Visibility and Management of Support Costs,

Abstract

The study addresses the means to provide management information concerning the costs of operation and support experienced for aircraft weapon systems. The study concludes that two separate MIS (Management Information Systems) are required to meet detailed requirements stated by the DOD Management by Objectives program. It recommends establishment of one MIS to collect costs at the complete weapon system level for selected cost elements which span the full spectrum of operating and support functions. It also recommends further development of an existing prototype MIS based on 3M data to collect detailed costs of maintenance within the weapon system work breakdown structure.
