Visions for APIMS • Air Force Vision for APIMS/CCS • Create a World-Class Integrated Environmental, Safety, and Occupational Health “System of Systems” • Develop federal, state, and local regulatory reports • Identify health trends • Provide environmental management tools • Provide pollution prevention management tools • Facilitate operational risk management • Drastically reduces Costs by sharing information • Reduce operational costs by making better decisions
What is APIMS • A primary component of Command Core System (CCS) • An integrated relational database designed to manage environmental, safety, and occupational health datasets • APIMS is an air quality management tool that was designed to be flexible for use at any installation • Track and prepare Air Emission Inventory • Regulatory Compliance • Permit, Title V, NESHAP • Automated Logs • Checklists • Sharing the Data among Different Functional Areas • More Efficient • Reduces Cost • One of the primary modules for EESOH-MIS
Major Benefits of APIMS • Consistent Air Program Information Reducing: • AEI Reporting Cost • Training and Certification Expenses • Redundant Data Collection • Administrative Burden • Validated and Standardized Information to support: • P2 Opportunities • Regulatory Opinions • Congressional Data Calls • Risk Analysis

EESOH-MIS Overview • Enterprise Environment, Safety, & Occupational Health Management Information System (EESOH-MIS) • Previously Automated Civil Engineering System Environmental Module (ACES-EM) • Phased development/deployment of 18 environmental applications • Intended to integrate with other ACES modules • Operations • Fire Department • Housing Management • Real Property • Program Management • Other modules… Part of the Air Force Modernization Program
EESOH-MIS Overview • EESOH-MIS • Focused on improving and standardizing business practices • Integrated, multimedia system vs. multiple “stovepipe” systems • Internal and external Air Force Interfaces • EESOH-MIS will be a revolutionary, not evolutionary change in the way the Air Force does business • Is NOT an incremental adaptation and interfacing of existing legacy systems • Strategic goals • Integrated solution • Adaptable • Standardized • Supports shared information
Integration – What it Means • Common data set • Activities/Requirements/Functionality • Identifies overlap – eliminates redundancy
Defining the Common Data Set • Material Product Data • Metadata required for indexing, querying, and calculations • Scanned MSDS Image • “Valued Added” Data Material Product Data
