Abstract:

As a task of the Major Item Management Study MIMS, the Research Analysis Corporation has conducted a study to review the information systems that comprise the Army Management Information System AMIS Master Plan with regard to their potential interactions with the current major item management process as documented in RAC Clinet Report, A Synthesis of the US Army Major Item Management System. The study first examines the AMIS systems with regard to their potential interaction with MIMS, and reviews the Logistics Management Information System LOGMIS as delineated under the Army Logistics System Master Plan LOGMAP with regard to including LOGMIS information systems not covered under AMIS in the analysis. Next, the information systems that are identified as having a potential interaction with the MIMS process are described in general terms, and the interaction of these systems with the MIMS process is briefly presented.
