Summary:
Because the U.S. Air Force does not have an effective way of allocating limited funding for depot-level repair across weapon systems and calculating the readiness implications of such allocations, this report describes a methodology, the Closed-Loop Planning System, that estimates the effect of depot repair funding allocations on aircraft availability.
Contents:
Introduction Current processes for planning depot repairs and the need for the closed-loop methodology Formulation of the depot repair planning problem Stepping through the solution to the optimization problem The prototype database and model for depot repair planning Extensions and next steps
Notes:
"This report documents several ways in which the Air Force can improve its management of logistics."
