Abstract
Lack of adequate accounting control of high value secondary aeronautical
items has been a prime subject of many reports on inventory
management in the Military Departments. The importance of special management
of high value items has long been recognized. However, until
recently, accounting control of high value assets was not given the management
attention required in effective overall inventory management
systems. As a result, some extremely complex, expensive, and sophisicated
inventory management systems have proved less than satisfactory
due to a lack of accurate asset knowledge as input. Accounting control
for high value assets, as discussed herein, is the means for providing
the accurate asset knowledge that is prerequisite to any good inventory
management system.
