Abstract:

This is an Addendum to the DSB report on Depot Maintenance Management,- dated April 1994. The original report was in response to the 1994 National Defense Authorization Act, specifically, nine Congressional taskings. This Addendum addresses two tasks not requested by Congress. The Addendum focuses on ways to make depot maintenance operations more efficient and on the need for and effectiveness of the transition of initial depot maintenance support from commercial sector sources to organic depot facilities. The basic recommendation endorses using an acquisition Decision Tree Process to allocate workload between Government and private facilities. However, changes to DOD directives are needed to incorporate the CORE concept and revised competition policy.
