Obsolescence Risk and Impact: T-AGOS 23

Ark.ai conducted a sustainment program analysis of the T-AGOS 23 Impeccable Class Ocean Surveillance Ship program, examining the vendors, their suppliers, manufacturers, shippers, and other members of the supply chain – as well as the critical parts and NiiNs the T-AGOS 23 program relies on. The program analysis focuses particularly on obsolescence risk, including obsolete NiiNs, declining procurement, and sole sourced parts.

The analysis of the T-AGOS 23 program resulted in the following statistics. There are 1,976 Parts with Declining Procurement and 128 Manufacturers with Declining Procurement. The count of Obsolete Parts is 19,969 and the T-AGOS 23 program is dependent on 6,421 Sole Sourced Parts.

Information about the critical vendors for the T-AGOS 23 program, as well as a list of the obsolete and sole sourced parts are included in the following tables.
