Inadequacy

The difference between an asset’s current physical condition and its capability to meet mission requirements based on an analysis of current and future needs by subject matter experts (SMEs) familiar with the asset and its subsystems. Analysis may consider issues such as environment, safety, and health and/or risk, capability to perform current mission, ability to attract and maintain key staff, and the ability to meet DOE requirements. Where applicable, as for utility systems, reliability and capacity required to perform current mission should also be considered.
