BACKGROUND Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) is the loss, or impending loss, of manufacturers or suppliers of critical items and raw materials. We lose a manufacturer when that manufacturer discontinues or plans to discontinue production of needed components or raw materials. This discontinuance can be caused by rapid changes in item or material technology, uneconomical production requirements, foreign competition, federal environmental or safety requirements, and limited availability or increasing cost of items and raw materials used in the manufacturing process. DMSMS can occur in any phase of a program’s life cycle, from early design phases through post-production support, and has the potential to severely impact the program/end item in terms of schedule and life cycle cost. These problems can affect readiness and operating cost if left unresolved by increasing repair times and the cost of resolving the materiel shortage. DMSMS problems are an increasing concern as the service lives of DoD weapon systems are extended and the product life cycle for high technology components decrease. The problem is further complicated by a reduction in the industrial base dedicated to production of military equipment. In fact, the DoD now accounts for less than one-half of one percent of total microelectronic component sales. In addition, aging fleets of ships and aircraft have lost their original supplier-base of constituent mechanical, hydraulic, and other component parts. OBJECTIVE The objective of DMSMS 2005 is to focus on the need for proactive DMSMS management to support the warfighter. Our approaches to managing the ever-present obsolescence problem must be examined. As the military seeks a quicker, more lethal warfighting capability, we must also implement business practices that respond to non-availability issues rapidly and efficiently. Exploitation of modern information technology to anticipate problems and share solutions becomes a requirement to support the warfighter. This conference will present an opportunity to hear the views of military leaders on what will be required to support the modern warfighter and a forum to discuss the best programmatic, technical and logistics approaches for us to take.
