3. Creating a SpareCost Project
To demonstrate ToolKit’s SpareCost features, we’ll create an example based on the following:
One Army Regiment will be deployed in the Middle East for 6 months. The Command Post shelter is mounted on a
HEMTT and is fitted with five computer workstation. We will use SpareCost to determine the Site and Base spare results
and cost, the Site and Base Stock-Out-Risk and optimized the number of spare at the site for those five computers:
Army Technical Depot
(Base)
Repair Lead Time: 5 Days

5 Computers including:
- One 19” VGA Monitor. MTBF = 3600 hrs. FR = 277.8 FPMH
- One Pentium 4 PC. MTBF = 5040 hrs. FR = 198.4 FPMH
- One Standard Keyboard. MTBF = 2880 hrs. FR = 347.2 FPMH
- One Serial Mouse. MTBF = 2160 hrs. FR = 463 FPMH
