Summary The development of modeling and simulation (M&S) to support Total Life Cycle Management (TLCM) is complex and requires a close examination of the factors involved and results obtained. The insights derived from M&S can contribute significantly to operational readiness and the cost readiness. Consequently, research is needed to identify important data and key TLCM factors. We will experiment with modeling tools and simulations for the purpose of assessing their accuracy and applicability. Finally, we will participate in the development of a TLCM tool that best meets the needs of the logistical requirements of the United States Marine Corps.
