August 31, 2026
SITUATION BOM that still lists a cancelled spec arrived with a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN for repair-vs-buy decision support lead. That is a Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence decision on the contract vehicle is in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources.
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 BOM that still lists a cancelled spec after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN.
HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. Repair-vs-buy decision support lead can defend Fund and move materiel from BOM that still lists a cancelled spec after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN if a Defense Sustainment challenge asks for the Depot Procurement Intelligence trail. 2. Repair-vs-buy decision support lead cannot defend Fund and move materiel from BOM that still lists a cancelled spec; Cannibalize or substitute is what the extract actually supports after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN. 3. A mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN never reached the population in BOM that still lists a cancelled spec, so reopen intake instead of closing the contract vehicle is. 4. Two facts in BOM that still lists a cancelled spec after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN conflict for repair-vs-buy decision support lead; keep this Depot Procurement Intelligence file on Hold.
ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Reconcile depot demand in BOM that still lists a cancelled spec 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 BOM that still lists a cancelled spec. 3. Test whether the shortfall is materiel, maintenance posting, or a bad count. 4. For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read BOM that still lists a cancelled spec against a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN and write the one fact that would move the contract vehicle is for repair-vs-buy decision support lead.
