c. SUPPLY ASSET TRACKING SYSTEM (SATS): Funding for this program was added by Congress in the FY01 and FY02 markup of
the Air Force Budget. Reference FY01 HAC Report 106-644, June 2000, page 135; FY01 Appropriations Conference Report 106-754, July
2000, page 208; and FY02 Appropriations Conference Report 107-350, December 2001, page 291. Supply Asset Tracking System provides
total asset visibility and reduces documentation at base level. It is a front-end processing application to the Standard Base Supply that tracks all
assets in base supply in a real- time mode. SATS incorporates radio frequency terminals, smart cards, and electronically confirms each
transaction to eliminate documentation in the delivery process.

procurement in FY02 and FY03 are identified on the following P-40a and are representative of items to be procured. Items procured during
