The Air Force has embarked on a one-year test at Tinker AFB, Okla., to manage civilian personnel staffing from the Air Force Personnel Center in San Antonio. Tinker, as home to one of USAF’s three Air Logistics Centers, has a large civilian workforce, making it an ideal guinea pig. The Air Force Audit Agency will measure AFPC’s timeliness and ability to provide good customer service. Driving the effort is BRAC 2005, which directed the Air Force to consolidate some personnel services at AFPC.
The Air Force is on track to reach its annual goal of graduating 1,500 new pilots that had proved elusive to this point, one year after the service launched a sweeping overhaul of its undergraduate pilot training program, Air Education and Training Command said Sept. 14.
