A Management Information System to Estimate Controlled Materials Requirements for Air Force Contracts.

摘要

The purpose of the thesis effort was to plan and design a management information system for the Joint Aeronautical Materials Activity (JAMAC). The developed system generates materials requirement estimates for controlled materials used during performance of United States Air Force contracts. Controlled materials requirements for such contracts are prepared for seven program identification codes (A-1, A-2, A-6, A-7, C-2, C-3, and C-9) as established by the Defense Materials System. The computer program used to generate the requirements makes use of matrix algebra routines. System output includes the materials requirement estimates for each program identification code and accuracy/audit lists. (Author)
