Defense ADP: Corporate Information Management Initiative Faces Significant Challenges : General Accounting Office (GAO) , April , 1991
From the report: "For many years the military services and other Defense organizations have developed and operated multiple, unique automated information systems, often to do similar jobs. For example, Defense has over 30 automated systems to pay its civilian employees. Because so many of these information systems were considered redundant, and because of the need to improve information management, the Deputy Secretary of Defense established the CIM initiative in October 1989. The initiative supports Defense’s efforts to improve operations and cut costs, as outlined in the July 1989 Defense Management Report to the President."
