Abstract
This thesis recommends ways to improve the content of the
training curriculum and software usability of the Fleet Management
System-Real Time (FMS-RT). The premise of this thesis is that the
Navy should increase its performance during major overhauls and
availabilities. According to experts, the current FMS-RT training program
could be improved with the addition of three curriculum areas:
project management training, advanced project management estimating
techniques, and the more specific assignment of responsibilities in
the implementation of the program. In addition, many problems and
possible enhancements to the FMS-RT software were identified by our
usability survey. Incorporating these changes to the training curriculum
and software should allow the navy to increase ships force performance
during overhauls.
