Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF) DATIM has made great progress. People are working hard – and getting things done. The UNLV and SUU staff are fantastic. Biggest Challenge: constructive feedback from users – NFS and FIA. Need to get more people using the tool.

ATIM VS EVALIDator performance • Apples To Oranges: ATIM designed to create and storeestimates and how they were created, EVALIDator for speed • DATIM datamart supports varied inventory types and on-the-fly attribute generation, FIADB is fixed in design • ATIM can not beatEVALIDator performance with its current database implementation • How fast should ATIM be? At what cost?
Bottom Line DATIM has made great progress. People are working hard – and getting things done. The UNLV and SUU staff are fantastic. Biggest Challenge: constructive feedback from users – NFS and FIA. Need to get more people using the tool.
