NALCOMIS [ref a, ch 10] (Naval Aviation Logistics Command Management

Information System) NAVAL AVIATION LOGISTICS COMMAND MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM (NALCOMIS) ORGANIZATIONAL LEVEL MAINTENANCE ACTIVITY (OMA) - A modern, real time, on-line responsive computer based automated MIS, allows Navy and Marine Corps aviation maintenance unit personnel to record flight and maintenance actions. O-level maintenance managers can use this data to quickly obtain timely and accurate aircraft and equipment maintenance status, scheduled maintenance requirements and additional information required in their day-to-day management and decision making process. b. SERMIS [ref a, ch 10] (SUPPORT EQUIPMENT RESOURCES MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM.) The replacement system for the Application Data for Material Readiness List. A collection of technical and cataloging data identifying SE end items required for O-level, I-level, and D-level aircraft maintenance. SERMIS provides the SECA with on-line visibility of source, allowance, inventory, and rework data to aid in inventory

control. SERMIS is the repository of master data for printing IMRLs and provides in-use asset visibility to NAVICP, NAVAIRWARCENACDIV Lakehurst, NJ, and COMNAVAIRSYSCOM. c. LAMS [ref a, ch 10] LOCAL ASSET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (LAMS) - An automated MIS which provided standardized local management of IMRL assets through the use of bar code technology. It provides for an accurate wall to wall inventory, which can be accomplished by unit personnel, resulting in significant reductions of manpower expenditures and operational disruptions. Once implemented, LAMS uses the SE Transaction Report (OPNAV 4790/64) as the source document; therefore, it is compatible with SERMIS. It is designed to interface with existing and scheduled SE management programs. d. SEATS/ICAPS [ref a, ch 10] is a microcomputer based system which provides a standardized method to manage, report and generate hard copy Created by LTJG KyungNho "TACO" Kim Reviewed by CWO3 Dale Lansdown 109. Aviation Management

Information System Fundamentals Page 2 of 6 history records on ALSS components and installed explosive devices. (ICAPS is no longer used) e. MEASURE [ref a, ch 10] (METROLOGY AUTOMATED SYSTEM FOR UNIFORM RECALL AND REPORTING) A metrology system for the recall and reporting of test equipment by means of MIS techniques, maintains records of calibration and automatically recalls items when due for calibration. See CUSTOMER ACTIVITY, FIELD CALIBRATION ACTIVITY (FCA), FORMATS, METER CARD, and SUBCUSTODIAN. f. SUADPS [ref b, sec 5300] Shipboard Uniform Automated Data Processing System. All transfers and cash sales of material from a SAC 207 activity to a nonsupported activity (except excess offloads) will be processed using the SUADPS-RT Material Requirements External (MRE) Function except USID A activities which will use UNREP. Transfers are classified into the following types: a. Transfers To End-Use Operating Forces (DI X34) The service designator code assigned to the activity will

normally be R or V and the fund or accounting code will indicate that DFAS will be the authorized accounting activity (AAA). b. Transfers To End-Use Shore Activities (DI X38) The activitys service designator code is N, fund code or accounting data cited is not NWCF and AAA is other than DFAS. c. Transfers To NWCF Activities (Other Supply Officers) (DI X37) The accounting data cited or applicable to the fund code on the transfer document must contain the NWCF appropriation 97X4930. This category includes SAC 207 ships and activities and NWCF facilities ashore (FISC, NSY, or NAS). d. Offload Of Excess Material (DI X37) e. Cash Sales (DI X35) g. ASKIT [ref c] * Aviation Storekeeper Information Tracking. The ASKIT system is designed to assist in the areas of material requisitioning, requisition tracking, follow-up and financial data processing and management by reducing the amount of time required to accomplish day to day tasks. The system supports multi-OFC, multi-fund code,

multi-detachment and multi-TEC. ASKIT essentially automates the accounting functions as prescribed by P-3013 and other funding related instructions from COMNAVAIRPAC and COMNAVAIRLANT. http://www.spawarnavymil/fleet/askit h. SALTS [ref d] * Streamlined Automated Logistics Transmission System. WinSALTS is a Client-Server application designed to be a "One Stop" Logistics Network, able to pick-up and deliver all your data requirements with only one login and password. WinSALTS is used to "prepare" files for transmission, from various sources within your command (i.e, requisitions from the SNAP system, payroll data from disbursing, or e-mail from the crew). Each file is assigned a unique name, encrypted, and then compressed to about one-third its original size. Created by LTJG KyungNho "TACO" Kim Reviewed by CWO3 Dale Lansdown 109. Aviation Management Information System Fundamentals Page 3 of 6 The data is transmitted to the SALTS project at the Naval

Support Activity Philadelphia, where WinSALTS Central routes it to its final destination, based on the file suffix (which is assigned by the WinSALTS Client), or by the addresses provided (for e-mail and messages). Data transmitted via INMARSAT satellite is received at one of the INMARSAT earth stations in Connecticut or California, then sent over telephone land lines to WinSALTS Central at NSA Philadelphia. WinSALTS can also be used with regular telephone lines or over the INTERNET. The WinSALTS Client works in an offline method, meaning file preparation is done inside the Client, and only when the WinSALTS Operator elects to connect to SALTS central, is the actual connection made. During this short (burst) transmission (usually only a few minutes via modem, or a few seconds through the INTERNET), all prepared files are uploaded to WinSALTS Central, and all files awaiting pickup in your "mailbox" are downloaded into your PC for further processing. Program updates are

automatically transmitted and update your Client, eliminating manual program maintenance. WinSALTS is available 24 hours a day and has a 100% audit trail. Data file delivery to final destinations is usually accomplished in a matter of a few minutes, except where data owners request data only a few times each day. http://www.saltsnavymil/ i. AEMS [ref e] AIRCRAFT ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (AEMS): An automated engine management system that provides on-line status and condition of any engine, propulsion system, or module. The system is used extensively by ACCs and other managers to effect the most efficient distribution of engine assets. The AEMS tracks location and status (installed, uninstalled, RFI and non-RFI) of engines, propulsion systems, and modules world wide, and provides reasons for any changes. The system also tracks both RFI and non-RFI spare engines, propulsion systems, and modules which are in transit, awaiting repair or rework, or actually in repair or rework. The system is

used extensively by controlling custodian and other managers to effect the most efficient distribution of engine assets. Refer to NAVAIRINST 13700.15 and ACC instructions for detailed procedures. j. SAME [ref f] The I level SAME system database contains the assets that are in the custody of the respective I level. The database is used to identify usage driven maintenance and to update the asset data as I level maintenance is completed on F/A-18 F414-GE-400/F404-GE-400/402 engines, components and modules. Each I level database resides on an I level server. k. SERP [ref g] http://www.navsefsocom/serp l. Automated AMRR [ref k] Aircraft Material Readiness Report. m.
