About this file

This document contains a questions and answers file related to a Broad Agency Announcement from the U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences. The BAA seeks proposals to continue previous work examining job classification and assignment through identifying outcomes of interest from existing criteria and assessing existing predictor and outcome measures, with the goal of identifying any gaps in existing data. An independent platform is required as part of the project for displaying results. No new outcome measures or unmeasured predictors and outcomes will be developed. The questions and answers provide clarification on technical aspects of three objectives under the BAA but do not specify any required products or services.

Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) W911NF-18-S-0005 Enhancing Job Classification and Assignment4-May-22
#QuestionAnswer
1How many MOS clusters were identified by ARI based on the previously conducted job analysis?140+ MOS were examined and there were different number of clusters for different predictors
2For Objective 1-A, is this requesting an identification of outcomes of interest from existing criteria or a proposal of currently unmeasured outcomes that should be measured to better measure performance, attitudes, and retention?Existing criteria. New outcome measures will not be developed as part of this project.
3For Objective 1-C, are there existing predictor and outcome measures to choose from or is there receptivity for currently unmeasured predictors and outcomes that could fill an existing gap? What existing predictor and outcome measures are available to include for future research?We’re not interested in unmeasured predictors and outcomes. Predictors include physical (OPAT), interest (AVID), personality (TAPAS), and cognitive (ASVAB) inventories and outcomes include a broad range of contextual performance and motivation based behaviors (i.e., job-fit, satisfaction, in-unit performance).
4For Objective 1-C, are the gaps to be filled already identified or is that also a requirement of this BAA?The data will be made available to identify any gaps in the existing data. No gap analysis is needed.
5For Objective 3, is there already an independent platform that needs to be configured for displaying results or is the request to search for and identify a platform that is capable to displaying the results?We require a new independent platform as part of this project.
6Is this new work or a continuation of previous work?This is a continuation of previous work.
7Are there any technical reports or publications related to this effort beyond what’s already cited in this BAA (Nye et al., 2012)?It’s still an ongoing project and there is no published report yet.
8What was the motivation for re-releasing this announcement with modifications?The Government is not aware of the re-leasing of this announcement.
