Allowable Maintenance Inventory Center Credit Returns to the System Support Division Stock Fund
Abstract
The Depot Maintenance Industrial Fund (DMIF) is short funds. Estimates of the shortage range from $127 to $207 million. One of the proposals to provide funds to the DMIF is to turn in Maintenance Inventory Center (MIC) assets for credit. In this report, we examine five different policies for granting credit returns for MIC assets. Our report only examines Systems Support Division (SSD) stock fund items. Under current credit return policy, up to $46.6 million of credit turn-ins can be granted to Maintenance. We can increase the credit return dollar figure to $60.3 million by allowing credit for itmes up to the new extended Air Force Acquisition Objective (AFAO). We recommend credit be given for all materiel turned in up to the new AFAO (requirement level plus three years of stock) and do not consider on-order assets as on-hand. This new credit return policy will help the DMIF problem and match credit return policy with requirements policy.
