Assess whether an alternate source is technically qualified (6ca118)

SITUATION The working file is NSN demand-and-backorder extract after a new source that has never made this form-fit-function. Repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources has to name Fund and move materiel or Cannibalize or substitute for this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file.

DECISION Repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources must choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold using NSN demand-and-backorder extract after a new source that has never made this form-fit-function.

HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. NSN demand-and-backorder extract reads as Fund and move materiel once a new source that has never made this form-fit-function is lined up to the same Defense Sustainment population. 2. NSN demand-and-backorder extract is closer to Cannibalize or substitute after a new source that has never made this form-fit-function; Fund and move materiel would over-claim this Depot Procurement Intelligence extract. 3. Defer a cycle is still live in NSN demand-and-backorder extract for repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources. 4. NSN demand-and-backorder extract is missing the fact repair-vs-buy decision support lead needs after a new source that has never made this form-fit-function; stop this Defense Sustainment close.

ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Quantify mission impact if an alternate source is is deferred one cycle in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources. 2. Reconcile depot demand in NSN demand-and-backorder extract to fleet readiness and NSN coverage after a new source that has never made this form-fit-function. 3. Trace the funding or cannibalization line that would actually move NSN demand-and-backorder extract. 4. For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read NSN demand-and-backorder extract against a new source that has never made this form-fit-function and write the one fact that would move an alternate source is for repair-vs-buy decision support lead.

RECOMMENDATION Choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold on this Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence packet (NSN demand-and-backorder extract after a new source that has never made this form-fit-function). Lead with the Defense Sustainment option NSN demand-and-backorder extract can support after a new source that has never made this form-fit-function, then the two facts that force it, then the Monday action for repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources.
