This report explores the integration of continuous performance assessments in the Swedish Armed Forces to conduct effective cost-benefit analyses within military training programs. It examines the unit development cycle, which includes training, pre-deployment, operation, and recuperation phases to measure effectiveness over a two-year span. By analyzing performance metrics and changes in training exercises, equipment investments, and resource allocation, the study aims to provide insights into optimizing military training strategies for enhanced operational efficiency.
