SITUATIONUpon graduation from SLC, you are assigned as a Brigade S-1 NCOIC. Immediately after signing into the unit, the CSM calls you into his office and hands you the following 11B Strength Report submitted by subordinate battalion S-1s. With deployment scheduled in 6-8 months he is concerned “with the numbers.” The CSM meets with the Brigade Commander in 15 minutes and needs answers to the following questions:

11B STRENGTH REPORT

1. Can the S-1 verify these numbers? How?2. Can you determine our projected 11B strength in 90 days? 120 days? How?3. What tools (e.g., HR enabling systems, reports, etc.) does the S-1 use for strength reporting?4. What agencies or organizations does the S-1 coordinate with during the strength reporting process?

ObjectiveAction: Analyze Strength ReportingCondition: Senior HR Leaders in a classroom environment working individually and as a member of a small group, using doctrinal and administrative publications, practical exercises, case studies, personal experience, handouts, and discussion with an awareness of the Operational Environment (OE) variables and actors.Standard: Analysis includes:1. Strength reporting process and doctrinal responsibilities.2. HR enabling systems that support strength reportingSlide3

What is Strength Reporting?

FM 1-0, Chapter 3FM 1-0: Strength Reporting is the numerical end product of the accountability process by comparing by-name data (faces) against authorizations (spaces) to determine a percentage of fill

.Strength Reporting includes reporting all personnel who deploy with the force including: Soldiers Military service members from other Services Department of Defense (DoD) Civilians Contractors Personnel Accountability is the key factor used for conducting Strength ReportingNumerical Strength Reports reflect the combat power of a unit and are used to: Monitor unit strength Prioritize replacements Make and support tactical decisionsSlide4
