National Stock Number Level Issue and Stockage Effectiveness Data Collection.
Abstract
HQ AFMC uses issue and stockage effectiveness as a measure of their support to retail supply accounts. Currently, AFMC uses the Standard Base Supply System (SBSS) Management Effectiveness Report (M32) as the source for issue and stockage effectiveness. The M32 provides issue and stockage effectiveness at base level in several ways: by Expendability, Recoverability, Reparability, Cost Designator (ERRCD); by depot; and by weapon system. HQ AFMC believes issue and stockage effectiveness by stock number is a useful indicator of AFMC support to retail activities. However, since the SBSS does not currently provide issue and stockage effectiveness by stock number, AFMC does not have the data it needs to identify those stock numbers that contribute to the Air Force-wide decline in issue and stockage effectiveness. AFMC believes issue and stockage effectiveness by stock number would allow AFMC supply managers to focus attention on those assets that are not meeting established Air Force issue and stockage effectiveness goals. In October 1998, AFMC sent out some "feelers" on if and how this metric could be obtained. In their search for someone to collect the data for and compute this new metric, AFMC inquired about the AFLMA's ability to perform this type of work. AFLMA/LGS responded that the Agency could provide this service as a "proof of concept" that the data for this metric could be economically collected and the metric could be computed.
