Proposed Uniform Reporting Specifications for Cooperative Logistics Supply Support Arrangements.
Abstract
A Cooperative Logistics Supply Support Arrangement (CLSSA) is a Foreign Military Sales instrument through which a foreign country customer may order secondary items--spare and repair parts--with the same priority given U.S. forces having similar missions and geographic location. Various reports and audits in recent years have suggested that DoD management of the CLSSA program can be improved. One continuing source of problems appears to be the lack of visibility of the program by the Office of the Secretary of Defense and by the Military Department Headquarters themselves. This report proposes specifications for uniform reporting to OASD(MRA&L) on CLSSAs by the Military Departments and the Defense Logistics Agency. The specifications describe two recurring reports containing historical CLASSA data needed by OASD(MRA&L) for a variety of its management functions. The Semi-Annual Report on Cooperative Logistics Supply Support Arrangements summarizes summarizes CLSSA activity, displays CLSSA support by defense system and country, and describes individual arrangements in three distinct formats. The Comparative Supply Support, Foreign Military Sales Secondary Items report is designed primarily to evaluate the supply performance given to CLSSAs are compared to other types of FMS and U.S. forces and resembles the DoD Military Supply and Transportation Evaluation Procedure (Format 2) report. These reporting specifications are presented as recommended enclosures to the proposed reissuance of DoD Instruction 2000.8, the primary DoD policy document on CLSSAs. (Author)
