Whether TDP is complete enough to compete the work from lead-time outlier

Situation

A TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract put lead-time outlier report in front of repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources. This Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence close is TDP is complete enough from lead-time outlier report, and the live options are Fund and move materiel, Cannibalize or substitute, Defer a cycle.

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 lead-time outlier report after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract.

Hypotheses to test

• Authorize Fund and move materiel now; lead-time outlier report already has the discriminator after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract.
• Keep Cannibalize or substitute in force until lead-time outlier report is completed after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract for repair-vs-buy decision support lead.
• Treat lead-time outlier report as Defer a cycle because both readings appear after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract.
• Refuse a Defense Sustainment close: repair-vs-buy decision support lead does not have the page TDP is complete enough turns on in lead-time outlier report.

Analysis required

• Compare on-hand, due-in, and condemned quantities in lead-time outlier report.
• Quantify mission impact if TDP is complete enough is deferred one cycle in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources.
• Reconcile depot demand in lead-time outlier report to fleet readiness and NSN coverage after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract.
• For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read lead-time outlier report against a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract and write the one fact that would move TDP is complete enough for repair-vs-buy decision support lead.

Recommendation

The actionable close on lead-time outlier report is Fund and move materiel if a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract left a complete Depot Procurement Intelligence trail; otherwise Cannibalize or substitute. Repair-vs-buy decision support lead should cite the specific line in lead-time outlier report that settles TDP is complete enough before anyone else acts in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources.
