Hypotheses to test

• The population in vendor CAGE-to-item crosswalk with holes is the one a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN named, so Fund and move materiel follows for this Depot Procurement Intelligence file.
• The population in vendor CAGE-to-item crosswalk with holes is adjacent only to a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN; Cannibalize or substitute is the honest Defense Sustainment call.
• A program office facing a diminishing-manufacturing source already contained a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN before vendor CAGE-to-item crosswalk with holes arrived; no new Depot Procurement Intelligence path.
• Provenance on vendor CAGE-to-item crosswalk with holes after a mission-capable rate drop tied to one NSN is broken; do not pick Fund and move materiel or Cannibalize or substitute yet.
