Reconstitution in COST

• CBS 3.5 Equipment Maintenance
• Organizational Level Maintenance
• Equipment must be fully mission capable
• Equipment fault identification occurs during
  prescribed inspection intervals
• Equipment servicing performed regularly
• Urgent, limited safety related work orders
  applied
• BII COEI are available or on valid funding
  requests (basic issue items component of end
  items)

Calculations

• Four reconstitution equations
• Ships
• Aircraft
• Ground equipment
• Ground units
• Equations updated September 2002
• COST users can modify values
• Factor overrides
• Calculated-cost overrides
