Abstract
In order to fight the effects of the current international crisis, and in order to keep up with the internal budget cuts and reductions, the Portuguese Air Force is forced to develop mechanisms to improve its efficiency as an organization. An example of these mechanisms is the Integrated Management System (SIAGFA). Its main goal is to increase organizational efficiency, by the reduction of human and material resources, to perform certain management tasks in different areas of interest. The focus of this research is centered mainly in the SIAGFA operational component, specifically in information regarding the operational qualifications, concerning each crew member. It determines whether the individual has the necessary skills to fly a specific aircraft and what missions he can execute within the range of missions for which the aircraft is intended. The research, based on Organizational Engineering concepts and on Information Architecture methodology, identified the necessary requirements for integrating the different operational qualification events within the same baseline, providing a basis framework for cataloguing and identifying who is qualified, who is missing some event to be qualified and who has lost qualification.
