Documentation and Evaluation of Depot Level Maintenance Cost Accumulation and Reporting at the Air Logistics Center, Sacramento, California.

Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to document the information structure for the cost accounting, accumulating, evaluating, and reporting of depot level maintenance and repair by the Air Force through its various Air Logistics Centers throughout the United States. One objective of this research is to provide a greater understanding of exactly how this information complies with and fulfills the requirements of the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense (OASD, MI&L) in providing relevant, useful, and timely information to OASD in meeting Department of Defense and higher level management decision needs. These requirements are delineated in OASD's uniform cost accounting handbook guidelines established in DOD 7220.29-H, the Department of Defense Depot Maintenance and Maintenance Support Cost Accounting and Production Reporting Handbook. Specifically, this project focuses on (1) the cost accounting, cost reporting procedures, and data entered by the Sacramento Air Logistics Center, Sacramento, California in its compliance with OASD Report RCS DD-M(A) 1397 and (2) how this same data is used by the Office of the Secretary of Defense.
