Book excerpt: AGMC was closed as a result of a 1993 decision of the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission. In recommending the closure of the Newark Air Force Base/AGMC, the Commission noted that the workload could be privatized or moved to other depot maintenance activities. The BRAC recommendation states the Aerospace Guidance and Metrology center (AGMC) depot will be closed; some workload will move to other depot maintenance activities including the private sector. After the BRAC recommendation to close AGMC was finalized, (1) the Air Force moved a small portion of AGMC's Air Force workload to other Air Force depots, (2) the Navy moved most of its AGMC workload to other sites, and (3) the Army moved all of its AGMC workload to other sites. The Air Force decided to privatize in place the remaining AGMC workloads. At the time it made this decision, the Air Force relied on an analysis that estimated privatizing would save about $5 million in 1997. However, the preaward analysis was not documented and Air Force officials do not know the basis for the costs included. Consequently, the Air Force was not able to reconcile its current interim study to its precontract award analysis.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Air Force F-22 Raptor is an air superiority aircraft being developed to replace F-15 fighter aircraft. Lockheed Martin Corporation and Pratt & Whitney Corporation are the contractors for the airframe and engine, respectively. Development, which started in 1991, is scheduled to be completed in August 2003. The Air Force plans to enter low-rate initial production in December 2000. Projections of higher production costs have been a source of concern for several years. In 1996, because of potential cost increases, the Air Force established a team-known as the Joint Estimating Team-to review the total estimated cost of the F-22 program. The team concluded that the cost of production could grow substantially from the amounts planned, but that cost reduction initiatives could be implemented to offset that cost growth. The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics generally adopted the team's recommendations to change certain aspects of the program as well as a plan to define and implement cost reduction initiatives. F-22 production costs were also discussed in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998 (P.L. 105-85, Nov. 18, 1997). That act limited the total cost of F-22 production but did not specify the total number of aircraft to be procured. The most recent production costs estimates were completed by the Air Force and the Office of the Secretary of Defense in late 1999. The Air Force's estimate of $40.8 billion and the Office of the Secretary's estimate of $48.6 billion both considered the potential impact of cost reduction initiatives known as production cost reduction plans. The airframe and engine contractors had identified about 1,240 of these plans-totaling $21 billion-in participation with the Air Force's F-22 program office. The Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics reviews the status of the F-22 program quarterly, including its cost and affordability.

Download or read book Estimating Aircraft Depot Maintenance Costs written by Kenneth E. Marks and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 1981-01-01 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes a series of parametric equations for use in estimating the depot maintenance cost of new Air Force aircraft, particularly for the five major maintenance categories: airframe rework, engine overhaul, airframe component repair, engine component and accessory repair, and avionics component repair. The equations are intended to provide cost estimates for Defense Systems Acquisition Review Council Milestone II, at which point some design details of major aircraft subsystems (airframe, engine, avionics) are available. The report presents a single set of equations that are the most representative and applicable to the widest range of estimating situations, but presents alternative equations and supporting data and analyses for use by the interested reader.
