Quad Service Manpower data

This is a front end to a flat file system containing historical Army, Navy and RAF manpower data from there systems prior to migration to JPA. The system also contains Civilian manpower data from HRMS which continues to be updated. However throughout the agency there is a huge volume of files, SAS, Excel, Access, MySQL containing extracts from the production data. These are held on the various Asante fileservers as evidence for particular Parliamentary Questions (PQ) that have been answered from the data. These extracts probably run into the 1000s. They are retained indefinitely as DASA policy is that they need to be able to re-create any information used to answer a PQ.
