abstract="MANPRINT is a U.S. Department of Defense initiative which changes the focus of industry from a products view only toward a total system view that considers human performance and product reliability together as a system. Socioeconomic environments reflected in manpower demographical restrictions, global competition, and constraints in fiscal resources are creating similar pressures on both the military and commercial sectors. This paper outlines several of the social, economic, and technical trends in government and industry which have created a favorable environment for MANPRINT. Through its initiatives in government policy and technical advancement of design and decision-making tools, MANPRINT is helping to define an expanding role for ergonomics in designing products and processes for manufacturability. MANPRINT also has implications for ergonomics research and offers new challenges to ergonomics education.<p />",
