Installation Status Report Part I - Infrastructure Field Test After Action Report.

Abstract

Part I Infrastructure of the Installation Status Report (ISR) was field tested at 11 CONUS installations in July-August 1993. The test was very successful in identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the ISR as a decision support system. The test results have been briefed to all levels of the Army leadership, to include the CSA. General Sullivan was enthusiastic about the potential of the ISR as a Commander's tool to assist infrastructure related decisions made at all levels of the Army. He approved a plan to retest Part-I in Feb-Apr 94 at the original test sites, along with some additional installations, to validate the system improvements made since the First test. Part II-Environment will also be tested during this time frame at these same installations. The test installations validated the ISR in meeting its design objectives for their use. MACOM response to the ISR was mixed. Generally the MACOMs supported testing the ISR further to validate the cost factors and C-Rating algorithms prior to using data in the budgeting process. They support further testing also to validate improved facility standards and to identify efficient uses of the data at MACOM and DA level. This report presents summaries of much of the ISR test data. This test data should not he used in decision making and presentations of it in this report are clearly marked as "For Test Purposes Only". Cost factors, C-Rating algorithms, facility requirements and assets data, and facility standards from which this data was generated are all being refined to improve the overall ISR system. Test results support that this data will be very useful to decision makers however the accuracy of the test data is questionable until system enhancements are completed.
