Report To The Secretary Of The Air Force


Excessive Air Force Inventories

Result From Duplicative

Spare Parts Requirements



The Air Force manages, buys, and stocks
spare parts at five logistics centers/depots
to support Air Force weapons systems, The
five logistics centers manage consumable
parts valued at over $3 billion. Each depot
also operates a maintenance activity to
repair weapons systems and their com-
ponents. This report contains recommen-
dations for eliminating duplicative depot
maintenance requirements from spare
parts inventories.

Programming logic used to compute total
Air Force consumable spare parts require-
ments results in some depot maintenance
requirements being counted twice. As of
March 31, 1983, the Air Force was invest-
ing $119 million in unnecessary inventory
because of this duplication and about $21.5
million annually in maintaining this inven-
tory.
