LABORATOARLYI TOMTECDA LIBRATION SYSTEM (LACS)UTILIZATION AND STATUS REPORT

摘要

This report details the efforts of the USAMCC and the LACS user organizations for the LACS program. A history of the LACS development and fielding is presented with a description of the system. The LACS has not been fully utilized nor projected to be utilized at any internal calibration laboratory. Schwanheim, Germany projects full utilization. Workload changes and personnel attitudes have contributed to underutilization. The LACS cannot continue to produce less than 200 calibrations per month and be economically feasible. Two recommendations are offered. They deal with relocating underutilized LACS systems to more favorable organizations and the reduction of USAMCC support.
