A state-of-the-art management information system which would allow a Type Command to efficiently control assigned assets by
thorough integration of the many currently distinct mangement systems is critical in this era of rapid technological growth, data
overabundance, and expanding naval commitments. A significant problem with the current development of such a system is its inherent
large size and a requirement to use an unproven methodology, Information Engineering (IE). This thesis analyzes the modernization of
the Type Commander Headquarters Automated Information System, THAIS, identifies problems related to the effort and discusses the use
of IE on a major redesign project.
