MEDALS is an automated information system that serves as the central index of engineering data for the Department of Defense (DOD). DOD technical data repositories, which store, maintain, and distribute the engineering drawings, supply the MEDALS program with technical drawing indexing data and associated information. The MEDALS program is linked to the acquisition process of technical data and maintains indexing information throughout the documents life cycle. It is an interactive on-line system that indicates quickly and easily where engineering drawings or documents reside, links you to the WEB repositories, and provides you with the information and ability to order it fast by phone, mail, FAX, E-mail, or electronic order requests.
