This book was released on 1982 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the 'Carlucci Initiatives' is to improve readiness through designed-in reliability, maintainability, and supportability in system acquisition. The vehicle for incorporating supportability in design is ILS. There is a perception that programs continue to be structured to give top priority to cost, schedule, and performance objectives, at the expense of logistics concerns. The researchers developed a list of eight 'barriers' which possibly explain the lack of consideration given ILS. The purposes of the research were to: (1) determine the relative importance of the barriers as perceived by program managers and ILS managers, and (2) determine if the two groups perceived the significance of the barriers differently. From the results of interviews with 82 managers, the researchers found substantial uniformity in perceptions between groups on the significance of the barriers. The two groups agreed that the most significant barriers to ILS are inadequate definition of logistics design parameters, and subordination of logistics concerns to cost and schedule objectives.

Download or read book The Relationship Between Integrated Logistics Support ILS and Computer aided Acquisition and Logistics Support CALS written by Sun-yup Choi and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) is the disciplined and unified management of the technical logistics disciplines that plan and develop support for military forces. With the implementation of the ILS concept, there has been a remarkable progress; yet substantial problems were found that had to be addressed. In an effort to tackle such problems in the acquisition of weapon systems and logistics support, the United States Department of Defense formulated a new concept. Computer-aided Acquisition and Logistics Support (CALS) is an initiative to enable and accelerate the integration of digital information for major system acquisition, design, manufacture, and support. This thesis examines the relationship between Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) and Computer-aided Acquisition and Logistics Support (CALS) and proposes the better way of understanding of ILS and CALS concept for the future Korean Armed Forces Logistics Support and Acquisition.

This book was released on 1996-06-01 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis identifies the major factors faced by the Program Manager in developing and implementing the integrated logistics support plan (ILSP) for the U.S. Army's Special Operations Aircraft (SOA), the MH-60K and MH-47E. The SOA Program had many unique characteristics which made it a prime candidate for identification of major factors and development of lessons learned. Two of those unique characteristics are the facts that it was designated a nondevelopmental item (NDI) acquisition, and the fact that it is an extremely low density weapon system. Effective integrated logistics support (ILS) planing poses a challenge in 'normal' developmental programs. Ensuring that ILS is handled effectively in low density NDI acquisitions can be a significantly more difficult challenge for the acquisition professional. This thesis develops a case study of ILS in the unique environment of the SOA Program. It also analyzes four maintenance specific ILS elements in an attempt to identify major factors that significantly impacted the development and implementation of the SOA ILSP. From these major factors, numerous lessons learned are developed. Some of the more important lessons learned are that: Sustainment of low density weapon systems is far more complicated and expensive through separate small Program Management Offices than it is through existing Program Management Offices; The density of the weapon system being procured is one of the most important factors to consider when making key ILS decisions; and, Logistics Support Analysis tailoring and use are critical to establishing and implementing successful ILS in weapon systems. Study of the major factors and lessons learned presented in this thesis should improve the future development and implementation of ILSPs in Special Operations Aviation programcd6hd-i-(h9,Æ0IL\G92GD!GT=A1*G)!HC!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Integrated Logistic Support Implementation Guide for DOD Systems and Equipments is designed to assist program managers in government and industry in the implementation of that policy contained in DOD Directive 4100.35. in discussion of the application of the ILS concept to various types of acquisition, description of ILS techniques and the relationship of ILS to other disciplines, this guide facilitates improved communications between government and industry program managers, design, procurement, and financial managers, and between various agencies within the government. The guide is organized to make it useful for program managers involved in the detailed planning and management of logistic support, and at the same time to be a valuable reference source for the non-specialist who needs assistance on specific problems with respect to logistics support and its interfaces.

Download or read book Performance Based Logistics A Program Manager s Product Support Guide written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performance Based Logistics (PBL) is the preferred Department of Defense (DoD) product Support strategy to improve weapons system readiness by procuring performance, which capitalizes on integrated logistics chains and public/private partnerships. The cornerstone of PBL is the purchase of weapons system sustainment as an affordable, integrated package based on output measures such as weapons system availability, rather than input measures, such as parts and technical services. The Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) and /the Defense Planning Guidance (DPG) directed the application of PBL to new and legacy weapons systems. PBL Implementation is also mandated by DoD Directive 5000.1, The Defense Acquisition System, May 12, 2003. This guide is a tool for Program Managers (PMs) and Product Support Managers (PSMs) as they design product support strategies for new programs or major modifications, or as they re-engineer product support strategies for existing fielded systems. It presents a method for implementing a PBL product support strategy. PBL delineates outcome performance goals of systems, ensures that responsibilities are assigned, provides incentives for attaining these goals, and facilitates the overall life cycle management of system reliability, supportability, and total owner ship costs. It is an integrated acquisition and logistics process for providing weapons system capability.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) within DOD and the Air Force pays particular attention to the role of the Deputy Program Manager for Logistics (DPML). It describes four tasks which must be accomplished to achieve the two basic objectives of ILS: (1) Increased supportability of weapons through early consideration of logistics in design; and (2) More efficient logistics support through integrated management of the logistics elements during acquisition. It was determined that the tasks associated with the first objective were the responsibility of systems engineering whereas the tasks associated with the second objective were the responsibility of the DPML. Investigation of three current Air Force programs (F-15, A-10, and F-16) supports the contention that the first objective was the responsibility of systems engineering but did not support the contention that the DPML was responsible for integrated management of logistic resource acquisition. The author concludes that Air Force policy concerning the objectives of ILS and the role and responsibilities of the DPML is inadequate and that AFR 800-8 and AFSCR/AFLCR 400-10 should be rewritten. He also recommendes that the role of the AFLC DCS/Acquisition Logistics be reevaluated with regard to the second objective of ILS.
