US Army Materiel Systems Analysis Activity (AMSAA)
Website: web.amsaa.army.mil

The Army Materiel Systems Analysis Activity (AMSAA) is designated as the Army and Army Materiel Command (AMC) responsible official for executing the SDC program, which covers many Army systems at various locations worldwide. The Army Sample Data Collection (SDC) program enables AMSAA to conduct responsive and effective materiel and logistics systems analysis to support decision making for equipping and sustaining the US Army. SDC enables “data driven decisions” concerning fleet management, O&S cost reduction, reliability improvement programs, technology base investment trades, and performance based logistics. Collection efforts conducted at operational Army units are hands-on, verified at the source, with no interference to the unit to the maximum extent possible. Usage and maintenance data are collected at serial number level of detail. Collectors conduct quality reviews to ensure accuracy and completeness, and the program has built in edits for quality assurance. All data originates from the equipment operators and maintainers through current Standard Army Management Information Systems, however, SDC efforts provide operational elements, personal readings, reports on unique equipment, tailored reports, and include actual maintenance man hours. SDC continues throughout the Army in order to provide information and analysis for the major Army decision makers, and includes analysis of the impacts of Reset, Modularity and Other Contingency Operations on Army equipment, and data collection and analysis to support Condition Based Maintenance. Special data collection initiatives can be tailored to address specific needs of program managers, field units, DA, and AMC. AMSAA’s SDC data analyses impact all phases of the Army’s acquisition cycle and provide information for Army decision makers, including DA, the ACOMs, ATEC, and PEO/PMs. Materiel issues impacting readiness and weapon systems performance are routinely identified through the SDC program.
