Computer-Based Decision Support System for Tailoring Logistic Support Analysis (LSA) Contract Requirements

摘要

This thesis involved the development of a microcomputer program to help tailor Logistic Support Analysis (LSA), Mil-Std-1388-1A, requirements for contractual efforts. It is referred to as the LSA Decision Support System (DSS) Program. This program is intended to aid working level logisticians in developing good first-cut LSA requirements. There are four main features in the program: (1) Mil-Std-1388-1A task and subtask descriptions with added notes from LSA experts, (2) a replication of the applicability matrix in Mil-Std-1388-1A, (3) a unique tailoring portion with notes from LSA experts, and (4) the AFALC LSA Lessons Learned as of July 1988. The programming language used is dBASE III PLUS; it is required to run the LSA DSS program. The program was structured to be easily updated and expanded.
