National Training Center Prepositioned Equipment (NTCPE) Study.

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to conduct a cost analysis to compare the cost of prepositioning M1A1 tanks, Bradley Fighting Vehicles (BFVs), and combat support/combat service support (CS/CSS) equipment at the National Training Center (NTC) versus transporting from home station. The current plan for tanks, BFVs, and CS/CSS equipment was reviewed for FY 88-91. Cost estimates for the current plan and alternatives to the current plan were developed. Potential cost savings ant training benefits with respect to transporting or prepositioning M1A1s, BFVs, and CS/CSS equipment were identified.
