This Department of the Air Force Pamphlet (DAFPAM) complements Air Force Instruction (AFI)
63-101/20-101, Integrated Life Cycle Management. It provides informational guidance and
recommended procedures for executing a Product Support Business Case Analysis (PS-BCA).
Additional non-mandatory guidance on best practices, lessons learned, and expectations are
available in the Department of Defense Product Support BCA Guidebook. To ensure
standardization, any United States Space Force (USSF) or United States Space Force (USAF)
organization supplementing this publication will send the implementing publication to the
Assistant Secretary of the Air Force/Product Support and Logistics (SAF/AQD) for review and
coordination before publishing. This publication applies to the Regular Air Force, the Air Force
Reserve, the Air National Guard, and, unless and until such time as independent guidance is issued,
the United States Space Force. It also applies to other individuals or organizations as required by
binding agreement or obligation with the Department of the Air Force (DAF). Note: Until such
time as the USSF issues its own guidance, all references to United States Air Force (USAF)
terminology, units, and positions will also apply to the equivalent in the USSF, as appropriate. For
example, references to Airmen will also apply to Guardians. References to MAJCOMs or NAFs
will also apply to Field Commands. References to wings will also apply to deltas/garrisons. Air
Staff roles and responsibilities (i.e. AF/A4) may also apply to the equivalent Office of the Chief
of Space Operations (Space Staff) office (i.e. SF/COO, etc), as appropriate. For nuclear systems
or related components ensure the appropriate nuclear regulations are applied as specified in AFI
63-101/20-101. Refer recommended changes and questions about this publication to the OPR
listed above using Air Force (AF) Form 847, Recommendation for Change of Publication; route
AF Forms 847 from the field through the appropriate chain of command. Ensure that all records
