Assess whether an alternate source is technically qualified (3ba545)

SITUATION An ALC working a shortage on a high-demand NSN cannot treat a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract as incidental context on depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers. Depot procurement-intelligence analyst must close an alternate source is from that extract under Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence.

DECISION Depot procurement-intelligence analyst in an ALC working a shortage on a high-demand NSN must choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold using depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract.

HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. A TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract is noise around an already-controlled Depot Procurement Intelligence process in an ALC working a shortage on a high-demand NSN, given depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers. 2. A TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract is the event in depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers that forces Fund and move materiel for depot procurement-intelligence analyst under Defense Sustainment. 3. Depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers shows a one-file miss after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract, not a Depot Procurement Intelligence program failure. 4. Depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers cannot decide an alternate source is yet after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract; hold is the only Defense Sustainment close an ALC working a shortage on a high-demand NSN can defend.

ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Compare on-hand, due-in, and condemned quantities in depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers. 2. Quantify mission impact if an alternate source is is deferred one cycle in an ALC working a shortage on a high-demand NSN. 3. Reconcile depot demand in depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers to fleet readiness and NSN coverage after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract. 4. For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers against a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract and write the one fact that would move an alternate source is for depot procurement-intelligence analyst.

RECOMMENDATION Choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold on this Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence packet (depot transaction file with duplicate document numbers after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract). The follow-on Depot Procurement Intelligence action is what depot procurement-intelligence analyst does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
