Assess whether cost history can support a fair-and-reasonable call (5b1c6a)
August 31, 2026
SITUATION The working file is scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN. NSN research lead in a depot whose parts master does not match DLA has to name Fund and move materiel or Cannibalize or substitute for this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file.
DECISION NSN research lead in a depot whose parts master does not match DLA must choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold using scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN.
HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. Scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN supports Fund and move materiel for cost history can support if NSN research lead can match the same Depot Procurement Intelligence population in a depot whose parts master does not match DLA. 2. Scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN is closer to Cannibalize or substitute; calling Fund and move materiel would over-claim this Defense Sustainment extract. 3. Reconcile depot demand in scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN to fleet readiness and NSN coverage after a mission-ca is still a live third reading of scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN that NSN research lead has not closed. 4. Scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN does not yet name the fact cost history can support turns on, so NSN research lead should leave Defense Sustainment unresolved.
ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Reconcile depot demand in scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN to fleet readiness and NSN coverage after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN. 2. Trace the funding or cannibalization line that would actually move scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN. 3. Test whether the shortfall is materiel, maintenance posting, or a bad count. 4. For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN against a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN and write the one fact that would move cost history can support for NSN research lead.
RECOMMENDATION From scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN, choose Fund and move materiel when scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN itself shows the discriminator for cost history can support. NSN research lead in a depot whose parts master does not match DLA should implement that path on this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file and name the two facts in scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN that force it. If scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN cannot support Fund and move materiel versus Cannibalize or substitute, NSN research lead must do not move materiel or funding on a count the depot file cannot reconstruct.
