چکیده
19. ABSTRACT (Continue on reverse if necessary and identify by block number) This study develops a model for measuring productivity in a large scale systems acquisition and development agency within the Department of Defense using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Fourteen objective factors were identified and weighted to develop the relative importance of the primary determinants of production. Initial validity data are presented. The result is a model which provides senior management with objective, analytically derived indexes upon which to make manpower decisions.
