Test and Evaluation of the Navy Occupational Health Information Management System (NOHIMS).
Abstract
The Navy Occupational Health Information Management System (NOHIMS) was tested and evaluated under Phase II of a Department of Defense Small Business Innovation Research award over the period September 1985 through February 1986. A prototype version of NOHIMS was implemented at two industrial sites--the Naval Air Rework Facility (NARF) and Occupational Health Unit (OHU), North Island, San Diego, California, and the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, Bremerton, Washington. The evaluation team conducted extension interviews with the users of the prototype system at the NARF and the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, and with Navy management involved with the system, the developers of the system, and additional other people having contact or potential contact with the system. In addition, resource materials on NOHIMS, such as OPNAVINST 5100.23B, the NOHIMS MENS, the NOHIMS System Decision Paper, the Battelle Conference Proceedings (June 1979), the NOHIMS documentation, and various published articles were reviewed. The medical component software we evaluated consisted of COSTAR--the Computer Stored Ambulatory Record which had been customized to the needs of NOHIMS. We also evaluated Version 1.0 of the industrial component software. Keywords: System engineering; Operational effectiveness; Tables(Data).
