Identifying and Managing Acquisition and Sustainment Supply Chain Risks

by Elvira N. Loredo, Amy G. Cox, Nancy Y. Moore

This document seeks to help the Air Force develop a strategy for managing supply chain risks during weapon system acquisition and sustainment. The authors review the literature on supply chain risk management and report on a series of interviews they conducted within acquisition, sustainment, and commercial communities. They also describe a prototype methodology that the Air Force may wish to use to identify and manage supply chain risks.
