This course is tailored to meet the requirements of the Capability and Technology Management College (CTMC). The course aims to examine the concepts and techniques required to sustain the physical asset elements of a capability. The course will provide students with various case studies to examine world’s best practice as well as physical asset management sustainment failures. These cases include civilian and military applications. The course covers the various aspects of physical asset sustainment, in particular: maintenance and inventory requirements, fundamental inputs to capability (FIC) requirements, the establishment and operation of supply chains and configuration management systems required and the use of life cycle costing (LCC) to support a physical asset fleet throughout its life cycle. Through a series of lecture presentations, discussions and workshops, students will develop an understanding of physical asset sustainment.
