Assess whether unpriced actions should be stopped

SITUATION Repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources has one working extract — lead-time outlier report — after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract. If lead-time outlier report cannot support unpriced actions should be stopped, the only defensible 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 lead-time outlier report after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract.

HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. Repair-vs-buy decision support lead can defend Fund and move materiel from lead-time outlier report after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract in a Defense Sustainment challenge. 2. Repair-vs-buy decision support lead cannot defend Fund and move materiel from lead-time outlier report; Cannibalize or substitute is what the extract actually supports after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract. 3. A TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract never reached the population in lead-time outlier report — reopen intake, do not close unpriced actions should be stopped. 4. Two facts in lead-time outlier report after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract conflict for repair-vs-buy decision support lead; hold this Depot Procurement Intelligence file.

ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Compare on-hand, due-in, and condemned quantities in lead-time outlier report. 2. Quantify mission impact if unpriced actions should be stopped is deferred one cycle in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources. 3. 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. 4. 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 unpriced actions should be stopped 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 (lead-time outlier report after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract). If lead-time outlier report cannot force a Defense Sustainment label under Depot Procurement Intelligence, stop. Do not invent missing evidence an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources does not have.

COMMAND RETURNS - Bottom-line Defense Sustainment option on unpriced actions should be stopped, then the evidence in lead-time outlier report, then the action for repair-vs-buy decision support lead - Hypothesis scorecard against lead-time outlier report: supported / rejected / untestable - Depot Procurement Intelligence finding in lead-time outlier report that a second reviewer can re-perform - Missing page in lead-time outlier report after a TDP that is marked incomplete but still on contract, if any
