Assess whether TDP is complete enough to compete the work from DMSMS alert
August 31, 2026
SITUATION Vendor-base mapper in a sustainment cell after a failed repair turnaround has one working extract — DMSMS alert vs. current stock position — after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x. If DMSMS alert vs. current stock position cannot support TDP is complete enough, the only defensible Defense Sustainment output is hold.
DECISION Vendor-base mapper in a sustainment cell after a failed repair turnaround must choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold using DMSMS alert vs. current stock position after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x.
HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. DMSMS alert vs. current stock position 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. DMSMS alert vs. current stock position 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 DMSMS alert vs. current stock position for vendor-base mapper in a sustainment cell after a failed repair turnaround. 4. DMSMS alert vs. current stock position is missing the fact vendor-base mapper needs after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x; stop this Defense Sustainment close.
ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Reconcile depot demand in DMSMS alert vs. current stock position to fleet readiness and NSN coverage after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x. 2. Trace the funding or cannibalization line that would actually move DMSMS alert vs. current stock position. 3. Test whether the shortfall is materiel, maintenance posting, or a bad count. 4. For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read DMSMS alert vs. current stock position against a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x and write the one fact that would move TDP is complete enough for vendor-base mapper.
RECOMMENDATION Vendor-base mapper owns TDP is complete enough on DMSMS alert vs. current stock position in a sustainment cell after a failed repair turnaround. After a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x, choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold using only what this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence packet proves. If DMSMS alert vs. current stock position is silent on the discriminator after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x, vendor-base mapper must do not move materiel or funding on a count the depot file cannot reconstruct rather than reuse a label from another Depot Procurement Intelligence packet.
COMMAND RETURNS - Bottom-line Defense Sustainment option on TDP is complete enough, then the evidence in DMSMS alert vs. current stock position, then the action for vendor-base mapper - Hypothesis scorecard against DMSMS alert vs. current stock position: supported / rejected / untestable - Depot Procurement Intelligence finding in DMSMS alert vs. current stock position that a second reviewer can re-perform - Missing page in DMSMS alert vs. current stock position after a repair cost that exceeds replacement by 3x, if any
