Annual Report - 1985.
Abstract
The Directorate of Management Science (AFLC/XRS) is comprised of three Divisions: the Assessment Applications Division (XRSA), the Concept Development Division (XRSC), and the Consultant Services Division (XRSM). We conduct and sponsor studies and research of significant logistics issues. We use, modify, and develop new or improved methods, models, and tools to manage logistics resources. We have developed outstanding capabilities in determining requirements for recoverable items (items that are repaired, as opposed to thrown away, when they fail), relating recoverable item assets to the number of aircraft available to accomplish the mission, and relating jet engine maintenance shop resources to aircraft availability. Our focus is on relating logistics resource alternatives to the peacetime readiness and wartime sustainability of the operating commands. In our scenario, the maintenance, distribution, and procurements systems exist only to provide serviceable Line Replaceable Uints (LRUs) to keep end items available. The amount of money we invest in the maintenance system, and how we choose to invest it, affect the base Repair Cycle Time, Depot Repair Cycle Time, and the fraction of repairs that can be accomplished at base level.
