MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Finance
ATTENTION
SUBJECT : Candidate for Office of Joint Computer Support
1. I would appreciate your help in identifying someone from the
Finance career service with skills in cost analysis and accounting who
would be assigned to a key position in the Resource Management Branch
of our Operations Division.
2. This person would be involved with:
a. Accounting and reporting the cost of computer services
provided to user projects. We use computer systems for this now but we
need to refine and improve these systems. Some idea of what I am talking
about is provided in greater detail in the attached paper "A Cost Allocation
Model".
b. Operating, adjusting, and enforcing a system for
allocating and controlling the computer resources that are provided to a
user. An OJCS proposal for computer resource allocation has been
circulated to all the Directorates and is on the Management Committee
agenda.
co Developing and operating a system for controlling and
predicting the funds required to rent, purchase, and maintain the ever
changing inventory of computer equipment in the computer center.
3. I need an officer who needs little day-to-day supervision, and
who can take the initiative in searching out problems and deriving solutions.
A rotation to OJCS for three years could provide officers in your career
service with an opportunity to develop their ideas in financial analysis and
to gain first hand experience with the special problems concerned with
the management of computer resources.
4. Please let me know if you think you can help us in this matter.
