DMSMS Acquisition Guidelines: Implementing Parts Obsolescence Management Contractual Requirements

Abstract

These Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) acquisition guidelines compile the ideas and comments expressed by experienced program managers over the past few years at a variety of forums, meetings, and conferences. This Acquisition Guidelines document for DMSMS provides the program manager and the integrated product team (IPT) with suggested contractual language that could be used to prepare a request for proposal (RFP) or to modify an existing contract to include cost effective DMSMS practices. This document is an adjunct to and its use is complementary with the Resolution Cost Metrics for DMSMS, Program Managers Handbook-Common Practices to Mitigate the Risk of Obsolescence-and the resolution guides referenced therein.
