Abstract Flory et al discusses the recently proposed forward stocking by Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), in which items are stored centrally in-theater and then shipped to the Air Force units in the area of responsibility (AOR) bases. A general methodology is presented to model and evaluate the performance of forward stocking--although the methodology is applicable to any potential theater, only United States Air Force Central Command (USCENTAF) with storage at Defense Distribution Depot Kuwait (DDKS), is considered in detail. As a result, analysis was conducted on the combined USCENTAF demands, items currently not forward stocked because of insufficient storage space, and items that are currently forward stocked. Several different sets of criteria are applied to the demand data, and their performance is discussed.
