Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) Policies and Practices Used to Manage Personnel Involved in Data Processing Activities

Abstract

We concentrated on how NAVSEA determined the number and composition of staff needed to design, maintain and operate the management information system for naval shipyards (shipyard MIS) and noted several problems arising from these practices which we think warrant your attention. Effective management control over Navy ADP personnel is imperative to efficient, economical ADP support, especially in light of the large expenditures for ADP personnel. Effective management calls for Navy-wide guidance and direction on how to best employ ADP staff. Presently, the Navy has no central guidance or direction on how to staff or structure ADP organizations. Rather, responsibility for ADP personnel is diffused throughout the Navy.
