Modifications of the Standard Base Supply System Stock Leveling Techniques.

Abstract

This report identifies recommended changes to the Air Force's Standard Base Supply System (SBSS) necessitated by DOD Directive 4140.44, Supply Management of the Intermediate and Consumer Levels of Inventory and the supporting Instruction 4140.45, Standard Stockage Policy for Consumable Items at the Intermediate and Consumer Levels of Inventory. Standardized measures of supply performace are identified along with applicable goals where practical. Current range of stock leveling methodology is identified for replacement by range of stock computations that consider economics of operation as well as demand history. Also, changes to the current depth of stock computations are suggested. The impact of these changes to current leveling computations are suggested. The impact of these changes to current leveling computations on SBSS performance were evaluated through the use of the simulation technique. (Author)
