Air Force Logistics Command Materiel Analysis Extended Year Estimate
Abstract
In a previous HQ AFLC/MMMA report Stock Fund Stratification, we evaluated the current stock fund stratification methodology. As a result, we recommended an additional year of inventory be added to the current Approved Force Acquisition Objective (AFAO). The additional year is called the Extended Year (EY). However, the current consumable item (D062) Central Secondary Item Stratification (CSIS) does not stratify the extended year. So, AFLC needs a way to estimate the Extended Year and identify its effect on the AFAO. To determine the impact the extended year will have on the AFAO, we developed a FORTRAN program to simulate the D062 CSIS. Our program computes requirements and stratifies assets just as the current CSIS does, except our program includes the Extended Year. We ran our program using the entire population of actual D062 data from each of the five Air Logistic Centers. We then matched our results to the actual CSIS for validation. As a result of our analysis, the AFAO requirement will be increased by approximately 20 percent. This translated into a 16 percent reduction of inapplicable inventory totals. Using FY86 CSIS figures, that means $251.5 million of on-hand inventory would stratify in the EY as applicable inventory.
