The Post-Dam System. Volume 5. Harvard Project Manager (HPM).

Abstract : Mission accomplishment in PACAF and USAFE depends on base recovery capability in a postattack environment. Base recovery includes identifying, analyzing, and repairing facility damage. For facilities critical to sortie generation, this process must be accomplished expediently. In a postattack environment, field information on facility damage is collected and analyzed to determine structural integrity and usability. From this analysis, a repair schedule is developed. This is currently a time consuming process that is shortened by using a computerized system. The scope of this effort was to develop a computerized postattack damage assessment system that recommends repair strategies, keeps inventory of materials and equipment, and schedules repairs based on manpower and equipment availability.
