  • Roles & responsibilities between camp operator & client are 'served & preserved'.
  • VAMS is the contractor's choice so why not leverage existing skills, data and buy-in?
  • User web movement requests = electronic confirmation and no paper.
  • Multiple site support = many remote site systems feed to a single client interface.
