Weapons Load Crew Management Program Update

Abstract

Weapons Load Crew Management Program, AFLMA Project # LM9611300: The 1994 release of the Weapons Load Crew Management Program (WLCMP) was rapidly becoming outdated. The implementation of new computer operating systems and increased user demands for program flexibility were rapidly negating WLCMP's advantages. Movement of crew members between crews was an awkward process in the Ada programming language version. Widely used throughout the Air Force (including Air National Guard and Reserve units), WLCMP is a efficient way of managing load crew training, eliminating much of the time and manpower that is required by manual tracking procedures. The MS Access based version of WLCMP is intuitive to use and incorporates many new reporting features available to all user levels. These new reporting capabilities will allow improved training and trend analysis while reducing the number of man-hours required to collect the data. The program provides 'real time' load crew status to multiple work centers while protecting the database from unauthorized or untrained personnel. The WLCMP is now 'year 2000' compliant.
