Focusing Planning for Supply Management: Objectives, Policies, Oversight and Review, Supplement
Abstract
This report is a Supplement to the October 1987 report Improving Shipboard Management in the coast Guard. That report presented recommendations on supply management responsibilities, operations, and organization aboard ship. The authors also recommended organizational and functional changes in the shoreside support structure for centralized supply management and integrated supply, maintenance, and procurement. In this Supplement they assess Headquarters-level objectives and policies and oversight and review measures. They present additional recommendations that address supply system management issues. The Supplement is presented in four Parts: Part I is an overview; Part II proposes a response-oriented planning discipline as the basis for a Coast Guard logistics objective and related policies; Part III provides basic material availability and materiel response time measures of supply performance to use in oversight and review of supply effectiveness; and Part IV adds objectives and policies recommendations to those we made on manpower and training in the basic report. For a complete and thorough understanding of this Supplement, we recommend that the reader first read the basic report.
