  • Question

    When doing a quick google search for MAIS (Major Automated Information System), I clicked on a DAU page, and it simply stated "MAIS Obsolete term. Major Automated Information System Acquisition Program." Is it actually an obsolete term, or was it replaced or renamed?

    Answer

    There is no MAIS anymore. Nothing replaced it.  MAIS was the IT version of MDAPs, yet with much lower cost thresholds. Congress incorporated what was in an old 5000.02 into statute to create 10 USC 144A on MAIS Critical Change, the IT version of Nunn-McCurdy, which also included schedule breaches.  Congress removed MAIS from statute, and A&S removed it from policy.
