Impact of Implementing of Dyna-METRIC to Compute War Readiness Spares Kit Requirements (WRSK)

Abstract

The Air Force approved Dyna-METRIC to Compute War Readiness Spares Kit (WRSK) requirements. We implemented Dyna-METRIC in the Weapon System Management Information System Requirements Execution Availability Logistics Module (WSMIS/REALM). Dyna-METRIC computes leaner, cheaper requirements than the previous system (DO29). The F-15, F-16, F-111 were the first weapon systems to use the new computation. Our analysis shows Dyna-METRIC reduced generic WRSK requirements for these weapon systems by more than 210 million. Dyna-METRIC was able to reduce requirements from the previous system because Dyna-METRIC considers indenture relationships and maximizes aircraft availability. By considering the indenture structure, Dyna-METRIC accurately models the impact of Shop Replaceable Unit (SRU) availability on the Line Replaceable Units (LRUs).
