Abstract

The authors provide a framework for an integrated Department of Defense (DoD) supply chain, associated policy recommendations, and a companion framework for management practices that will drive people to take actions aligned with this integrated supply chain approach. Building on the framework and policy recommendations, they identify opportunities to improve DoD supply chain efficiency and highlight several already being pursued by DoD.

Abstract

One of the more challenging goals in programming is to link Air Force budget program element investments to operationally relevant capability metrics, then to use these metrics to assess any risk incurred by a proposed program objective memorandum (POM). Previous RAND Project AIR FORCE work developed a set of metrics and framework of analysis for capabilities-based programming and assessment of risks of expeditionary combat support. Because of the success of that work, the RAND Corporation was asked to apply and to extend (as needed) this capabilities based approach to the depot maintenance business areas, specifically focusing on depot purchased equipment maintenance (DPEM) as a first step, and to do so with a methodology that is broadly applicable. DPEM comprises numerous depot-level maintenance and inspection activities on capital assets, as well as storage and other supporting activities that span numerous program elements, budget programs, and appropriations. It funds the bulk of the work done at the Air Force depots that does not involve the repair of spares or the work on modification programs. This report presents an analysis of how to better program for DPEM.

Abstract

"This book identifies the critical factors that shaped and influenced New Zealand's defence acquisition decision-making processes from the election of the Fourth Labour Government in 1984 and the subsequent ANZUS crisis, through to the 11 September 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States and the following 'war on terror'. It explores and analyses decision-making processes in relation to the ANZAC frigates, the military sealift ship HMNZS Charles Upham, the F-16 strike aircraft, the P-3C Orion maritime patrol aircraft upgrade, and the LAV IIIs."--Publisher's description.
