The entire spectrum of the military asset management practices are being profoundly affected by changes in organizational doctrine, information technology, real-time asset visibility, and decision support capabilities. Procurement, repair, spares allocation, and logistics practices will all be impacted significantly. The greatest point of leverage in future asset management will come from coordinating decisions at strategic, tactical, and operational levels across organizational boundaries. This coordination results from an integrated view of overarching mission requirements as opposed to a functional view of requirements.
This white paper identifies the implications and challenges of military asset management and outlines best practices for optimizing requirements.
