Abstract
A Materials Management System has been developed for the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). A short discussion of TVA should help to put the system into perspective. The Tennessee Valley Authority is a corporate agency of the Federal Government created by Act of Congress in 1933, and operates with a reasonable degree of the autonomy and flexibility of a private corporation. Because TVA is charged with improving the navigability and providing for the flood control of the Tennessee River, TVA employs approximately 38,000 people, covers seven states, and expends approximately $1.5 billion annually for operation and maintenance.
