The process maps—which include visuals and embedded metadata—were developed using Microsoft Visio and provided to the sponsor as both Visio and Portable Document Format (PDF) files. This annex provides a PDF file of the process maps. These figures, descriptions, and definitions represent a snapshot of the 96th TW’s hiring process as of April 1, 2024, and do not necessarily reflect the current hiring process: The process continues to evolve overtime. The main report is available [at www.rand.org/t/RRA3181-1](at www.rand.org/t/RRA3181-1) .  \nThe process maps are a collection of workflows and reference material, organized in the following way:  \n• Workflows contain action units and decision branches. Each page of the process maps represents a workflow that consists of individual action units and decision branches.  \n• Swim lanes indicate action owners. Within each workflow, every action unit is set in a swim lane that indicates the owner of the action (i.e., who performs it) .  \n• Rectangular action units outlined in blue link to more-detailed process maps.
