Abstract:

The lack of financial management education has prevented base level managers from using PRIME data as intended. This study examines the Air Force operating level financial management philosophy before and after PRIME and the environment of PRIME adoption. A model in the form of two case problems with solutions is created to portray the financial management concepts under PRIME to help educate base level Air Force logistic managers. The model illustrates the techniques of performance measurement management at the Responsibility Center and Cost Center level and the operation of a motor pool as a service center. Author
