Evaluation of Management Systems Performance at Navy Regional Data Automation Centers.

Abstract

The Navy Regional Data Automation Centers (NARDACs) became a Navy Industrial Fund (NIF) activity on 1 October 1983. This change requires that NARDACs bill customers for all data processing (DP) services provided. The impact of the change to NIF accounting on the evaluation of management performance is addressed within the context of the defined control structure. The purpose of this thesis is to present background information on the NIF concept, NARDACs, and operational audits, and to provide general recommendations for the design and application of operational auditing for a NARDAC. It is also to discuss benefits to be derived by managers of a NARDAC examined by an operational audit. A guide for performing an operational audit of a NARDAC is outlined.
