Parts integrity is the ability to know and track each aircraft part, or end item status, expected lifetime, and component information in logistics plan. DoD must ensure supply lines subject to ever changing risks are forward looking, protected &viable. Supply line risk mitigations are continually enhanced/upgraded to minimise the risk that DoD warfighting mission capability will be compromised due to vulnerabilities in sourcing of system design & mission critical functions/components.
 
Parts Availability is having the cost-effective, quality parts where and when required Key element include improved source selection and sustainment of qualified, capable, and competent suppliers and associated long-term partnering. The logistics plan will rapidly source and qualify new suppliers and incorporate new or innovative repair processes and technologies where reasonable and effective.
 
Rapid system build technologies and processes have been included in logistics support plan to incorporate alternate system build solutions such as material substitution of modern extrusions, 3-D printing, etc. Processes and technologies are in place to rapidly identify alternate methods or raw materials to build the end items. Real-time sourcing process certification of special requirements applications will improve the cycle time and effectiveness of first article qualification process.
 
3-D models will be created where reasonable and effective and provided to suppliers for the build of spares to support the logistics plan and continue to improve the probability of first pass quality during first article acceptance and follow on part/lot build acquisitions through oversight and control of qualified and competent sources.
 
Integrated supply line activities reduce hand-off and cycle time reviewed to assess actual usage versus forecasted usage and then updated to account for emerging issues ultimately replaced by real-time evaluation of sourcing selection. Recurring “stumble-on” and/or over-and-above sustainment actions/support are engineered, planned, and incorporated into the work package and accounted for with appropriate usage factors so supply line can incorporate them into demand forecasting activities and implement logistics plan across all commodity and weapons system repair lines.
 
 1. No accurate definition of part component requirements

2. Insufficient/uncorrelated part component forecasting accuracy
 
3. Inadequate piece part component visibility into inventories at commodity or sub-system level
 
4. Discrepant materials handling, verification testing of part component identity
 
5. Supply line not innovative to include high volume and one-off/obsolete part components
 
6. Not agile in rapid certification of supplier part component build sources
 
7. Deficits in upholding parts components integrity, quality and configuration
 
8. Low/lengthy first article accept part components test pass rates and unacceptable supplier performance
 
9. Difficult source selection of raw stock materials to build part component end item
 
10. Vulnerability to disruptions in supply line delivery of part component resiliency, flexibility, adaptability & responsiveness

Top 10 Site Visit Executive Responsibilities for Trade-off Evaluation of Capabilities Requirements Priorities of  Weapons Systems Acquisition
 
Responsibilities have been transferred to a new capabilities requirements priorities  review process established for major weapons system acquisitions require Site Visit Executive decision to pursue specific product or design concepts, and to commit resources to develop technology and reduce risks before committing resources for system development.

DoD officials accepted major weapons system programme procurement quantities included in capabilities requirements priorities updates provided by Military Service acquisition office but did not obtain input and reviews for procurement quantity from Site Visit Executive when validating requirements documents.

Since Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System guidance does not define Site Visit Executive roles and methods for assessing and reviewing procurement quantity DoD officials could not ensure appropriate tradeoffs were made between total service life cost, schedule & performance of weapons systems.

Capability requirements priorities updates with inaccurate procurement quantities for major weapons system programs reached new stages of process could result in the Military Services buying more weapon systems than necessary and expend billions of unnecessary dollars. For these programs, DoD relies on Site Visit Executive to execute the following tasks.
 
1. Site Visit Executive must establish practice to consistently evaluate procurement quantity submitted by sponsors.
 
2. Site Visit Executive must execute capabilities requirements priorities procedures to assess validity and accuracy of procurement quantity submitted by sponsors.
 
3. Site Visit Executive must require subordinate boards to obtain capabilities requirements priorities input from advisors and stakeholders to execute systematic reviews of procurement quantity.
 
4. Site Visit Executive must establish expectations for stakeholders and advisors to evaluate procurement quantity throughout capabilities requirements priorities validation process
 
5. Site Visit Executive must create techniques for evaluating procurement quantity for each capabilities requirements priorities validation decision.
 
6. Site Visit Executive must define support requirements for new capabilities requirements priorities review process to ensuring appropriate tradeoffs are made among service life costs & schedules.
 
7. Site Visit Executive must coordinate new capabilities requirements priorities review process required in ensuring appropriate tradeoffs are made among performance, and procurement quantity
 
8. Site Visit Executive must define capabilities requirements priorities to assess and review procurement quantity
 
9. Site Visit Executive must implement oversight procedures and accountable methods for determination of capabilities requirements priorities to ensure evaluation of procurement quantity.
 
10. Site Visit Executive must establish realistic capabilities requirements priorities expectations and accountability in ensuring appropriate procurement tradeoffs are assessed

Things like these sound complicated for me. It's because I didn't set my mind to enter this industry. But to be honest, I finished reading the article because I know there is something to digest here. I am looking forward for more articles that are easier to understand, an article where everyone can relate to. But since you are dealing with a huge entity, I think you will settle to the standard you've set ever since. Don't worry I will still visit your website!
