Description of Principles
Engineering Logistics CONOP
3.
The logistics system will be Configuration Based and
capable of providing visibility of all assets at all
levels.
(a)
A Configuration Based system provides timely and
accurate technical information about Configuration
Items (CI) and how they relate to other CI.
(b)
Visibility of all assets at all levels provides
information about the plans, physical population,
physical locations, condition of the assets, etc. for
facility, platform, equipment, and item management.
4.
The logistics system will be capable of driving out
variability. Where variability is appropriate, the
logistics system will be capable of managing it.
(a)
Driving out variability in equipment across the
fleet reduces support costs and improves logistics
support service. Variability in equipment increases
the need for technical information and resources (i.e.,
people, parts, facilities, suppliers, funds, training,
support equipment) necessary to maintain equipment.
(b)
Where variability is appropriate recognizes the need
to support nonstandard equipments that will be
introduced into the logistics system. The logistics
system will provide management capabilities to units
for self sustained support of nonstandard items.
5.
The logistics system will be capable of minimizing
system-wide Inventories.
