There are several definitions for logistics within systems engineering and the definition used will determine what activities are considered part of logistics. The SEBoK defines logistics as “the science of planning and implementing the acquisition and use of the resources necessary to sustain the operation of a system.” )
Scope
Logistics Systems Engineering products and services include: • Integrated Support Planning – Defining
and planning support requirements that continue through the product’s life cycle as part of the system design
• Performance Based Logistics – Defining
the requirements, plans, procedures and management methods needed for support from product or system development to its retirement
• Logistics Support Analysis/Maintenance
Engineering Analysis – Defining detailed reliability, maintainability, and support requirements for the life of the product for both mil-spec and commercial applications
• Life Cycle Cost/Total Ownership Cost
Analysis – Providing analysis to determine the most cost-effective methods and means of support during the total life of the product
• Warranty Management/Support –
Providing planning, technical and program management, computer tracking and coordinating analysis of failure data
• Repair Level Analysis – Determining the
most cost-appropriate level to which a product or system should be repaired
• Diminished Manufacturing Sources
Analysis – Providing modeling techniques to anticipate future financial concerns caused by part obsolescence issues
• Spares Analysis – Defining the optimal mix
of spares based on cost and availability
