Acquisition Logistics addresses the life cycle of a system and the technical management of the design, development, test, production, fielding, sustainment, and improvement modifications of systems. Most of a system’s life-cycle costs can be attributed directly to operations and support costs once the system is fielded. VISTA ensures supportability is included as a system performance requirement. This means that items necessary to the initial fielding and operational support are identified, developed and acquired, and determined to be cost-effective throughout its life-cycle.

We recognize that a system is more than a single piece of equipment and includes operators and maintainers, spare parts, support equipment, compatibility, facilities, and training. Acquisition Logistics begins with early planning for the system and continues throughout its useful life. Reliability, maintainability, and availability are key factors.

We work to identify, consider, and trade-off support considerations with other system cost, schedule and performance elements to arrive at an optimum balance of system requirements that meet the user’s operational and readiness requirements.

VISTA helps you find solutions that are timely, cost-effective, and outcome-based to meet your needs and support your mission.
