Andrew, I think you need to provide more information in your question,
but I will take a stab at it. There are a couple of ways to do this I
think:

1. If you use Active Directory, you can extract data from your
personnel data into AD and then synch AD to Project Server. That
technology (the synch part) is build into Project Server.

2. If you don't use AD or don't want to use that method, you can use
Project Server's PDS (available as a free download) and to load the
data into Project Server. In a project I was just on, the client
initially loaded all resource data and all outline code and custom
field values using the PDS. It requires good development talent and
knowledge of the DB structure, but it can done very efficiently once
you work out the code.

Hope this helps,
