- Fleet manpower requirements for ships and squadrons are determined by the Navy Manpower Analysis Center (NAVMAC).
- Shore manpower requirements at Navy commands are determined by NAVMAC and approved by OPNAV N13.
- Policy for subspecialty validation (zero-based review) is managed by OPNAV N127.
- Consolidated approved priority manning designations are managed by the Manpower Programming Center (NPC).
- Requests to modify quota plans are submitted to the NPC.
- The NPC manages Navy Flag Officers.
-
Reprogramming & Validation:
