Repairable Item Inventory Management for the Korean Air Force.

Abstract

The Korean Air Force has determined that repairables management is one of the areas to which attention could be expected to lead to substantial improvement in the efficient management of defense resources and in maintaining adequate level of force effectiveness. This thesis reviews various inventory models for the management of repairable items. It discusses the characteristics of each model, and, identifies and explains the differences in each model with respect to assumptions, objectives, constraints, and optimization methods. Each model was compared to the existing system for managing repairables for the Korean Air Force to determine the most appropriate models.
