MIL-PRF-32029

Abstract

This specification covers performance requirements for the U.S. Army's Automated Configuration Management System (ACMS). It defines the functional requirements for ACMS, interface characteristics, and the environment in which it must operate. <b><u>Intended Use:</u></b> ACMS is a system of systems that provides configuration and product data management support for Army products and programs in a paper-free acquisition and logistics environment. Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) PDM products are intended to be the foundation of ACMS. Appendix A, ACMS Concept Overview, provides information relative to the nature and roles of the ACMS. Appendix B, ACMS Support of Army Products and Data Life Cycles, and Appendix C, ACMS Support to Selected Business Processes, provide information relative to the use of the ACMS. ACMS system administrators will have competency in their target operating systems, database administration, and performance tuning. ACMS functional users will have basic PC skills, including familiarity with their target operating systems such as Windows or UNIX, will have attended ACMS training, and will have skills consistent with the role to which they are assigned. For example, a Configuration Management Specialist will be knowledgeable in Configuration Management theory. <br>
