SITUATION UCAs older than the local policy cap put repair-history file that will not tie to cost in front of repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources. This Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence decision is the contract vehicle is from repair-history file that will not tie to cost, 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 repair-history file that will not tie to cost after UCAs older than the local policy cap.
HYPOTHESES TO TEST 1. Authorize Fund and move materiel now; repair-history file that will not tie to cost already has the discriminator after UCAs older than the local policy cap. 2. Keep Cannibalize or substitute in force until repair-history file that will not tie to cost is completed after UCAs older than the local policy cap for repair-vs-buy decision support lead. 3. Treat repair-history file that will not tie to cost as Defer a cycle because both readings appear after UCAs older than the local policy cap. 4. Refuse a Defense Sustainment close: repair-vs-buy decision support lead does not have the decision the contract vehicle is turns on in repair-history file that will not tie to cost.
ANALYSIS REQUIRED 1. Test whether the shortfall is materiel, maintenance posting, or a bad count. 2. Compare on-hand, due-in, and condemned quantities in repair-history file that will not tie to cost. 3. Quantify mission impact if the contract vehicle is is deferred one cycle in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources. 4. For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read repair-history file that will not tie to cost against UCAs older than the local policy cap and write the one fact that would move the contract vehicle is 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 (repair-history file that will not tie to cost after UCAs older than the local policy cap). Lead with the Defense Sustainment option repair-history file that will not tie to cost can support after UCAs older than the local policy cap, then the two facts that force it, then the Monday action for repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources.
COMMAND RETURNS - Bottom-line Defense Sustainment option on the contract vehicle is, then the evidence in repair-history file that will not tie to cost, then the action for repair-vs-buy decision support lead - Hypothesis scorecard against repair-history file that will not tie to cost: supported / rejected / untestable - Named option among Fund and move materiel, Cannibalize or substitute, Defer a cycle and the fact that kills the others - Owner and next date for repair-vs-buy decision support lead in an engineering support activity reviewing alternate sources
