Survey Results and Analysis- A majority of those currently serving overseas and those who have recently served overseas would not volunteer for an extension. Their responses suggest that a mandatory program would adversely impact quality of life and could negatively impact morale and possible job performance.
- The analysis suggests that a substantial fraction of those serving overseas would be willing to extend their tour of service if a sufficiently attractive incentive package were offered.
Savings from an Auction-Based Program- An auction mechanism would allow servicemembers to bid for extensions to their current overseas tours.
- The estimated average annual savings could range from $19 million to $84 million.
How a Simple Tour Extension Auction Might Work- Each servicemember bids on the incentive pay she or he would accept in exchange for extending her or his tour.
- The government then ranks the bids submitted from lowest to highest and moves down the ranked list, accepting bids from servicemembers whose extensions would generate net savings and would otherwise work to accomplish the government's operational and personnel management goals.

摘要 |
- Implement an auction-based pilot incentive program. The report discusses in detail how an auction pilot might be designed. Such a program is likely to yield permanent change of station (PCS) savings, enable better longer-term estimates of program effectiveness, and inform decisions as to how to refine a set of programs in which both the servicemembers and the government benefit.
- More fully evaluate existing incentive programs, both financial and in kind. Regardless of whether or not the government wishes to pursue the pilot program, the authors recommend that existing programs be evaluated in terms of their net costs (or savings) to enable better informed cost/benefit decisions.
- Continue to provide the flexibility to balance between personnel management goals and the goal of achieving PCS savings. The report emphasizes the potential value of programs that will aid in achieving such a balance. Such programs could bring about longer average tours, more stability, and some savings without disruptive and damaging side effects.
