<dd>The Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) plans, designs, constructs, maintains and repairs all buildings and facilities for the U.S. Navy around the world. Building and facility planning, maintenance and repair are the responsibility of the NAVFAC public works organizations. Building and facility design and construction are the responsibility of the NAVFAC construction management field offices or ROICCs (Resident Officer In Charge of Construction). The following discussion begins with a brief overview of the U.S. Navy Civil Engineer Corps (CEC), the Naval Facilities Engineering Command and Navy contracting. The ROICC field office is introduced with a description of its staffing, organization and relationship to the Navy public works organization. Consolidation of facilities contracting functions between the ROICC field office and public works leads into a discussion on field office readiness, or the ability of the field office to accomplish its mission. Several field office readiness category measures are presented, but this paper focuses on NAVFAC field office staffing readiness and the staffing algorithms. The staffing algorithm is a set of equations used to determine the number of required field office staff as a function of projected annual facilities contracting work in place. The development of the NAVFAC staffing algorithm is presented with analysis. Staffing data and analysis of all NAVFAC field offices is also presented. The paper concludes finding success in NAVFAC's Field Office Readiness initiatives and closes with recommendations for improvement in field office readiness reporting and a brief look into the future of field office assessment</dd>
