Check
that
your
unit
correctly
reports information in Property Book
Unit Supply-Enhanced (PBUSE) and/
or the Standard Army Maintenance
System-Enhanced (SAMS-E).
For example, verify serial numbers
(SNs) for
each
wheeled and tracked
vehicle in your unit. Then report vehicle
mileage each month by SN. Accurate
odometer readings are a must!
Part
of
your
unit’s
peacetime
training
dollars
is
based
on
the
monthly odometer readings reported
through SAMS-E.
Fortunately, there’s a great web-
based tool units can use to verify
that their odometer readings were
accurately reported up the chain of
command. Motor officers, sergeants,
and S3 and S4 staff can verify that the
correct information ended up in the
Logistics Information Warehouse.
The
Operating
and
Support
Management
Information
System
website (OSMISWEB) tracks vehicle use
and odometer information, and the
program generates mileage reports
from the entire Army.
Units are tracked quarterly, which
gives the Army the annual information
used to prepare the Army’s future
training budget. The mileage reports
are also used to brief the Vice Chief of
Staff of the Army monthly on training
execution.
To request an OSMIS user account, use your CAC or AKO credentials and visit:
Click on I accept and then Need an OSMIS user account? Complete and submit the form.
Once your account is active, you can locate your unit’s equipment by SN and verify
the odometer reading reported. Use the Monthly Management Reporting module in
OSMISWEB to track your unit’s usage.
