Definition
派员 is a separable verb (离合词) meaning 'to send a staff member or officer'. The verb 派 ('to dispatch') and the noun 员 ('personnel') can split when a measure word, number, or other element goes between them, e.g. 派一名员 ('send one staffer'). It's formal/official language, used in government, corporate, or organizational contexts — not casual conversation.
