Toward enhanced integration of naval aviation logistics

John Abell

Published 1983

This Note addresses the Navy's need for enhanced integration across support resource planning, programming, budgeting, budget execution, and day-to-day management. It discusses the need to focus decisionmaking at each stage on readiness, sustainability, and costs. It outlines three research tasks to be undertaken by RAND: (1) demonstration of a method of incorporating an aircraft availability objective function in aviation spares requirements computations, (2) implementation of an aggregate-level estimating techniques to relate resource requirements and capability goals to program variables, and (3) initiation of first steps toward systemwide oversight through capability assessment techniques.
