Convert Military Metrics to Business Metrics (Quick Calculator)

Translate outcomes into cost, time, and quality—recruiters think in those terms.

Map it like this

• ✅ Readiness % → Uptime/Availability

• ✅ Sorties/Missions → Throughput/Orders fulfilled

• ✅ Safety incidents ↓ → Quality/Defect rate ↓

• ✅ Headcount trained → Capacity added

  
  

Example:Raised readiness from 82%→95% → Increased equipment uptime 13 pts; avoided ~120 hrs downtime/month.

💡 Pro Tip: Put one converted metric in each resume bullet—numbers stick.
