SYSTEM
LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Describe the
functions and state the purpose of the
Conventional Ammunition Integrated
Management System (CAIMS).
The Conventional Ammunition Integrated
Management System (CAIMS) is a management tool
for all echelons of the Navy that relate assets to require-
ments and to inventory managers for item decision-
making purposes.
The Naval Ordnance Center
(NAVORDCEN) in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania,
maintains the CAIMS ammunition stock status file.
Pertinent data is extracted from this file for distribution
to interested fleet and area commanders. The CAIMS
ammunition stock status file is not automatically
distributed to commands. It is available and maybe
requested by individual commands through normal chain-
of-command procedures.
The CAIMS ammunition
stock status file provides the following data:
1. Date of the last transaction report
2. Monthly and cumulative (to date this fiscal year)
expenditures by ammunition type, as listed
