Revitalization of Reports Management Program
and I discussed at length the benefits
at
eer to the ncy throu9b an efficient Reports Msnage ent
d
s
program. lie was particularly interested in the Potential cost
roidsnces that could be realized in better control of automated
reports.
2. He has agreed with my proposal that a portion of your time be
concentrated on a Project to revitalize this Staff' B Reports Management
rtimated time frame and bench marks for periodic progress reo s
3. The objective of this Project is to have a Reporti Management
Prograri available in this Staff which we can use with a miniimarn of cost,
mower, and time to provide guidance, assistance, and standards to^n~3
Records Officers and other interested officials for the. dards
management of reports in their components.
e+. In order to minimize the time and effort required for your
research, please give careful consideration to the possibility of re-
developing and expanding the material that is already available in the
Staff and in NS. Some additional creation and development will be
necessary to modernize this material and to integrate automated reporting
principles and procedures. We need a. practical product immediately
useable by all Records Officers. rta Management aid and guide
mart fit the existing authority of and be persuasive in itself
or its obviously beneficial results. Tae package and procedure must be
economically produceable, easily communicated, and simply Implemented.
5. Our procedure for this Project also is intended to minimize the
possibility of false starts or unproductive tangents. Consequently, I
will appreciate it if you will develop an outline of the several areas
of your intended research and general plan and objectives which we can
discuss before you start the Project. We also should establish some
t r-nd
reviews .
