  Adverse Impact on Training and Operations Due to Non-receipt of Requested
  ADP Equipment
  TOs
  1. Even prior to the time this element transferred to DIA it was recogniced that an
  Automated Data Processing/Office Information System (ADP/OIS) 6f.some sort would be
  required to replace the one on loan from the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security
  Command '(USAINSCOM).
  2. Based on assurances that such a system would "soon" be available, unit organization
  and personnel arrangements were made accordingly, and only one secretary position was
  requested. Now,-approximately two years since those firs 't assurances that a system would
  be forthcoming, we have seen at least eight "guaranteed delivery dates" come and go.
  The next scheduled date is "sometime this week", and involves equipment to be temporarily
  supplied until the equipment actually contracted for is finally ready.
  3. Lack of ADP/OIS support has-had significant negative impact on unit operations for
  the 3rd quarter of CY 1986. Primary is loss of data-base correlative functions in
  site generation and utility assessment package analysis--without data-base support these
  functionsare impopdible. A second negative impact is secretarial overload. As the
  only person available with sufficient typing skills to manually transcribe session
  -transcripts, produce typed drafts, and execute final-copy reports, the secretary has
  been seriously backlogged with material requiring her attention. Collection response and
  from-tasking-to-final-repart time has been greatly increased. Finally, for similar
  reasons beneficial but non-essential analytical and theoretical work independently
  produced by project personnel has been greatly curtail&d.
  4. The training report to which this memorandum is attached accounts for a
  mission output in both quality and quantity. With the added assistance of
  ADP/OIS system, this output would have been augmented significantly.
