SITUATION Repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources has one working extract — scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN — after UCAs older than the local policy cap. If scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN cannot support the contract vehicle is, the only defensible Defense Sustainment output is hold.
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 scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN after UCAs older than the local policy cap.
HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. Repair-vs-buy decision support lead can defend Fund and move materiel from scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN after UCAs older than the local policy cap in a Defense Sustainment challenge. 2. Repair-vs-buy decision support lead cannot defend Fund and move materiel from scrap-and-condemnation spike on one NSN; Cannibalize or substitute is what the extract actually supports after UCAs older than the local policy cap. 3.
