Assess whether TDP is complete enough to compete the work (e69d0a)

SITUATION DLA item manager's data counterpart in a contracting shop mapping vendors from file-first data has one working extract — repair-history file that will not tie to cost — after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item. If repair-history file that will not tie to cost cannot support TDP is complete enough, the only defensible Defense Sustainment output is hold.

DECISION DLA item manager's data counterpart in a contracting shop mapping vendors from file-first data must choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold using repair-history file that will not tie to cost after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item.

HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. DLA item manager's data counterpart owns TDP is complete enough on repair-history file that will not tie to cost: take Fund and move materiel when a BPA used for what looks like a major end item left a reconstructable Depot Procurement Intelligence trail in a contracting shop mapping vendors from file-first data. 2. Take Cannibalize or substitute when repair-history file that will not tie to cost after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item cannot reconstruct that Depot Procurement Intelligence trail. 3. Repair-history file that will not tie to cost after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item is a cutoff or timing miss in a contracting shop mapping vendors from file-first data, not Fund and move materiel. 4. Do not close TDP is complete enough from repair-history file that will not tie to cost while the Defense Sustainment fact DLA item manager's data counterpart would cite is still absent.

ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Reconcile depot demand in repair-history file that will not tie to cost to fleet readiness and NSN coverage after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item. 2. Trace the funding or cannibalization line that would actually move repair-history file that will not tie to cost. 3. Test whether the shortfall is materiel, maintenance posting, or a bad count. 4. For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read repair-history file that will not tie to cost against a BPA used for what looks like a major end item and write the one fact that would move TDP is complete enough for DLA item manager's data counterpart.

RECOMMENDATION Choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold on this Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence packet (repair-history file that will not tie to cost after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item). The follow-on Depot Procurement Intelligence action is what DLA item manager's data counterpart does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
