Abstract
Munitions are one of the most critical and sensitive assets in the military supply chain, and its supply in the battlefield can greatly affect the result of the war. Historical data show that military forces are often provided either too much or too little ammunition because of the lack of visibility. This paper introduces the Munitions Visibility Management System that contains two parts, an organizational system and a technological system. The former one is from the administrative angle to standardize and control, and the latter one is from the technological angle to integrate and implement technologies needed. It gives a new way in studying the management of munitions.
Highlights
Munitions are high value military assets and munitions visibilities management system is part of military total asset visibility system which uses advanced technologies in tracking and monitoring munitions and doing data analyzing to grasp the munitions status in logistic supply chain, helping the munitions managers, military planner and decision-makers at various echelons to make right decisions on the munitions’ employment
It’s difficult to achieve this goal because it involves an entire military supply chain, high technologies, integration and standardization of data among military services and domestic and even international commercial sectors
[1] it is highly important to design the operational framework of organizational system and technological architecture of munitions visibility management system
