Modeling the Cost Implications of Alternative Faco Strategies for Jsf Production
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Analyzing the costs of any production task can be complex. In this case, the many scenarios that must be considered make the analysis even more difficult. To analyze different work splits, we have developed a cost model that can be used to examine the effects of the cost drivers under different scenarios. We have also identified and examined a number of other issues beyond those in the congressional language to complete a full and objective evaluation of the different scenarios.

General Policy Issues Related to Splitting Defense Production
While not prescribing a JSF FACO approach, the congressional language calling for this study required an examination of alternate FACO strategies. The language focused principally on various factors that would affect the cost at the different potential FACO sites. While cost is a predominant consideration, other issues must be explored as well to ensure an informed decision regarding the sharin...
متن کاملAnalyzing Acquisition Costs
In the analysis below, we consider introducing a second contractor early in the JSF program. Our focus is on what makes sense at the beginning of EMD, which should occur approximately a year after this study. For this study, we have cost data regarding the baseline winnertake-all program from both of the JSF contractors plus the JSF Program Office. The alternative is to introduce competition, f...
متن کاملDynamic modeling to determine production strategies in order to maximize net present worth in small and medium size companies
Determining production rate considering costs and revenues in order to maximize profit is one of the applied problems in small and medium size factories. Mostly existing models in production planning consider production system statically and specify production rate, although the factors determining production rate include many different changes in practice. In fact, by increasing the production...
متن کاملOne-Dimensional Electrolyzer Modeling and System Sizing for Solar Hydrogen Production: an Economic Approach
In this paper, a solar based hydrogen production in the city of Tehran, the capital of Iran is simulated and the cost of produced hydrogen is evaluated. Local solar power profile is obtained using TRNSYS software for a typical parking station in Tehran. The generated electricity is used to supply power to a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzer for hydrogen production. Dynamic nature of s...

Maize (Zea mays L.) is an important crop among Brazilian smallholder farmers,who are also responsible for 40% of the poultry and egg production in the country.Although poultry litter is considered a potential pollutant, if properly stabilized anddistributed in the field it can be used as a source of nitrogen for maize production.In this study, the response of maize to mineral fertilizer and pou...
