SUBJECT: Recommendation to discontinue the use of the Activity
and Category portion of the Management Analysis
Numbering System (MANS) code.
The Human Resources System Staff is currently analyzing
the use of codes that are presently maintained in computer-
based systems. As a result of this analysis it has been
determined that no reporting has been accomplished with the
Activity and Category portion of the MANS code since March
1967.
This has been discussed with Mr. of your
staff, who indicated that the MANS code does not currently
reflect the true utilization of manpower due to CIA's
flexible position staffing pattern.
It is recommended that the Activity and Category por-
tions of the MANS code be discontinued in future systems.
Task Force Director, SIPS
