NSN research lead must resolve whether TDP is complete enough to compete

Situation

A condemnation cluster after a process change put alternate-source qualification packet in front of NSN research lead in a depot whose parts master does not match DLA. This Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence close is TDP is complete enough from alternate-source qualification packet, and the live options are Fund and move materiel, Cannibalize or substitute, Defer a cycle.

Decision

NSN research lead in a depot whose parts master does not match DLA must choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold using alternate-source qualification packet after a condemnation cluster after a process change.

Hypotheses to test

• Alternate-source qualification packet reads as Fund and move materiel once a condemnation cluster after a process change is lined up to the same Defense Sustainment population.
• Alternate-source qualification packet is closer to Cannibalize or substitute after a condemnation cluster after a process change; Fund and move materiel would over-claim this Depot Procurement Intelligence extract.
• Defer a cycle is still live in alternate-source qualification packet for NSN research lead in a depot whose parts master does not match DLA.
• Alternate-source qualification packet is missing the fact NSN research lead needs after a condemnation cluster after a process change; stop this Defense Sustainment close.

Analysis required

• Test whether the shortfall is materiel, maintenance posting, or a bad count.
• Compare on-hand, due-in, and condemned quantities in alternate-source qualification packet.
• Quantify mission impact if TDP is complete enough is deferred one cycle in a depot whose parts master does not match DLA.
• For this Defense Sustainment Depot Procurement Intelligence file, read alternate-source qualification packet against a condemnation cluster after a process change and write the one fact that would move TDP is complete enough for NSN research lead.

Recommendation

Choose Fund and move materiel / Cannibalize or substitute / Defer a cycle / Hold on this Defense Sustainment / Depot Procurement Intelligence packet (alternate-source qualification packet after a condemnation cluster after a process change). The follow-on Depot Procurement Intelligence action is what NSN research lead does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
