Afloat Information and Material Movement Study (AIMMS). Phase 2. Data Acquisition.

Abstract

The purpose of the Afloat Information and Material Movement Study (AIMMS) is to determine the relative locations (measured in time), equipment and manning requirements (configuration), of a new construction aircraft carrier supply support system that will maximize the effectiveness of the system during at-sea operations. The prime objective of the study is to develop a method that can be used as a tool for analyzing the effects on the system of adjusting the characteristics of the configuration. This Phase 2 report describes: (1) the data acquired to quantify the required supply support processes, (2) the measure of effectiveness to be used as a basis for evaluations, and (3) the potential systems that may be considered as substitutes for current inter- and intra-process means of information and material processing and transfer.
