Applicability Analysis of Performance Based Logistics Implementation for the U.S. Army Stryker Armored Vehicle to Improve Turkish Army Weapon System Support

Abstract

This research examines the total life cycle logistics system and performance based logistics (PBL) implementation. This report looks into the application of Defense Acquisition University's 12-step PBL implementation model defined in Performance Based Logistics: A Program Manager's Product Support Guide(March 2005) for the Stryker Light Armored Vehicle (LAV) support. The research consists of a literature review of the Total Life Cycle System Management, Supply Chain Management concepts and performance based logistics. It is followed by a comparative analysis of PBL application between Stryker Light Armored Vehicle (LAV) Program and Turkish Army's advanced Armored Combat Vehicle (ACV) program support practices. This research provides recommendations to improve Turkish Army s weapon system support, and maintainability based on findings and introduces potentials through implementation of PBL practices for the Turkish Army.
