Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This report summarizes the findings from working group SAS-132 on Models and Tools for Logistics Analysis. This activity had three primary objectives with associated deliverables. The first one was to develop an information collection template (Deliverable D01) to inventory and characterize models and tools of interest. This template is fairly detailed, with over 90 fields for each tool, and is documented according to standard NATO terminology and NATO logistic doctrine. The second one, based on D01, was a survey of the participating nations and organizations in order to develop a catalogue (matrix) of models and tools used by NATO nations and PfPs to analyse military logistics (Deliverable D02). This catalogue can serve as a reference for the participating nations and more broadly for operational research analysts across the Alliance. The third one (Deliverable D03) is the present report. It uses the information collected in the catalogue to identify gaps in terms of analytical capabilities, overlaps, and areas for potential collaboration, and documents them, along with D01 and D02, in a final activity report. The SAS-132 working group surveyed over 100 models and tools used for logistics analysis within SAS-132 participating nations, namely CAN, CZE, DEU, GBR, NLD, SWE, TUR and NATO NCIA. We identified 75 tools with a strong logistics analysis focus for which we collected additional information. The information collection template was in the form of a spreadsheet containing over 90 fields. It captured various aspects of the models and tools of interest, such as the area(s) of sustainment logistics analyzed by each tool, the area(s) of procurement logistics analyzed, the context of the analyses, information requirements, etc. The collected information was then reviewed and collated into a single catalogue of models and tools. This catalogue can now serve as a reference for logistics analysts within the Alliance and can also help us identify gaps in terms of logistics analysis capabilities, overlaps, as well as areas for sharing and future collaboration. It presents, in a structured way, which Logistics models are used in the participant countries and this catalogue of national models in Excel format can be used as is by any NATO or Partner nation to determine which Logistics models are available and being used in other nations. The analysis revealed that individual participating nations have different approaches to conduct logistics analysis using modelling and simulation tools. Some nations mainly use broad, institutionally recognized models as standard supporting tools for logistics considerations. Others mainly use fit-for-purpose models designed to handle specific problems, while some nations rely on NATO recognized software (e.g., LOGFAS) only. Despite these differences, the wide and deep potential of the set of tools and instruments identified creates a solid foundation for future cooperation between NATO and PfP nations for logistics analysis and also provides opportunities to share existing models.
