Air Force Integrated Readiness Measurement System (AFIRMS). Analysis of Military Airlift Command (MAC) Capability Assessment Metrics.

Abstract

This study is the initial phase of a requirements analysis effort to tailor AFIRMS to the needs of the Military Airlift Command (MAC). The MAC requirements analysis is a small part in the development of the Air Force Integrated Readiness Measurement System (AFIRMS), a summary of which appears below. The purpose of this report is to discuss the choice of a capability assessment metric, or unit-of-measure, for MAC. Prior to July 1985, a Learning Prototype Phase (LPP) tested the basic concepts of AFIRMS on an experimental testbed system which linked a base, a major command (MAJCOM), and Headquarters, United States Air Force (HQ USAF). That phase focused on the tactical fighter environment at Headquarters, United States Air Force in Europe (HQ USAFE) abd Spangdahlem Air Base. This study, and a concurrent study of Strategic Air Command (SAC) broaden the base upon which AFIRMS rests. This base will support the definition and design phase of AFIRMS development.
