Topic E: CSS STAMIS
Subtopic 2: Hardware Repair Parts
Observation Synopsis
Hardware repair for STAMIS computers is normally performed by the Tobyhanna FRA. The CSS automation management office (CSSAMO) is not authorized to open any STAMIS computers due to the Tobyhanna contract. CSSAMO is only authorized to perform software repair and trouble-shooting, and to provide STAMIS computer exchange systems to units that would otherwise require only rudimentary hardware replacement (specifically A drives). This is not only inefficient in regards to time, but it requires CSSAMO to haul many "float" systems around the battlefield.
Lessons Learned
- CSSAMO is not authorized to open any STAMIS computers due to the Tobyhanna contract.
- CSSAMO is only authorized to perform software repair and troubleshooting, and to provide STAMIS computer exchange systems to units that would otherwise require only rudimentary hardware replacement.
DOTMLPF Implications
Doctrine and Materiel: CSSAMO should be authorized to purchase and install replacement parts into STAMIS computers.
