Comprehensive logistics supportability and sus-tainment planning for combat systems and equipment is an investment to ensure that our Soldiers receive warfighting capabilities that are reliable, maintainable, sustainable, and affordable. In the long run, these attributes enable commanders to sustain combat power in their warfighting platforms through improved materiel readiness. Identifying and communicating key logistics supportability and sustainment requirements to system materiel developers (program management teams) early in the capability development process are critical to achieving systems that are fully supportable when they are fielded. This ultimately supports Department of Defense and Army goals for reducing total ownership cost and the logistics footprint while meeting operational and system readiness objectives and improving logistics standardization and interoperability.
