FORT STEWART, Ga. -- Soldiers of 703rd Brigade Support Battalion, 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, learned how to use the Army Records Information Management System (ARIMS), Mar. 1, at Fort Stewart's education center.
ARIMS focuses on the management of long-term permanent records, and gives individuals a clear understanding of what records are required to be saved based off their respective jobs.
The Soldiers learned the basic function of the system and gained a refresher on managing all unit information within the Army’s standard.
“I want them to understand how to set up their supply rooms and make an account in the system,” said Staff Sgt. Shaniqua Smith, logistics noncommissioned officer in charge, 703rd Brigade Support Battalion, 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division
“This will help to overcome the problems we have been having with historical documentation and help to manage documentation and information regarding supply and/or administrative filing,” she said. “Although ARIMS will mostly be used by unit supply specialists, other military occupational specialties (MOS) should learn about the system.”
Anyone in the Army can use the system allowing them to digitally document all of their important files, she added.
Sgt. Rackel Cox , a student in the class and unit supply clerk with 703rd BSB said, “I feel this system will help organize supply files and assist my Soldiers when I am not around. They will be able to locate files and supplies and keep the office neat and clean as well.”
Smith hopes that Soldiers will be familiar enough with the system to carry it with them throughout their military career.
