Assess whether TDP is complete enough to compete the work (891715)

Situation

Repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources has one working extract — technical-data-package completeness checklist — after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item. If technical-data-package completeness checklist cannot support TDP is complete enough, the honest 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 technical-data-package completeness checklist after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item.

Hypotheses to test

• Repair-vs-buy decision support lead can defend Fund and move materiel from technical-data-package completeness checklist after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item in a Defense Sustainment challenge.
• Repair-vs-buy decision support lead cannot defend Fund and move materiel from technical-data-package completeness checklist; Cannibalize or substitute is what the extract actually supports after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item.
• A BPA used for what looks like a major end item never reached the population in technical-data-package completeness checklist — reopen intake, do not close TDP is complete enough.
• Two facts in technical-data-package completeness checklist after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item conflict for repair-vs-buy decision support lead; hold this Depot Procurement Intelligence file.

Analysis required

• Trace the funding or cannibalization line that would actually move technical-data-package completeness checklist.
• Test whether the shortfall is materiel, maintenance posting, or a bad count.
• Compare on-hand, due-in, and condemned quantities in technical-data-package completeness checklist.
• For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read technical-data-package completeness checklist 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 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 (technical-data-package completeness checklist after a BPA used for what looks like a major end item). If technical-data-package completeness checklist 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.
