SUBJECTz ODP Access to .the Special Center
1. in our recent disc~ls 3inns an electrical access to
the Special Center, we agree-1 tliat I Auld forward monthly
status reports to you. In order for us to met a zero-base
from which to start, I have coiled the following lists.
Attachment A lists those ODP staff and contractors with access
to the one-way link between tl~t ~~M/370 system and the Special
Center. Attachment B lists t:-cae OOP staff and contractors
with access to the TSO system in the Special Center, and
Attachment C lists those terminals in ODP space which could
access DDO systems. The list of ODP staff and contractors
who have unrestricted physical access to the Special Center
is currently being reviewed ai.f.. reduced. When that review
is complete, I will forward tlit-t list to you for use as a
zero-baseline.
2. The personnel and equipment noted in the attachments
represent our current operati4Taai requir meat. These resources
are dedicated to the function i of system m3 development and
maintenance for the operating ~ 1~stems , software and hardware
support to the COMTEN Conununi ations controllers, administra-
tive support to the TSO, G171119, and VM systems, the physical
operation of computer systtWs, and the physical maintenance
of computer hardware and supportive systems in the Special
Center.
3. 1 will advise you, 3onthly, of all activity against
these access lists. The Customer Services Staff/ODP has
administrative control of the lists and is prepared to give

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
ware pecia ist, DDO/IMS,
SUBJECT: CRT Terminal Projections for FY 81
1. This memo documents the results of a telephone
conversation I had with on 14 February 1980.
2. We, projected requirements
for 106 terminals in FY 81 by filling out ODP's "New
Terminal Requirement for FY 81" forms in December of 1978.
On these forms we projected the following:
-34 terminals for COMET II
-63 terminals for the display of incoming
message traffic, COMET retrieval/display,
and cable preparation transmission
-9 terminals for DMS users
3. In each case we identified these terminals as
being in the enhanced program level. This was an honest
evaluation as they all represent increases beyond the
current level.
4. informed me that the Agency's FY 81
Congressional Budget contains all (70) user terminal
requirements included in the minimum and austere program
levels, but none that were in the current or enhanced
levels. The result is that the DO has no CRT terminals
approved for FY 81. 5. Lew says that although the DO is not authorized
to get any of the 70 terminals ODP will get in FY 81, we
can get as many as we want by transferring the requisite
amount of money to ODP along with our terminal requests
(i.e. we can get them if we pay for them). Lew says
there is no Congressional or OMB limit on the number of
terminals the Agency can get in FY 81 -- only a limit
on the amount of money ODP could budget for them.

6. I think we were dealt with unfairly concerning
our FY 81 requirements. By being honest and showing all
of our new terminals as extensions beyond the current
level, we received no terminal allocation at all for the
year. I think this lesson compels us to show some subset
of our terminal projections in the minimum and austere
levels, even if this does stretch the definition of these
levels somewhat.

Needless to say the message in
the attached memo comes as a
surprise to me. Is there any way
out of this situation in FY 81
without spending additional DO
funds? Should we henceforth
follow the suggestion

NOTE TO D/ODP
STATINTL
Answer to Questions
The only way out of DO funding is for ODP to reprogram.
The DO usually has year-end funds for reprogramming, perhaps
they will again this year. I think the decision has already
been made on placing their terminals at more critical levels
in the future because in 1982 all their requirements were
moved below the enhanced level to austere and current levels.
Background
I am sure I informally discussed the 1981 situation with
respect: to DO terminals with either shortly after STATINTL
the Comptroller eliminated our enhanced level terminal package.
My plan was to officially notify the Directorate's which 1981
requirements we could support after we got the final word on our
Congressional Budget. This information would be provided as
an attachment to the 1982 ODP call for terminal requirements.
Unfortunately, the 1982 call was delayed as a result of accom-
modating Engineering's requested changes to the 1982 request
form. I personally hand carried the 1982 Call to the DO on
STATINTL
29 January. - was tied upea on a panel and - was sick. STATINTL
I left the package with their secretary with instructions for
to call me when he came in. After several days, I called
and explained the problem in 1981. I didn't realize when I
was talking with him he didn't have the 1982 Call I had left with

his secretary. On about 14 February, I got a call notifying
me the DO would be a little late in responding to our Call
(later I learned they just found it in the safe where the
secretary had placed it when I gave it to her). Shortly,
thereafter I received calls from
asking about the 1981 problem in great detail. Sam's memo
is an:accurate record of our conversation except I don't
remember talking about transferring money to ODP.
Perhaps the DO was treated unfairly. However, I
believe it was a result of their system for handling their
requirements. They do not allow components to have ADP
Control Officers and I doubt if our Call reached the same
level of users in the DO as it did in the other Directorates
Their requirements, in my opinion, don't reflect individual
user requirements. Instead, they have taken the easy way out.
Every request we have had from other components is on a
separate sheet of paper and individually prioritized--which
requires a lot of work. Instead they identify blanket require-
ments for large number of terminals, (34, 62, and 8 in 1981 plus 35
and 46 in 1982) without.prioritizing their individual requirements.
Since we have changed to individual justification for each
terminal, only the DO has not submitted separate individual
requirements for their terminals and each year the DO requirements
have been larger than any other Directorate.

The DO response to our terminal calls reflect their
centralized approach for identifying requirements which does
not offer the prioritization flexibility of the individual
requirements provided all the other Directorates.
If our 1982 Program is approved at the current level, the
following terminals will be provided to our users in the two
year period.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Directorate & Office ADP Control Officers
ie , Management Staff, ODP
SUBJECT : FY 1981 Requirements for Computer Terminals
1. Annually, the Office of Data Processing requests
each office using or planning to use ODP resources to
provide their requirements for computer terminals for
the forthcoming program year. This information is used
by ODP to establish an overall requirement for terminals
that can be successfully justified and defended at subse-
quent program reviews.
2. In the Agency's FY 1980 Program, ADP and
specifically new terminals came under close review by
the EAG, RMS, and OMB. As a result of these reviews,
the number of terminals included in the FY 1980 Con-
gressional Budget is considerably less than requested.
The primary reason that a larger number of terminals
was not approved is the lack of hard requirements for
each terminal requested and the inability to relate
requirements to a specific level in each user's Decision
Unit.
3. In order to strengthen the justification of
computer terminal requirements in the FY 1981 Program,
a new form has been designed. 8 separate form is required
for each new term inal requires emt..
4. The routing sheet for each Directorate ADP
Control Officer's copy of this memorandum will contain
the number of terminals ODP is currently allocating
that Directorate for FY 1979 and 1980. This allocation
should be further suballocated by the Directorate ADP
Control officer for each office in order that a base
number of terminals can be established at the beginning
of FY 1981 on which FY 1981 requirements can be based.

Instructions for Preparin5 Formfor New Terminal Requirements
For FY 1981 -
1. A separate form is required for each new-terminal
requirement to be supported by ODP in FY 1981. All com-
pleted forms should be forwarded by COB 20 December 1978
to Chief, Program and Budget Group, ODP via the Directorate
ADP Control Officer. Questions concerning the number of
terminals assigned or endin installation should be
STAT1NTL directed to All other
questions shou be directed or STATINTL
2. Special instructions for certain areas of the
form are discussed below:
Office Requirement No. - This is a unique number
for each requirement. It should be provided by
the Office ADP Control officer and used to iden-
tify this specific requirement in future communi-
cations. This number should be used when requesting
the installation of the terminal in FY 1981.
Non-Standard Device - State why this is necessary
and describe the special features required, e.g.,
light pen, floppy disk, line speed, print quality,
and etc.
Requirement - Relate this to the overall mission
of the Agency. Identify the product and the con-
sumers. Name the ODP project(s) this terminal
will support.
Impact of Disapproval - Describe in quantitative
terms--increase time for final reports from two
to four days, ten hours of overtime will be required
each weekend, delays program development by six
months, etc.
Decision Unit Name and Number - Use the information
in your FY 1980 Zero Base Budget Request.
