Summary data from two industry surveys and data provided by workshop attendees via an R&M task automation questionnaire are presented that indicate the status of automation within industry from the respondents' viewpoint. An overview of the computer-aided technologies being used in industry for the development, design, and manufacture of weapon systems is provided, and a general baseline of industry-implemented computer-aided technology is established. Government and industry response to the DoD computer-aided acquisition and logistics support (DCALS) initiative is assessed. The general conclusions drawn from the surveys are as follows: tasks are generally handled manually, stand-alone CAE (computer-aided engineering) tools are not being used to the extent available, reliability is more automated than maintainability and the nonuser population is slightly more optimistic about the present automation status.
