Description
Dyna-METRIC Version 6 is a capability assessment model that relates logistics resources and pipelines to wartime readiness and sustainability. Developed for logisticians to improve wartime logistics support, the various versions of Dyna-METRIC assess the effect of wartime dynamics and repair constraints and provide operational performance measures. Version 6 improves upon earlier model versions by incorporating a more fully developed representation of the repair process and its constraints. It also considers the effects of additional sources of uncertainty and some strategies that might mitigate that uncertainty.
