	Description:		When it comes to getting spare parts for military systems, it’s not always as easy as simply placing an order. Sometimes the original manufacturers no longer exist. Sometimes wait times are excruciatingly long. That’s one reason the Navy wants to make the best use it can of the materials it already owns. A new effort by Naval Supply Systems Command aims to help do that by reusing as many items as possible from decommissioned units, instead of sending them away for disposal as surplus property. Robert Medina is the deputy director for NAVSUP’s West Coast Consumable Asset Reutilization Program, and Doug Murphy is the material management and warehouse utilization product and service lead. They talked about it with Federal News Network’s Jared Serbu. Murphy speaks first.
