Evaluation of Standard Integrated Support Management System (SISMS).

Abstract

THE CG, DARCOM requested that the Logistics Studies Office, Army Logistics Management Center (LSO, ALMC) conduct an independent evaluation of SISMS to determine its value, need and compatibility with related DARCOM procedures. The study was accomplished through the use of a comprehensive questionnaire consisting of thirty-five questions relating to SISMS. The questionnaire was directed to those activities within DARCOM with specific responsibilities for SISMS in current regulations. In addition to the questionnaire, personal visits were made to US Army Tank Automotive Command (TACOM), US Army Aviation Research and Development Command (AVRADCOM) and US Army Troop Support and Aviation Materiel Readiness Command (TSARCOM). Project/Product managers within these commands were also contacted in connection with these visits. Evaluation of the questionnaire and personal visits coupled with a review of current regulations and studies completed on SISMS resulted in reaching the conclusion that the SISMS regulation currently in use should be eliminated upon establishment of a Joint Logistics Coordinating Panel with the responsibility to develop and implement a procedure for the standardized appliation of MIL STDS 1388-1/2 and 1552/1561 service wide.
