Analysis of DISMS (Defense Integrated Subsistence Management System) Increment 4

Abstract

This report brings together in one document the findings of a series of three studies concerned with Increment IV of the Defense Integrated Subsistence Management System (DISMS). This evaluation of Increment IV spanned more than 15 months and progressed from a general overview to more in-depth examinations of the two major Increment IV processes. Each analysis, in turn, has provided different perspective on DISMS and revealed new, more detailed, information. Findings included: expected transaction rates for on-line inquiries and bid response evaluations; workload implications of the bid response data entry; and rationale supporting an on-line system based on real time management information needs. Keywords: Automated systems; Subsistence; Workload capacity; Bid response; Contract administration; Computer systems.
