Downloaded from https://www.everyspec.com TOP 1-1-015 15 October 2007 1. SCOPE AND USE OF TOP 1-1-015. 1.1 Scope. This Test Operations Procedure (TOP) provides guidance for conducting MANPRINT domain test and analysis of all types of materiel and systems tested by the Developmental Test Command (DTC). Several other MANPRINT-related TOPs are cited in this TOP. The material presented in those TOPs augment the information presented here and points the reader to other documents for further guidance. TOP 1-1-015 provides test procedures, appropriate references, and general guidance for conducting developmental tests across the seven MANPRINT domains.

Domains include Manpower, Personnel, Training, Human Factors Engineering, System Safety, Health Hazards, and Soldier Survivability. This TOP also provides test procedure frameworks for domain-specific testing. The scope of MANPRINT tests during the developmental test phases is specified in DTC PAM 73-1 1* . The scope of MANPRINT testing during customer tests will be limited to that specified by the customer. The material contained in this TOP does not include detailed methods for statistical analysis of data.

Guidance for statistical treatment of data is contained in standard sources such as National Institutes of Standards and Technology’s E-Handbook of Statistical Methods 2 (located at http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/ ) and Electronic Textbook: StatSoft 3 (located at http://www.statsoft.com/textbook/stathome.html ). 1.2 MANpower and PeRsonnel INTegration (MANPRINT) and Human Systems Integration (HSI) Overview. HSI is a Department of Defense (DoD) effort designed to optimize the human part of the total system equation by integrating all of its elements into the system acquisition process.

HSI is a central theme for system development throughout DoD directives, instructions, and acquisition guidebooks, and provides a common terminology which fosters the implementation of joint Test and Evaluation (T&E). It also addresses the need for human-centered engineering throughout system design, development, and operation. HSI implementation is essential for maximizing total system performance and reducing total lifecycle costs. Analogous to HSI is the MANPRINT program. MANPRINT is the Army's process to fulfill DoD HSI directives and includes seven domains which are generally comparable to HSI elements. The Army’s MANPRINT Program is the implementation of DOD’s HSI elements.

The term reflects current Army Regulation 602-2 4 (Manpower and Personnel Integration in the System Acquisition Process) terminology. This regulation also specifies agencies responsible for MANPRINT and MANPRINT domain assessments conducted at major acquisition program milestone decisions. As with HSI the MANPRINT program ensures that Soldier and unit needs are considered throughout the system acquisition process and life cycle. For clarity in this document, the term HSI is understood to encompass both HSI elements and MANPRINT domains. * Superscript numbers correspond to those in Appendix C, References 2
