VAMOSC (Visibility and Management of Operating and Support Costs) ADPE Support Considerations.
Abstract
The U.S. Air Force Visibility and Management of Operating and Support Costs (VAMOSC) Program Office is responsible for the development of the Air Force VAMOSC data systems. VAMOSC currently consists of three data systems that collect and report the operating and support (O&S) costs for USAF aircraft at the mission/design/series level, components of aircraft systems at the work unit code level, and ground communications-electronics systems at the type/model/series level. The three data systems are: Weapon System Support Cost (WSSC), Component Support Cost System (CSCS), and Ground Communications-Electronics (C-E). The Air Force has several uses for VAMOSC data, including (1) to support planning and budgetary input to the Defense System Acquisition Review Council (DSARC) process for acquisition of new weapons systems, and (2) to aid the Program Objective Memorandum (POM) process to identify existing systems for possible modification. The objective of Task 1 is to identify the current and future data requirements imposed on the VAMOSC system. The data requirements will drive the evaluation of alternative technologies that will process and store VAMOSC-produced data. We employed two techniques to obtain the desired information: (1) a survey of the current and potential VAMOSC user community, and (2) measurement of the current VAMOSC data systems.
