The Facilities logistics element is composed of a variety of planning activities, all of which are directed toward ensuring that all required permanent or semi-permanent operating and support facilities (for instance, training, field and depot maintenance, storage, operational, and testing) are available concurrently with system fielding.
The S-Series of ILS specifications is a common denominator for a set of specifications associated to different integrated logistics support aspects. [1] Originally developed by AECMA (French acronym for the Association Européenne des Constructeurs de Matériel Aeronautique, later ASD), the S-Series suite of ILS specifications is managed currently jointly by multinational teams from the ...
SX000i - International guide for the use of the S-Series of Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) specifications, is a specification developed jointly by a multinational team from the AeroSpace and Defence Industries Association of Europe (ASD) and Aerospace Industries Association (AIA). [1]
[2] [3] A more narrow definition of supply chain management is the "design, planning, execution, control, and monitoring of supply chain activities with the objective of creating net value, building a competitive infrastructure, leveraging worldwide logistics, synchronising supply with demand and measuring performance globally".
Design Interface (including HSI) is the integration of quantitative systems design characteristics with functional integrated product support elements. In this element of logistics, the systems design parameters drive product support resource requirements. Product support requirements are derived to ensure the system meets availability goals ...
Sustainment commanders and staffs visualize future operations, identify required support and start the process of acquiring the sustainment that best supports the operation. Responsiveness is the ability to react to changing requirements and respond to meet the needs to maintain support. Through responsive sustainment, commanders maintain ...
Performance-based logistics (PBL), also known as performance-based life-cycle product support, [1] is a defense acquisition strategy for cost-effective weapon system support which has been adopted in particular by the United States Department of Defense.
Logistics engineers work with complex mathematical models that consider elements such as mean time between failures (MTBF), mean time to failure (MTTF), mean time to repair (MTTR), failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), statistical distributions, queueing theory, and a host of other considerations. For example, if we want to produce a system ...
