Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) Fundamentals
Abstract
A DMSMS Management Plan (DMP) documents the foundations of a DMSMS management approach established by program office leadership and identifies the risks associated with deviations from the standard DMSMS management processes described in this document. As such, the DMP establishes a robust DMSMS management framework for a program office. Without an adequate plan, a program office cannot have effective DMSMS management. Developing a DMP requires detailed consideration of how DMSMS management principles should be integrated within the program offices mission. The DMP also describes the DMSMS management team and its duties within a set of tailored DMSMS management processes ideally designed to avoid miscommunication. The tailoring is a function of each program offices specific infrastructure, record keeping procedures, quality management plans, resources, priorities, and constraints (e.g., the number of people, the amount of funding, access to bills of material/parts lists and associated technical data, and the ability to conduct vendor surveys on item availability). This presentation is training on the development of a DMP.
