These efforts, involving all OL components, included the creation of the OL "Yellow Pages," service posters, i and Logistics Advisory Notices (LAN's). cp,, Commercial Logistical Applications System IMSS has continued to serve as the focal point in the development of a major OL initiative--the creation of the Commercial Logistical Applications System (CLAS), formerly the Logistics Integrated Management System (LIMS). CLAS is an automated system that will efficiently serve OL's support mission of acquiring materiel and services for the entire Agency. Software packages written by Management Science America (MSA) were procured and tested for functionality and technical compatibility with the Office of Information Technology's "Corporate Data" environment and the Office of Finance's General Ledger software package. As a result of some major functional and technical deficiencies, the CLAS project team is reevaluating software packages by MSA and Cullinet (the vendor for the Corporate Data base management system).

On behalf of the Director of Logistics (D/L), IMSS also reviews, updates, and concurs on revisions/new regulations generated by other Agency components. The dynamic nature of OL's regulatory program is reflected in the following summary of FY-1986 completed actions: 1. Reviewed, revised, coordinated within OL, and released for publication by the Office of Information Services the following OL-originated regulatory issuances: Headquarters Regulations and Notices Employee Bulletins 2. Published for distrubition to all OL careerists in the Headquarters area: 25X1 Logistics Instructions Logistics Notices Logistics Advisory Notices 3. IMSS also reviewed, on behalf of the D/L, 83 proposed revisions to Agency regulatory issuances originated by other Agency offices. OL regulatory review is an essential effort designed to provide guidance to responsible officers throughout the Agency, permitting required operations within the parameters of applicable Federal laws and sound intelligence methods. Because of the Agency's myriad activities, information relative to regulations is constantly changing, and regulatory issuances are therefore in need of continual study. IMSS is currently pursuing an objective to update all Logistics Instructions and Notices dated prior to 1984.

These efforts, involving all OL components and employees, offer far-reaching and challenging opportunities and reflect the importance OL's top management places on its support mission. The Field Guide for Logistics Personnel, published by IMSS in April 1985, provides a concise, easy-to-read, but comprehensive aid to help logistics officers and others who perform logistics tasks overseas. Commercial Logistical Applications System IMSS has continued to serve as the focal point in the development of a major OL initiative--the creation of the Commercial Logistical Applications System (CLAS), formerly the Logistics Integrated Management System (LIMS). CLAS is an automated system that will efficiently serve OL's support mission of acquiring materiel and services for the entire Agency. A decision was made to explore the feasibility of using commercial packaged software to meet CLAS requirements. IMSS, working with Office of Information Technology (OIT) personnel, performed functional and technical evaluations of products. A proposal on software acquisition was made and is being evaluated by OIT. Regulatory Policy As one of its many functions, IMSS has the responsibility within OL for originating and/or reviewing regulatory issuances. Activities during FY 1985 included the following: o Originated published revisions of -- Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/27: CIA-RDP91-00280R000200320004-3 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/27: CIA-RDP91-0028OR000200320004-3 .7 r, t- x r, T o originated revisions (still in the coordination process) of -- o Reviewed, coordinated within OL, and forwarded for OIS publication the following OL-originated regulatory issuances -- 20 Headquarters Notices 14 Employee Bulletins o Published for distribution to all OL careerists in the Headquarters area -- 13 Logistics Instructions 9 Logistics Notices 2 Logistics Advisory Notices The dynamic nature of OL's regulatory program is evidenced by the large numbers of Logistics issuances noted in the above categories.

(This figure does not include the numerous proposed revisions and new issuances that IMSS reviewed without submitting formal comments/concurrence.) The Data Administration Service (DAS), now in its second year of serving OL word and data processing needs, continued in its focal point role of improving automated information management throughout the Office. The Chief, DAS, who also serves as a Deputy Chief of IMSS, is supported by a centralized staff of 17 and a decentralized staff of 30. Highlights of FY 1985 included the following: o Inventoried and documented approximately 581 word and data processing equipment items. o Continued expansion of Wang word processing equipment facilities to provide improved communication links and a broader range of capabilities. o Rebuilt the Agency Standard Automated Property System (ASAPS), which was accepted by 35 Agencywide users. Now that its enhanced features are known, new users are in queue to acquire the system. o Implemented the new management information system in the Printing and Photography Division. Additional features and enhancements will continue to be added. o Installed logistics-oriented personal computers at two major bases of the Office of Communications on a test basis. o Modified the operating software within the Contract Information System (CONIF) to permit electronic funds transfer (EFT) for vendor payment via the Office of Finance and the Treasury Department. o Filled most DAS vacancies by placing special emphasis on acquiring qualified part-time computer assistants who could support data input requirements resulting especially from CONIF's increasingly heavier workload and end-of-year closeout activities.
