Cost History Can Support a Fair-and-reasonable Call

Situation

In an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources, alternate-source qualification packet is the evidence after lead times that doubled after a data-migration. Repair-vs-buy decision support lead has to pick Fund and move materiel or Cannibalize or substitute for this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence close using alternate-source qualification packet.

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 alternate-source qualification packet after lead times that doubled after a data-migration.

Hypotheses to test

• Alternate-source qualification packet reads as Fund and move materiel once lead times that doubled after a data-migration is lined up to the same Defense Sustainment population.
• Alternate-source qualification packet is closer to Cannibalize or substitute after lead times that doubled after a data-migration; Fund and move materiel would over-claim this Depot Procurement Intelligence extract.
• Defer a cycle is still live in alternate-source qualification packet for repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources.
• Alternate-source qualification packet is missing the fact repair-vs-buy decision support lead needs after lead times that doubled after a data-migration; stop this Defense Sustainment close.

Analysis required

• Compare on-hand, due-in, and condemned quantities in alternate-source qualification packet.
• Quantify mission impact if cost history can support is deferred one cycle in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources.
• Reconcile depot demand in alternate-source qualification packet to fleet readiness and NSN coverage after lead times that doubled after a data-migration.
• For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read alternate-source qualification packet against lead times that doubled after a data-migration and write the one fact that would move cost history can support 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 (alternate-source qualification packet after lead times that doubled after a data-migration). If alternate-source qualification packet cannot force a Defense Sustainment label under Depot Procurement Intelligence, stop. Do not invent pages an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources does not have.
