Assess whether an alternate source is technically qualified (be2c38)

SITUATION Hill AF logistics data reviewer in a program office facing a diminishing-manufacturing source has one working extract — technical-data-package completeness checklist — after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x. If technical-data-package completeness checklist cannot support an alternate source is, the only defensible Defense Sustainment output is hold.

DECISION Hill AF logistics data reviewer in a program office facing a diminishing-manufacturing source must choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold using technical-data-package completeness checklist after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x.

HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. Technical-data-package completeness checklist reads as Fund and move materiel once a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x is lined up to the same Defense Sustainment population. 2. Technical-data-package completeness checklist is closer to Cannibalize or substitute after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x; Fund and move materiel would over-claim this Depot Procurement Intelligence extract. 3. Defer a cycle is still live in technical-data-package completeness checklist for Hill AF logistics data reviewer in a program office facing a diminishing-manufacturing source. 4. Technical-data-package completeness checklist is missing the fact Hill AF logistics data reviewer needs after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x; stop this Defense Sustainment close.

ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Quantify mission impact if an alternate source is is deferred one cycle in a program office facing a diminishing-manufacturing source. 2. Reconcile depot demand in technical-data-package completeness checklist to fleet readiness and NSN coverage after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x. 3. Trace the funding or cannibalization line that would actually move technical-data-package completeness checklist. 4. For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read technical-data-package completeness checklist against a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x and write the one fact that would move an alternate source is for Hill AF logistics data reviewer.

RECOMMENDATION Choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold on this Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence packet (technical-data-package completeness checklist after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x). If technical-data-package completeness checklist cannot force a Defense Sustainment label under Depot Procurement Intelligence, stop. Do not invent missing evidence a program office facing a diminishing-manufacturing source does not have.
