This report presents a summarization of a study to fully assess the scope of spare parts provisioning, utilization and control within the maritime industry. Volume II includes both a qualitative and quantitative assessment of spare parts requirements for a typical merchant ship; prevailing maritime industry practices regarding spare parts identification, procurement, inventory control, centralized warehousing and pooling; together with marine equipment manufacturers' procedures. Volume III of the report presents the findings of a study to analyze wartime merchant ship supply support requirements for spare parts, including identification of support deficiencies and evaluation of alternative means of improving support capability. The information contained in the studies represents inputs from a significant cross-section of U.S. shipowners/operators of subsidized, non-subsidized and international fleets, as well as other source documents and representatives of the Naval Supply System.
