the replenishment of supplies is based on anticipated requirements or standard consumption rates
Good to know
In practice, a combination of push and pull methods is used to support combined/multinational operations and will vary for each phase. Nations and commanders will have to adapt and compromise, creating an efficient supply chain and an effective regeneration loop.
One of two main methods of providing combat service support, the push concept of support is used when consumption of support is predictable and routine in nature or standard patterns of behaviour (e.g. consumption of rations, provision of preventative health and equipment maintenance) or there is a command decision to keep force elements ‘topped up’ to a prescribed level of supplies via automatic replenishment. In reality, a combination of push and pull methods are utilised and will vary within phases of an operation or activity.
For example, automatic replenishment is a ‘push’ method of replenishment that is scheduled periodically and requires supplies to be made available for units to draw from the distribution system based on anticipated usage rates and target stock levels, without raising a formal demand. As such, automatic replenishment is a ‘push’ method of distribution, which is best suited to the distribution of combat supplies in higher intensity conflict.
