Modeling of MOCAS (Mechanization of Contract Administration Services System) Phase 2 Batch Processing

Abstract

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Office of Telecommunications and Information Systems, Automated Information Systems Development and Control Division is responsible for determining the computer resources necessary to support the Mechanization of Contract Administration Services System (MOCAS), which is used by DLA contract administration activities for daily management of over 392,000 contracts valued at $290 billion. The recent Phase II implementation of MOCAS operates in two principal modes a daily on-line cycle, and a night batch cycle. With impending installation of phase II at the larger Defense Contract Administration Services Regions, there was uncertainty as to whether the existing and planned computer resources would be sufficient to handle the workload.
