Transaction Data. Requisitions, work orders, and other logistics transactions will be
automatically captured to feed management accounting and cost accounting systems.
Equipment Monitoring. Equipment condition monitoring data needed by the logistics system
will be captured, where practicable, through direct interface with systems.
Configuration Data. Configuration based data, including technical information, will be
recorded and maintained as a single integrated set of information for acquiring and
supporting equipment and platforms. Information about the configuration will start to be
collected during requirements documentation and continue to be used and maintained
throughout the asset's life cycle.
Configuration Changes. There will be automatic notification and tracking of pending,
planned, and approved configuration changes, including implementation status to the
component level.
Source Data Automation. The logistics database will be updated at the time and location of
the event. A record of each event will be maintained for audit and analysis purposes. Proper
actions will be triggered when planning a change and proper updates will occur as a result of
change.
Information Systems Technology. Information systems for future USCG Logistics System
users will have tools that facilitate the production, accessibility, and use of data. The IRM
architecture to support this characteristic will be consistent with the G-E SIRMP.
Common Point of Access. Both providers and users will be able to access and exchange
logistics information through their workstations.
Visibility of the Logistics System. Appropriate logistics information will be available to
users at all levels of the organization, e.g. supply inventory, configuration, maintenance, and
technical information. Accessibility of this information will empower users while providing
for appropriate logistics system measurement/evaluation.
E.
Guiding/Changing
Logistics Awareness Program. An information program will inform all USCG officers,
enlisted personnel, and civilian personnel about the principles, policy, and business practices
of USCG Integrated Logistics.
Common Terminology. Common terminology will be used for communication and
information management.
Standards and Specifications. Established government and industry standards (e.g.,
LSA/MILSTD 1388), tailored as necessary, will be applied to each acquisition and
modification.
