1. Attached for your review and approval is a draft concept
paper for the joint undertaking by the Office of Communications
(OC) and the Office of Information Technology (OIT) of the devel-
opment of an Agency Network Management System (NMS). The concept
paper is the product of a small team of technical professionals
from OC and OIT, knowledgeable of the re177tivities and the
architectural thrusts of the two offices.
2. The principal finding of the team's assessment is that a
jointly sponsored and staffed program is needed because of the
strongly interacting character of the evolving Agency network. A
single, jointly staffed project office is recommended to manage
the development of the NMS. Also included in the paper are as-
sessments of the character of the operational control topology
that is required (by exam project organization structure
and a near term schedule.

3. If senior management concurs with the general approach,
achieving the schedule requires that early decisions be made
with respect to identification and dedication of resourc
the assignment of top level management responsibilities.
