Although downsized 38 percent between fiscal years 1989 and 2002, this workforce has taken on greater roles as a result of DOD's restructuring and transformation. Responding to congressional concerns about the quality and quantity of, and the strategic planning for the civilian workforce, GAO determined the following for DOD, the military services, and selected defense agencies: (1) the extent of top-level leadership involvement in civilian strategic planning; (2) whether elements in civilian strategic plans are aligned to the overall mission, focused on results, and based on current and future civilian workforce data; and (3) whether civilian and military personnel strategic plans or sourcing initiatives were integrated. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-475/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-475.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-475/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-475.pdf GAO-03-475 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-03-475 Other Written Product GAO-03-475; DOD Personnel: DOD Actions Needed to Strengthen Civilian Human Capital Strategic Planning and Integration with Military Personnel and Sourcing Decisions; Agency missions Civilian employees Human resources utilization Labor force Personnel management Strategic planning DOD Quadrennial Defense Review GAO High Risk Series Performance and Accountability Series 2001 Public Law 105-270
