Life Cycle Management of Army Tactical Management Information Systems (TACMIS).

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the life cycle management of Army Tactical Management Information Systems with particular emphasis on integration of the requirements of the life Cycle System Management Model (LCSMM) for Army Systems, DA Pam 11-25, and the Army Management Information System (AMIS) AR 18-1. Considerable attention, both in the literature and in practice, has been given to the systems acquisition process for inception through development into production. The principal thrust of this attention, however, has been directed towards RDT and E and acquisition of weapons systems to counter a perceived threat. This study focuses on areas in the present AMIS Model that appear to be weak and attempts to correlate some of the more significant activities and documentation requirements with the LCSMM. The end result of this effort is the determination of the feasibility of developing a single Army TACMIS model with the detail of the LCSMM. (Author)
