, as required. (3) Provide MANPRINT support to functional users, functional proponents, and PMs, as required.

Through Commanders, headquarters and subordinate commands— (1) Include MANPRINT as appropriate in policy and directives for systems acquisition. (2) For AMC managed systems, MANPRINT should be applied as follows: (a) Transition the ICT to appropriate IPTs, including a MANPRINT WIPT, if appropriate, to continue identification and resolution of issues. (b) Crosswalk MANPRINT parameters, objectives, and thresholds from the ORD to the RFP and TEMP, as applicable.

(c) Request Health Hazard Assessments from U.S. Army Center for Health Promotion and Preventive Medicine (CHPPM) in accordance with statutory and regulatory requirements. (d) Implement a proactive System Safety Program in accordance with statutory and regulatory requirements. (3) Review and recommend changes to requirements documents, SMMPs (or SMMP-like tracking documents), support strategies (SS), materiel fielding documents, solicitation documents, other program management and suppor- tability analysis (SA) documentation for MANPRINT and ILS considerations. (4) Encourage PMs, scientists, engineers, logisticians and contract management personnel to receive appropriate MANPRINT training.

(5) Support the PM’s System Safety Program through the AMC Safety Office. (6) Provide resources, to include funding, for appropriate and effective MANPRINT Program implementation and maintenance. (7) Develop and provide the Safety Assessments for all systems in support of MDRs. (8) Evaluate IR&D proposals from industry for potential MANPRINT implications. 2–19. Commanding General, U.S. Army Medical Command The Commanding General, U.S. Army Medical Command (CG, MEDCOM) will— a. Include MANPRINT as appropriate in directives and policy statements concerning system acquisition. b. Ensure research findings relating to or affecting human performance are reported to ODCSPER (DAPE–MR). c.

Through the Commander, U.S. Army Center for Health Promotion and Preventive Medicine (CHPPM): (1) As the MANPRINT Health Hazard Domain subject matter expert, provide information and support to ICTs and PM IPTs, as appropriate. (2) Conduct Health Hazard Assessments (HHAs).

(a) An Initial Health Hazard Assessment Report (IHHAR) will be done early in the system life cycle in order to influence early design changes to preserve and protect the health of the soldiers who will operate, maintain, and support the equipment; enhance total system effectiveness; reduce system retrofit needed to eliminate health hazards; reduce readiness deficiencies attributable to health hazards; and reduce personnel compensation. (b) A final Health Hazard Assessment Report will be completed when appropriate data is available. (c) Information from these reports are input to the SMMP (or SMMP-like tracking document) and the MANPRINT Assessment.

(d) Provide a copy of the HHAR to ARL–HRED as input to the draft MANPRINT Assessment. d. Through the Commander, U.S. Army Medical Department Center and School: (1) As the medical CBTDEV, plan and implement a MANPRINT Program for medical (Class VIII) materiel development and acquisition of systems. (2) Provide technical assistance to medical personnel supporting the appropriate ICT or MANPRINT WIPT and provide medical input to related system acquisition documents. Provide MANPRINT domain technical assistance to 7 AR 602–2 • 1 June 2001
