Obsolescence Risk and Impact: FMTV

Ark.ai conducted a sustainment program analysis of the FMTV Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles program, examining the vendors, their suppliers, manufacturers, shippers, and other members of the supply chain – as well as the critical parts and NiiNs the FMTV program relies on. The program analysis focuses particularly on obsolescence risk, including obsolete NiiNs, declining procurement, and sole sourced parts.

The analysis of the FMTV program resulted in the following statistics. There are 4,961 Parts with Declining Procurement and 122 Manufacturers with Declining Procurement. The count of Obsolete Parts is 22,221 and the FMTV program is dependent on 5,683 Sole Sourced Parts.

Information about the critical vendors for the FMTV program, as well as a list of the obsolete and sole sourced parts, can be found in the following tables.
