LOG 0050 – Developing a Life Cycle Sustainment Plan (LCSP) Knowledge Review Questions The LCSP focuses on which of the following:  Who will do what?  When it will be done?  How it will be done (e.g., specific tools and processes)?  All of the above The LCSP Introduction describes the LCSP’s specific purpose, scope, focus, and objective; it also __________  Summarizes corrective actions from design, programmatic, test, and logistics review  Addresses LCSP update methods and the criteria for doing so  Details design reviews from a sustainment perspective  Focuses on the events that drive the program’s sustainment budget Each LCSP should be tailored to meet the program’s specific needs.  True  False In Life Cycle Management, performance-based product support (also known as Performance Based Logistics) is tied to outcome-based sustainment metrics. (True or False)  True  False Select the two overarching policy documents for LCSPs.  DoD Instruction 5000.91  DoD Directive 5000.01  DoD Instruction 5000.02  DoD Instruction 5000.88 The LCSP is a primary management tool used to document the PM’s plans for which of these objectives? Select THREE answers that apply.  Statically describing the program policy and guidance for sustainment product support  Continually measuring, assessing, and reporting program execution in terms of cost, schedule, and performance, schedule, sustainment, and cost outcomes  Providing the user with an effective, affordable, sustainable system and product support approach that meets specified performance requirements  Delivery the Warfighter’s requirements through the product support package In addition to including the assigned responsibilities and management approach for achieving effective and timely acquisition, product support, and availability throughout the program’s life cycle, what other TWO elements must the LCSP include?  A schedule for developing and fielding the product support package  Listings for other product support managers involved with the program’s tasking  Funding required and budgeted by year (including the appropriation) for the product support elements  A manifest of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) systems or programs used to track the life cycle

Which policy document describes the requirements for covered and non-covered system LCSPs?  DoD Directive 5000.01  DoD Instruction 5000.91  DoD Instruction 5000.02  DoD Instruction 5000.88 Who is responsible for oversight and management of the product support function, including developing, implementing, integrating, and fielding the Product Support Package required to meet the Warfighter’s sustainment are readiness requirements? Select the TWO that apply.  Program Manager  Program Risk Manager  Product Support Manager  Program Integration Manager Key enterprise players the PM and PSM engage during LCSP development are Combat and Joint Operational Commands (Warfighter), the Financial Community, and what other Communities? Select the TWO that apply.  Program and Acquisition Communities  Communications Community  Oversight and Judicial Communities  Sustainment Community Sustainment metrics provide the common thread to integrate the product support elements and to align the behaviors required to achieve the desired materiel readiness outcome across the entire enterprise.  True  False Which of the following is NOT an example a “Desing to” metric for Maintainability:  Repair Turnaround Time (RTAT)  Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF)  Depot Maintenance Man-hours  Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) What metrics are required to achieve a system’s Key Performance Parameters (KPPs), Key System Attributes (KSA), and Additional Performance Attributes (APA) across the life cycle?  Input-based Metrics  Life Cycle Sustainment Outcome Metrics  Potential Additional Outcome Metrics  Behavior-based Outcome Metrics True or False: Additional Outcome Metrics that are “design-to” metrics that support the mandatory Life Cycle Sustainment Outcome Metrics should be coordinated with systems engineers and included in the design specifications.  True  False

During which TWO phases of the MCA pathway does the LCSP focus most on the Product Support Package (PSP) implementation details?  Materiel Solution Analysis  Technology Maturation and Risk Reduction  Production and Deployment  Operations and Support During the __________ phase of the MCA pathway, the LCSP documents the approved maintenance plan and metrics.  Materiel Solution Analysis  Technology Maturation and Risk Reduction  Production and Deployment  Operations and Support In the Operations and Support phase, the LCSP documents which items? Select TWO that apply.  Tracking metrics and adjustment plans  Setting metrics thresholds and test methods  Adjustments to fielding plans  Required new sustainment technologies for initial design In what MCA phase does the LCSP focus on the baseline product support strategy, the analytical process for determining affordable metrics objectives and thresholds, and ensuring supportability design features are included in design specifications and the development Request for Proposal?  Materiel Solution Analysis  Technology Maturation and Risk Reduction  Engineering and Manufacturing Development  Engineering and Manufacturing Development  Operations and Support During the Production and Deployment phase of the MCA pathway, the LCSP focuses on analytical and management processes for refining the Product Support Package elements and deploying the Product Support Package.  True  False The first LCSP focus on framing the baseline product support strategy and affordable metrics happens during which phase of the MCA pathway?  Materiel Solution Analysis  Engineering and Manufacturing Development  Production and Deployment  Operations and Support Life Cycle Sustainment Outcome Metrics are essential to effective and affordable sustainment planning, and consist of Availability, reliability, and what other critical metrics? Select TWO that apply.  Maintainability  Transportation Method  Supply Pipeline Time  Operating and Support (O&S) Cost
