Air Force Vehicle Integrated Management System (VIMS) Data Handling

Abstract

The Vehicle Integrated Management System (VIMS) is a base level management system that processes data related to vehicle maintenance. Vehicle maintenance data is collected and processed daily on the B3500 computer. This paper reports on a brief study and evaluation of VIMS that explored possible alternative techniques for improving the handling of vehicle maintenance management data. VIMS strengths and weaknesses are discussed, several near term improvements are suggested, and pursuit of a restructuring of VIMS to operate on-line is recommended.
