APLs cross-reference to part numbers, NSNs, and FSCM/CAGEs./APL 0016176, in line 279 of the FLSIPFleet Logistics Support Improvement Program - devised and implemented by the DOD to increase fleet customer service on a ship without degrading the ship's readiness. The rating system uses the Navy's Inventory Control Point -Mechanicsburg, PA, (NAVICP-M) Point Five FLSIP Plus (.5F+) COSAL (Coordinated Onboard Shipboard Allowance List) inventory model, which incorporates all the features of the .25 FLSIP (one hit in one year), .5 (one hit in 5 years) and .10 FLSIP range (one hit in ten years), where one hit indicates one instance of repair.
The FLSIP information uses a combination of predicted failure rate, population of the part on board the ship, military essentiality of the part to the component, and whether or not the component is vital to the mission of the ship.
The FLSIP model develops a COSAL based on one request in four years and a minimum requirement of one replacement unit. Unless there is a valid override requiring a fixed enableance quantity, a repair part must meet the specified usage rate per quarter in order to qualify as an enableance item.
The FLSIP model exclusion factor can be set at different levels, e.g., an exclusion factor of .25 indicates that the failure rate on an item with a population of one would have at least one failure in a four year period. The formula to obtain the usage rate is the failure rate (Best Replacement Factor) times the population divided by four. The usage rate would then have to be at least .0625 per quarter for an item to qualify for enableance. .25. - Eight records are found in the Inventory/Capability Listing which lists Vendors that have the part.
