Performance Based Logistics (PBL) Exam1 with Complete Solution

Document Content and Description Below

Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS) - ANSWER An effective Performance Based Logistics implementation begins in the Joint capabilities Integration and Development System {JCID... S} process. It focuses on providing needed warfighter capabilities based on overall mission performance and attendant supportability requirements. The term "capabilities" encompasses not only performance, but support as well. Integrate Requirements and Support - ANSWER The Program Management (PM) team consults with the materiel and using commands and organizations that support the warfighting operational commanders. Integrate Requirements and Support - ANSWER The warfighters' mission requirements are translated into performance and product support metrics that are documented in Product Support Arrangements and serve as the primary measures of support provider effectiveness. Each key performance parameter has a threshold value and an objective value of performance. - ANSWER The threshold value is the minimum acceptable Threshold Objective value that, in the user's judgment, is necessary to satisfy the need. If threshold values are not achieved, the program may be terminated. Each key performance parameter has a threshold value and an objective value of performance. - ANSWER The objective value specifies the performance level desired by the user. This is the level that the PM attempts to obtain. The objective value represents an operationally meaningful, time critical, and cost effective increment above the threshold. Warfighter Requirements - ANSWER Performance outcomes and metrics should be based on the requirements of warfighters at their point of need. The point of need is the place and time a warfighting component (whether a soldier, equipment, or weapon system) needs to be ready. You are the PSM for MetroScout , a new, urban, 3-D reconnaissance system. How will you and your team develop the PBL performance and support metrics that the MetroScout's support provider will be expected to meet? - ANSWER You will translate the warfighter's mission requirements into performance and support metrics that will be included in the long term support agreement with the support provider. The critical first step of the Performance Based Logistics implementation model is to: - ANSWER Translate the warfighter's mission requirements into the support provider's performance and support metrics. Flexible Product Support Arrangements - ANSWER The warfighter and PSM need a versatile PBL product support strategy that can respond to increasingly demanding tiers of support, from basic peacetime training to wartime surge. To achieve the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions, PBL product support strategies should be implemented via arrangements that specify a range of performance outcomes and corresponding metrics. Product Support Arrangements should document: - ANSWER •Expectations of the Warfighter •Roles and responsibilities of the major stakeholders (e.g., the Product Support Manager, the Warfighter, Force Providers, Product Support Integrator (PSI) and/or Product Support Provider(s)) •The range of support requirements Mission Effectiveness - ANSWER Associated with operational mission effectiveness objectives is the concept of reducing the cycle time between the identification of a requirement and the delivery of materiel or services. The logistics process has many cycles, e.g., procurement, maintenance, and transportation. Intermediate cycle times have differing importance and duration. The evaluation of time and resources allocated to an intermediate cycle is based on its contribution in satisfying a requirement in the most efficient manner. Examples include: - ANSWER •Procurement lead-time •Repair turn-around time •Mean time between failure •Order and shipping time Product Support Integrators must also ensure that selected product support providers are fully able to accomplish certain essential complementary product support roles in addition to providing delivery of materiel: - ANSWER •Requirements determination •Engineering and technical services •Warehousing •Obsolescence management and disposal •Transportation management •Warranty processing •Configuration control •Bit or piece support •Technology insertion and upgrade •Guaranteed and accelerated delivery [Show More]
