Development of Standard Spares Projection Factors

Abstract

This report documents the Air Force's attempt to update Systems Support Division (SSD) standard spares projection factors for estimating initial spares requirements for budgeting and funding purposes. The factors currently used can be found in AFLCR 67-7, Stock Fund Initial Spares Requirements. The report describes the need to update the factors to reflect initial provisioning for new weapon systems, and identifies some problems with data sources needed to develop commodity based factors. Finally, the report describes the need to examine demand-based approaches to computing initial spares.
