MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS FOR 1990'S COMBAT SERVICE SUPPORT

Abstract

The US Army Advanced Materiel Concepts Agency (AMCA) convened an ad hoc working group (AHWG) to identify information-system requirements for a combat-service-support management control center for the 1990's. This AHWG contributed to an ongoing study that will culminate in the conceptual design of a transportable control center for theater-level management of combat service support. The group assumed that there would be no equipment constraints in the 1990's to collection, storage, retrieval, and analysis of vast quantities of data. The major information requirement is to provide resource visibility; the information system must be self-checking, and, when feasible, self-correcting.
