          The Honorable Daniel K. Inouye
          Chairman, Subcommittee on Defense
          Committee on Appropriations
          United States Senate

          The Honorable John P. Murtha
          Chairman, Subcommittee on Defense
          Committee on Appropriations
          House of Representatives


          House Report 102-328, the Conference report on the
          Department of Defense's fiscal year 1992 appropriations,
          directed us to analyze the capabilities of two Air Force
          systems: the Core Automated Maintenance System (CAMS) and
          the Reliability and Maintainability Information System
          (REMIS). The conferees expressed concern about the
          capability of these two systems to provide timely,
          accurate, and comprehensive information to Air Force
          managers. They further directed that we provide our
          analysis by March 31, 1992.

          In subsequent meetings with your offices, we agreed to
          1) provide an overview of both systems' capabilities;
          2) identify systems problems reported by the Air Force;
          and 3) develop a funding profile estimating the
          additional funds required to complete and operate both
          systems.

          We gathered this information from January through March
          1992. As such, we did not have sufficient time to test
          the accuracy of the CAMS and REMIS data bases or to
          interview a random, statistically significant sample of
          users. We did, however, interview officials from and
          reviewed documentation supplied by the Air Force, the
          CAMS and REMIS program offices, Litton Computer Services,
          I-NET Inc., and Dynamics Research Corporation. In
          addition, we used a structured questionnaire to interview
          CAMS users at four Air Force bases.
