Abstract :
An overview is given of the Productivity, Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability (PRAM) Project 00-256, which aims to integrate the Digital Multimedia Information System (DMIS) into the Reconnaissance Module Automatic Test System (RMATS). Benefits to be derived from the incorporation of the DMIS and return on investment for the US Air Force are discussed. The process used to obtain approval and funding support for this advanced maintenance aiding and data collection system is described.<>
