Economic Analysis of the CONUS Integrated Facilities System

Abstract

This report contains estimates of the benefits and costs associated with the development, implementation and operation of an Army CONUS-wide Integrated Facilities System (IFS). All additional costs expected to be incurred by IFS are estimated. These costs include personnel and Automatic Data Processing (ADP) requirements. All of the IFS benefits are addressed in a qualitative manner; the benefits associated with the Real Property Maintenance Activity (RPMA) are also treated quantitatively. The expected value of benefits more than offsets the expected additional costs, when both costs and benefits are discounted at 10 percent. The report concludes that the acquisition of IFS is an economically attractive opportunity for the Army.
