A Method for Augmenting the Advanced Configuration Management System for Nations Operating F-4 Aircraft under the United States International Logistics Program.

Abstract

The F-4 Technical Coordination Group (TCG) at the Ogden Air Logistics Center has the responsibility for configuration accounting of F-4s sold abroad under the International Logistics Program. The TCG uses a combination of the U.S. Air Force Advanced Configuration Management System and a manual recordkeeping system. The manual system has had to be used extensively due to peculiarities of foreign nations' configuration accounting needs. These manual methods have been very time consuming for the TCG. This research developed a computer model to take the place of the manual system methods. The computer model was found to be a faster method of accomplishing TCG configuration accounting tasks while performing at an equivalent level of accuracy. (Author)
