A Suggested Policy for Incorporating Operations Research/Systems Analysis into the Institute of Combined Arms and Support's Management Model.

Abstract

The Institute of Combined Arms and Support (ICAS), within the U.S. Army Combat Developments Command (USACDC), is responsible for developing the combat doctrine for forces that employ combined arms. In discharging its combat development responsibilities, ICAS is guided by a management model. To proceed through the development process various critical management/decision check points in this model must be passed. This study is directed to the incorporation of the techniques of Operations Research / Systems Analysis into the aforementioned model to provide the best decisions at the identified check points.
