Warrant officers are competent and confident warriors, innovative integrators of emerging technologies, dynamic teachers, and developers of specialized teams of soldiers. They support a wide range of Army missions throughout their career. Warrant officers in the Army are accessed with specific levels of technical ability. They refine their technical expertise and develop their leadership and management skills through tiered progressive assignments and education."(DA Pamphlet 600-3, p. 3-9) USAWOCC Visit us at usawocc.army.mil UNCLASSIFIED 13 AMERICA’S ARMY STRENGTH IN KNOWLEDGE Define Human Systems Integration Human Systems Integration (HSI) is the relationship between humans and their environment and how systems are designed and used relative to that relationship. Human Systems Integration includes humans, in their different roles in the system (as operator, maintainer, trainer, designer, etc.). Systems including hardware, software and processes (including the acquisition process and the design process), and the integration of all of these elements to optimize performance. USAWOCC Visit us at usawocc.army.mil UNCLASSIFIED 14 AMERICA’S ARMY STRENGTH IN KNOWLEDGE Goal of Human Systems Integration The principle goal is to ensure a safe and effective relationship between the human and the system that meets the mission. This systems integration includes; the integrated and comprehensive analysis, design and assessment of requirements, concepts and resources for system manpower, personnel, training, safety and occupational health, habitability, personnel survivability, and human factors engineering. USAWOCC Visit us at usawocc.army.mil UNCLASSIFIED 15 AMERICA’S ARMY STRENGTH IN KNOWLEDGE USAWOCC Visit us at usawocc.army.mil Human Systems Integration UNCLASSIFIED 16 AMERICA’S ARMY STRENGTH IN KNOWLEDGE Human Systems Integration Human Systems Integration, includes several different major domains, human factors engineering, manpower, personal, training, habitability and personnel Survivability. However the quality of Human Systems integration effects all aspects of the DoD’s ability to perform its mission. USAWOCC Visit us at usawocc.army.mil UNCLASSIFIED 17 AMERICA’S ARMY STRENGTH IN KNOWLEDGE Human Systems Integration Human Systems Integration is an important aspect of the design process. Human Systems Integration should be a part of the design of system from the beginning of the acquisition process. The human is a part of all DoD systems to one extent or another, as a result the integration of the system with its human elements will affect every aspect of the system including its: management, architectures, logistics, supportability, cost (acquisition and operations and maintenance costs), readiness, effectiveness, reliability and disposal. USAWOCC Visit us at usawocc.army.mil UNCLASSIFIED 18 AMERICA’S ARMY STRENGTH IN KNOWLEDGE Human Systems Integration The capabilities of the human in DoD systems should be part of the earliest Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) and development of capabilities documents (ICD and CCD). The development of any systems concept of operations is highly dependent on the role of the operator in the capabilities and operation of the system. USAWOCC Visit us at usawocc.army.mil UNCLASSIFIED 19 AMERICA’S ARMY STRENGTH IN KNOWLEDGE Human Systems Integration As a result of contributions from the different domain areas of system manpower, personnel, training, safety and occupational health, habitability, personnel survivability, and human factors engineering, human systems integration requires complex trade space analysis. These analyses can be added by modeling and simulation.

FCM (Funds Control Module) they failed to retain the programming logics for turn-ins.
According to chapter 13 in the Defense Finance and Account Service-Indianapolis regulation 371, the FCM should involve a tracking system for matching a customer returns against the
serviceable problems of similar items. Due to the replacement of FCM with manual matching
requirement, the junior soldier assigned this duty were more responsible to ensure that their units
retained millions of dollar in both operations and maintenance accounts. Turn-in tracking system
issues gave birth to accounting issues in the Army accounting department and not actually the
property loss for the expected turn-in credit. The global combat support System-Army (GCSSArmy) is made up of Army expedient planning system with Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS)
enterprise designing program in an military-led endeavor to merge planning details bring variety
of sovereign supply string systems practically united. Additional government regulations

employment of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to help the government recycle
