A Computer-Based Information System for the Issue/Receipt Control Branch, Supply Department, Naval Postgraduate School.

Abstract

The Supply Department of the Naval Postgraduate School is a relatively small department of the school; however, through its material acquisition function, it provides an extremely valuable service to the command in the form of material and logistic support. There are several functional areas that provide support to the material acquisition process. The purpose of this thesis is to examine these functional areas for possible utilization of a computer-based management information system which would improve the effectiveness of those processes performed within each functional area. The thesis will describe the support functions as they are presently performed and review any internal or external influences on these functions, followed by a proposed computer-based information system, its accompanying database, and a prototype system.
