You asked, so here it is. A nerdy thread on #AstraMilitarum logistics in the #Warhammer40K universe - a side project of mine. Mixes background with my own experiences as a staffer and reading as a historian. Many guesses and assumptions. Collar tabs must be this red to enter. 
This all started with a spreadsheet that lists each company type's supply requirement, how much it weighs, and how long it takes to use up. e.g. a gasmask canister weights 2kg, needs replacing every 10 days, so you need 200g of gasmask canisters/person/day.
There's three consumption figures - one for static, one for defensive ops, one for attack. Eg. a standard ten-platoon #Krieg infantry company needs 4,500kg of supplies/day when static, rising to 33,000kg when attacking.
