Methodology to Determine Support and Sustainability Implications of Increased POMCUS Levels (SSIPL).

Abstract

This CAA (MOCA-FD) study developed and demonstrated a model, the Balanced Force Model (BALFOR) which assesses force performance implications of a change in the POMCUS issue rates, the maintenance return rates, and the prepositioned war reserve materiel stocks (PWRMS) issue rates as they affect the committed tank force. Analysis identified areas where changes in resource allocation among support functions will improve force performance. The report described the methodology with examples and contains a user and programer guide, and documentation of the BALFOR Model. (Author)
