Cargo Movement Operations System (CMOS). Level of Effort Assessment for CMOS/ADAM III Merger

Abstract

The purpose of this assessment is to determine the work necessary to merge the ADAM III functionality into CMOS. The general strategy for this study was to further define the SSS Outline Document using materials furnished by the HQ MAC/TR/SC staffs and to examine these requirements to determine their impact in each of six system design element categories. Five steps were needed to complete this study. In order of occurrence, they were 1) to explain the processes at work in ADAM III, 2) to identify the system design element categories, 3) to visualize the incorporation of ADAM III requirements into CMOS, 4) to record each instance, and 5) to total the counts for each category. Sizing the scope of the CMOS ADAM III merger should be tempered by the presence of mitigating factors. These include: 1) pending conclusion of ADAM III requirements study, 2) documentation immaturity in CMOS and incompleteness in ADAM III, 3) wholesale adoption of ADAM III procedures, 4) no measurement of process complexity, 5) inability to allocate all requirements to categories, and 6) noninterchangeability between CMOS ad hoc queries and ADAM III preformatted queries. Keywords: Menu options, Full screens, Hand held terminal screens, Local reports, External interfaces, and Data fields.
