Detailed Calculation of Ammunition, Petroleum, and Equipment Requirements (CALAPER) Briefing (DCB): Description of Process.

Abstract

This project was developed as an in house analysis for the purpose of providing a detailed description of the Agency's process for computing munitions and fuel consumption and losses of major end items (MEI) of equipment in a theater level campaign. This process is used in the biennial study called Wartime Requirements (WARREQ) that is used to support headquarters, Department of the Army, in their Program Objective Memorandum (POM) determination for war reserve materiel requirements. Book 1 of this analysis includes a detailed scripted briefing of the CALAPER process. A follow on analysis, book 2, will illustrate the process from start to finish using selected weapon systems and their associated munitions.
