FROM: Edward J. Maloney
Director of Information Technology
SUBJECT: Decentralized ADP Support for Office of Technical Services
REFERENCE: OIT 1081-86, dtd 2 January 1987, Subj: ADP Support for DA Offices
1. Attached is a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) which, once formalized,
will obligate the Office of Information Technology (OIT) to provide
decentralized data processing support to the Office of Technical Services
(OTS). The terms of this agreement have been discussed among our respective
staffs. We propose to establish a Dispersed Office Support (DOS) unit under
your management co-located with your personnel. The DOS unit would provide
software development, software maintenance, technical guidance, and
office-wide ADP planning to your Office. Providing these activities on a
decentralized basis will help ensure that OIT activities are responsive to
your priorities.
2. In order to provide you with the proposed service, we will create a
DOS unit of twelve OIT personnel and a number of your personnel who are
directly involved in the development, maintenance, and handling of OTS
systems. We will, over time, provide seven applications personnel on a
rotational basis, in addition to the Information Management Officer (IMO).
The Information Services Center Chief (ISC) and three ISC personnel will be
considered part of the DOS unit until another customer requires the services
of the ISC. We will conduct an annual review to determine any need for
adjustment to this organizational structure.
3. OIT will manage the team, and provide career management for the
personnel involved. Tasking and day-to-day priorities would be provided by
OTS managers working through the DOS chief.
4. In order to staff up to your requirements, we request that you provide
four of the seven slots required for the applications programmers. Details of
this proposal can be found in the attached MOA.
