Called SAMIS, for Security Assistance Management Information System, the system is a combination of computer hardware and software that provides a capability for overseeing the materiel, services and financial matters that make up AFLC's $20 billion FMS programs. . The system is the single focal point for the receipt of the one million FMS requisitions and six million status transactions generated each year in support of these programs. These are materiel orders which must receive accurate and timely execution so that each country receives the equipment and spare parts needed to keep its weapons systems operational and to ensure proper financial accounting. The heart of SAMIS is an IBM 3083JX, a large-scal- e mainframe computer with 16 million bytes of main memory in its central processing unit capable of processing up to 8.5 million instructions per minute. It also has a disc storage subsystem with a capacity of 30 billion bytes. The data base contains 13 million records, making it one of the largest in the country. The system also includes more than 50 printers, one, with a cumulative print speed of 1,000 lines per s Lt. Col. minute, and almost 200 interactive display stations. They are located throughout the International Logistics Center; at AFLC's air logistics centers in California, Georgia, Oklahoma, Utah and Texas; at the Aerospace Guidance and Metrology Center at Newark AFS, Ohio; and at AFLC headquarters and the 2750th Air Base Wing, both at Wright-Patterso- n AFB. With SAMIS, ILC case managers have a fepon-sive, insystem that permits e formation through the interactive display stations. Unlike the system it replaces, SAMIS allows materiel shipped from the source of supply to be user-oriente- d Accuircocy on-lin- try. It also allows ILC case managers to establish and track service requirements as well as materiel a process which previously required laborious record keeping. In addition to these capabilities, plans are under way to enhance the system within the coming months. The main enhancements will include the addition of trend analysis and statistical summary TT wvn As9 vmiiiimiiu a J.. jin biiab nnll fff ww piuviucs iliv auu ui" piuuutka secucials with a more complete picture of the total 1 rity assistance program. breeds good Betty Shaw Directorate of Distribution By The Directorate of Distribution achieved an initial accuracy rate of 85.8 percent on a "Five Hundred Sample Inventory."

The Inventory Control Branch could not report excellent results without the combined efforts of other base agencies and user customers. Additionally, without the direct support of the division and its workers, goals of this magnitude would be im possible. |
