Automation Management Study, Director of Army Automation (DAA).

摘要

The Automation Management Study was a 7-month study effort which produced the Charter and implementing documents for the central manager of Army Automation, the Director of Army Automation (DAA). The DAA organizationally and functionally replaced the Director, Management Information Systems, Office Chief of Staff Army. Mission of the DAA is to manage automation by establishing automation policy, developing comprehensive, integrated automation plans, exercizing broad resource management responsibilities, and evaluating the execution of plans and programs to employ automation technology within the Army. Army automation encompasses computer-based systems which support management or mission functions, are configured for operations in combat or special environments, or are embedded within combat weapons systems. Operational functions associated with the life cycle management of automated systems will be decentralized to Army Staff agencies and major commands. Three new organizational structures to support the DAA are the Automation Management Offices, the Army Automation Steering Committee, and the Army Command and Control Management Structure. (Author)
