The Applied Logistics Research program was initiated by the Air Force Research Laboratory's Logistics Readiness Branch (AFRL/HEAL) to provide specialized research support to develop, demonstrate, and evaluate logistics technologies. Specific research tasks could focus on feasibility studies, cost- benefit analyses, modeling and simulation, front-end analyses, field test support activities, and demonstration system development within the domains of operational, contingency, and acquisition logistics. Operational logistics improve the performance of logistics personnel in all operational environments. Contingency logistics improve the speed, efficiency, and ease of deployment of all logistics support elements necessary to support contingency operations. Acquisition logistics improve the logistics elements of systems during development through improved system design support and information technologies. AFRL/HEAL narrowed the research tasks to the following seven areas of interest: (1) Quantifying the Impact of Aircraft Cannibalization, (2) The Use of Decision Models in the Development of a Collaborative Integrated Solutions System, (3) Fleet-Level Selective Maintenance and Aircraft Scheduling, (4) Multi-Mission Selective Maintenance Decisions, (5) Quantifying the Effect of Commercial Transportation Practices in Military Supply Chains, (6) Hybrid Simulation/Analytic Models for Military Supply Chain Performance Analysis, and (7) Commercial Practices as Applied to Total Asset Visibility. Tasks covering each of the areas above were developed and consolidated into a single delivery order on the AFRL Technology for Readiness and Sustainment (TRS) research contract with Northrop Grumman Information Technology Inc. The tasks on the delivery order were performed over a 24-month period by the University of Arkansas, Department of Industrial Engineering, with the assistance of Northrop Grumman. This report provides a condensed summary of the research and findings for each task.
