A Guide for the AFLC Program Manager of Major Production Class IV and V Modifications.

Abstract

Air Force Logistics Command (AFLC) is the Air Force's Mod Manager. The size, complexity, and production duration of some Class IV and V major modification programs requires program management similar to that required in the acquisition of a major new weapon system. AFLC's organization, and thus directives and policies, are structured to manage modifications that fit the TCTO 'kit' mold. A major production modification does not fit the 'kit' mold. This AFLC Program Manager's guide bridges the gap between kit and major new weapon system management by describing the Mod proposal and approval process, by identifying DOD directives and policies that affect Mod management, and by providing 'lessons learned' from past and present major production modifications.
