Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages
Year: 2012
Abstract: Scope and Objective
A Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) issue is the loss, or impending loss, of manufacturers or suppliers of items, or raw materials, or software. The Department of Defense (DoD) loses a manufacturer or supplier when that manufacturer or supplier discontinues production of needed components or raw materials, or the supply of raw material is no longer available. This can be caused by many factors—such as low-volume market demand, new or evolving science or technology, detection limits, toxicity values, and regulations related to chemicals and materials—that significantly affect the DoD supply chain and industrial base. This situation may cause shortages that endanger an ongoing production capability and/or the life-cycle support of a weapon system or any training, support, or test equipment already in the field.1 Ultimately, DMSMS issues affect materiel readiness and operational availability, which, in turn, affect both combat operations and safety.
No system or program is immune from DMSMS issues. They affect short- and long-lived systems; reparables and consumables; space-based, air-based, ground-based, and sea-based equipment (including support and test equipment); and so on. DMSMS issues are not confined to piece parts or devices; obsolescence may occur at the part, module, component, equipment, or system level. DMSMS issues are also not limited to defense-unique items; commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) items represent a significant obsolescence problem, because such items are most susceptible to market forces. Historically, DMSMS management has been most closely associated with electronics. This is no longer the case. DMSMS managers are now equally concerned with materials, non-electronics items, and software. 2
This standardization document, which replaces the September 2010 version of SD-22, is intended primarily for the DMSMS practitioner community. It is a guidebook of best practices for implementing an effective DMSMS management program throughout the system life cycle. Because DMSMS considerations affect how a system is designed and sustained, program managers (PMs), engineers, and life-cycle logisticians (including supply chain managers, inventory managers, and maintainers) are also affected. Consequently, as beneficiaries of DMSMS management best practices, these communities and their associated policymakers are also part of the intended audience.
The purpose of this document is fivefold:
• Create awareness of the extent and impact of DMSMS issues on DoD systems.
• Define a robust DMSMS management process that a PM can use to build an effective DMSMS management program.
• Define DMSMS support metrics to measure the effectiveness of a robust DMSMS management program.
• Promote affordable and efficient program support through rapid and cost-effective DMSMS best practices and resolutions that take into account equipment life cycles, technology changes, and preplanned obsolescence.
• Promote the exercise of DMSMS management best practices throughout the acquisition life cycle.
1 The word "system," as used in this document, encompasses weapon systems and training, support, and test equipment.
2 Software obsolescence will be covered in a future update of this document. Generally, the use of the word "item" in this document is intended to be all-inclusive of parts, assemblies, software applications, and material.
