Project Information Management System (PIMS) for Military Construction: Functional Description.

Abstract

This report is a functional description of a computer-based Project Information Management System (PIMS) for military construction (MILCON). The system is being developed for use by OASD(MRA&L) Installations and Housing (I&H) and other offices within the Department of Defense (DoD). Included in the description are the capabilities and costs of operating PIMS in two different facilities: (1) the Family Housing System Office (FHSO) in the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC), and (2) the Air Force Data Services Center (AFDSC) located in the Pentagon. This functional description provides: An overview of the need for, and benefits of, a computerized MILCON project information system within MRA&L(I&H); A statement of the requirements to be satisfied by PIMS, which will be the basis of understanding between MRA&L(I&H) and the software developer; Definitions of the data elements included in the PIMS data base for use by the Military Departments and Defense Agencies, who will provide input data, and for use by the software developer; and Specifications for the overall design of PIMS, its performance requirements, input and output formats, and report generating requirements to be used as a programming guide by the software developer.
