APPENDIX E. Honor Awards Nomination System (HANS) Overview 

The HANS is a centralized web-based system for entering, editing, reviewing, and approving award nominations. This system is designed to be very user-friendly, with all actions originating from a menu-driven HANS Main Menu. The system will prompt you every step of the way and provide detailed instructions, in the form of help boxes, on most blocks of the form.
