The Logistics Metrics Analysis Reporting
System (LMARS)
at Transaction Services maintains logistics pipeline information for all wholesale items. LMARS
is populated with information from the MILSTRIP and MILSTRAP transactions that
flow through Transaction Services. LMARS reports response time within any of the 12
nodes of the logistics pipeline. All reporting time frames are in terms of days
LMARS maintains data from its inception, February 1997. Standard reports are available on a monthly basis.
