| 英文摘要: | As the United States Army winds down from over a decade of contingency operations, the Army's demand for repair parts is expected to decrease. Army Materiel Command (AMC) executives are concerned that a decrease in orders to suppliers could raise the risk that either the suppliers will shift production or fail, potentially disrupting the Army's supply chain. AMC is currently implementing a Strategic Sourcing and Supplier Relationship Management initiative to help the Army reduce supply chain costs by identifying strategic suppliers and working closely with them to improve performance. As part of that initiative, AMC asked RAND to determine the supply chain risk by supplier and the supply chain risk factors that are critical to AMC. This report documents a process and methodology that allow AMC to assess supply chain risk by repair part, supplier, and weapon system. It also presents the results of a workshop conducted with AMC's Strategic Sourcing Working Group to elicit their concerns about supplier risks facing the Army. The researchers concluded that only a few hundred of the 9,300 parts analyzed have much risk, mainly because of the large inventory still on hand. Among the factors that increase supply chain risk are lack of technical drawings, expired contracts, and unpredictable demand patterns. A key recommendation is that the Army should institute a regimen to track the risk associated with the supply of repair parts. |
