Performance Metrics for Defense Working Capital Funds. A Focus on Supply Management

Abstract

Many Department of Defense (DoD) support organizations are financed with revolving funds to take advantage of the flexibility offered by them. DoD is interested in developing performance metrics applicable to program analysis of defense support business areas. Key indicators geared to assist Inventory Control Points and senior DoD officials evaluate the overall performance of the Supply Management Business. This report, the second in a series focusing on the Defense Working Capital Fund (DWCF), explores the Supply Management Business Area. Using the Balanced Scorecard, this report identifies 19 metrics and evaluates the potential for near-term implementation at the DoD Inventory Control Points. A major consideration in this analysis was data availability and minimizing the new data requirements. An in-depth discussion has been provided in the appendix describing the data availability and data manipulation requirements to implement the metrics.
