Abstract:

The initial provisioning of the F-18 aircraft by the prime contractor in lieu of by the Aviation Supply Office, Philadelphia, Pa., has been proposed. This thesis provides an analysis of the Provisioning Requirements Statement PRS prepared to contractually obligate the prime contractor to perform the provisioning. Externalities affecting the move towards contractor provisioning are discussed. The provisioning of the F-18 by the contractor is concurred with in principle, but it is recommended that the PRS be reviewed to ensure clarity and full understanding of specific PRS paragraphs as identified in the analysis.
