Data Collection/Verification: Improved Forms DD358 and DD1111,
Abstract
Although most members of the military services are well-served by regulation garment sizes, a small percentage of men and women require custom-made clothing. Measurements of individuals requiring these garments are currently recorded on written forms, and sent to the Special Measurement Office of the Defense Supply Center-Philadelphia (DSC-P) where they are processed. Problems inherent in the use of written forms can result in failure to deliver uniforms in a timely fashion and the need for costly returns and replacements. This report describes a portion of the research invested in the development of an electronic order form (EOF) that would greatly expedite the design, manufacture, and delivery of special measurement clothing. The activity described here concerns itself chiefly with the development of editing algorithms designed to produce complete and accurate information on the electronic form. Other work briefly outlined here includes checking the accuracy of measurement instructions and development of a scaled-down version of the order form (EOF Lite) for use on individual personal computers.
