Elements and Performance Criteria

  1. Analyse operational requirement
  2. Operational requirement is analysed to establish provisioning requirements
  3. Operational factors are analysed to identify variables to be considered in provisioning
  4. Technical supply factors are analysed to identify variables to be considered in provisioning
  5. Liaison with other logistics planners is undertaken to inform specialist supply aspects of provisioning requirement
  6. Calculate provisioning requirement
  7. Stockholding factors are determined and analysed to provide a basis for provisioning calculation
  8. Time factors are determined and analysed to establish duration of supply and lead time required for provisioning
  9. Usage rates are calculated to define frequency and quantity of stock to be consumed by dependencies
  10. Total liability period is calculated to establish period dependencies will be required to provide initial self-sustainment before routine replenishment is available
  11. Assets and liabilities are identified through analysis of stockholding and time factors in accordance with organisational policy and procedure
  12. Surpluses or deficiencies are calculated based on established assets and liabilities
  13. Develop and report provisioning requirement
  14. Provisioning data is created based upon analysis and provisioning calculations
  15. Provisioning requirement is adjusted in accordance with changing operational need
  16. Provisioning requirement is communicated to stakeholders
