LOGAM (Logistic Analysis Model). Volume 1. Executive Summary

Abstract

This executive summary describes the Logistic Analysis Model (LOGAM) and its use for evaluating logistic operations as applied to US Army materiel systems. The objective is to develop methodology for generating quantitative data for analysis of activities necessary to equip, operate, maintain, and support a materiel system. LOGAM is a deterministic model, analytical in design through its sensitivity feature, and highly versatile in its ability to evaluate many alternatives rapidly and inexpensively. Through the sensitivity median, support alternatives are tested for evaluating life cycle costs and for recommending optimum repair levels; repair versus discard at failure; manpower, provisioning and test equipment requirements; table of organization and equipment adjustment or development; and other operational elements by quantities and costs.
