Cost of Nonconforming Supplies Update.

Abstract

This report updates the 1989 study of the cost of nonconforming supplies. Nonconforming supplies are supplies whose defects prevent their use for their intended purpose. These nonconformances are documented on a Product Quality Deficiency Report (PQDR). Quantified components of nonconforming supplies costs were subdivided into administrative processing costs and material holding costs. These costs were computed not only for each DLA supply center but also, where possible, at the Federal Supply Group (FSC) and the Federal Supply Class (FSC) levels. The output of this study are costs formulae showing the administrative costs as a constant and the holding costs as a percent of the average contract value for each FSG or FSC at a supp!y center.
