| Local Asset Management System (LAMS) |
| Primary Purpose | The LAMS program is a standardized system for the |
| management of Support Equipment (SE) at all |
| three levels of Naval Aviation Maintenance. LAMS |
| enhances the control of inventory through |
| up-line reporting of SE assets to the Support |
| Equipment Resources Management Information System |
| commonly referred to as SERMIS. SERMIS contains |
| the master database of equipment for the |
| Aviation Maintenance Material Readiness List |
| (AMMRL) Program. LAMS provides automated methods |
| of tracking SE assets at the local level. LAMS |
| uses the SE Transaction Report (TR) as the source |
| document. TRs are processed in LAMS and the |
| data is submitted to the Support Equipment |
| Controlling Authorities (SECAs) for upload into |
| SERMIS. LAMS references the Individual Material |
| Readiness List (IMRL) data which is downloaded |
| from SERMIS. At the local level, activities are |
| allowed to compute their excesses and deficits |
| according to the authorized allowances in their |
| IMRL. The Activity Inventory Report (AIR) data |
| from SERMIS is used by the LAMS to generate the |
| AIRCOMP Report, which compares the inventory |
| reported in SERMIS with the inventory reported in |
| LAMS. LAMS provides real-time automated methods |
| of aviation SE management. |
| Sub-Functions | Standardizes inventory control procedures for |
| Naval Aviation IMRL assets. |
| Allows real time tracking of an activities IMRL |
| assets (issue, return, etc.). |
| Improves inventory accuracy and reduces man-hours |
| by using barcodes. |
| Provides printed reports for all levels of |
| management. |
| Provides interface with SERMIS. |
