The Prescribed Information System of Production Control Units in Base Civil Engineering Organizations.

Abstract

When designing a new Management Information System/Decision Support System (MIS/DSS) for an organization, it is important to understand the existing MIS/DSS so the problems with it can be identified and corrected. This thesis identifies an approach for MIS/DSS design and accomplishes one step of the design process for production control units in base civil engineering organizations. The information system of production control is diagrammed according to the requirements stated in Air Force Regulation 85-1, Resources and Work Force Management. This lays the foundation for completing the MIS/DSS design for production control and for all of the base civil engineering organization. The diagrams developed in this thesis are useful as a training aid for production control specialists, as an illustrated method for simplifying regulation procedural requirements, for identifying the portions of the existing MIS/DSS that are automated processes, and for development of interactive computer programs for going through production control processes.
