Abstract
The Cost Account Roll-Up (CARU) System mas designed to
provide accurate, real-time labor distribution data to
managers at Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) field
activities in a format consistent with the way in which they
are budgeted. The system also provides productivity
information in conjunction with the labor distribution data.
This study was undertaken to assess the effectiveness of CARU
as an information system in support of NAVSUP's latest
budgeting strategy, the Productive Unit Resourcing System.
The results of the study indicate that CARU is an
effective information system. It does an excellent Job of
supporting the Productive Unit Resourcing System. CARU has
the potential to excel as a decision—making tool for managers
in matters of employee performance and financial
accountability.
