Downloaded from https://www.everyspec.com the SFA to the supportability strategy; and provide a copy of the SFA to ACSIM (DAIM–MD), gaining ACOM, ARNG, ASCC, USAR, DRUs, and installations. f. Participate in DA ILSRs. g. Participate in DASA ILS Logistics IPTs as required. h. Designate a person to serve on the AILSEC. 2–12. Program manager The PM is responsible for planning and implementing ILS as an integral part of assigned materiel acquisition programs. The PM will enlist the support of the AMC LCMCs to carry out this responsibility and will— a. Establish internal procedures and controls to implement this policy. b.

Ensure that passage of a system from one life-cycle phase to the next occurs only when all supportability requirements have been satisfactorily accomplished or fully defined in the SS. This includes a detailed plan to achieve full materiel release prior to FRP decision. c. Prior to milestone B— (1) Designate an ILS manager (ILSM) to participate in pre-milestone B activities with the CBTDEV. (2) Lead the development of the initial SS, and update the SS throughout the life-cycle.

(3) Conduct appropriate supportability analyses with the CBTDEV (4) Participate in the development of the capabilities documents, and prepare or review all other acquisition program documentation to ensure that all logistics support considerations are adequately defined. (5) Serve on SIPTs chaired by the CBTDEV. (6) Prepare, submit and obtain approval of a type I BCA that outlines the requirements and functions of the system and determine whether the system should be developed using PBL criteria. d. Designate an ILSM to lead the SIPT (at milestone B or when the PM is appointed, if earlier, in accordance with AR 70–1) in the continued refinement and implementation of the SS.

The ILSM will establish or assume the chair of the SIPT at that time. The ILSM will also serve as the MANPRINT manager. e. Ensure that supply chain management principles are considered in the ILS process and supportability analyses. f. Ensure that PBL is considered as a support alternative and used if it is determined to be economically and operationally feasible. g. Ensure that supportability issues and concerns are identified and corrected during testing prior to initial system fielding; and ensure that deficiencies discovered during and after initial fielding are corrected. h.

Coordinate materiel fielding requirements with the supporting Life Cycle Management Command (LCMC)/ Logistics Support Activity (LOGSA) to ensure that items required to support system fielding will be available at the time and place agreed upon with the gaining ACOM/ASCC/DRUs (see AR 700–142). i. Ensure the key logistics design criteria, such as system reliability, maintainability, and supportability meet the system thresholds and are focused on minimizing the logistics footprint of the system. This is critical during the initial system architecture trade off analysis. j.

Ensure tradeoffs are evaluated, supportability is co-equal to cost, performance, and schedule during the develop- ment and execution of the system acquisition process. Ensure tradeoffs are documented throughout the acquisition process. k. Ensure that ILS support planning, design influence to include supportability, environmental engineering, and MANPRINT engineering performance and attributes are critical criteria within the system engineering tradeoff analysis and incorporated during the system engineering and addressed during materiel system design reviews. l.

Coordinate supportability, sustainment and environmental planning, requirements, studies, analyses, and imple- mentation with the ASA (I&E), US Army Environmental Command, CBTDEV, COE, Army logistician, trainer, testers, independent evaluators, and those in supporting commands and other applicable military services and agencies, to include the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). m. Coordinate the development and update of the support facilities annex to the SS with the COE. n. Use standard Army systems to collect and maintain logistics data regarding similar systems for use by SIPT participants in performing supportability analyses.

The Logistics Integrated Warehouse (LIW) is the authoritative source for all logistics data and is available at https://www.logsa.army.mil. Ensure SIPT members have access to contractor data to perform these analyses. o. Ensure the System Training Plan (STRAP) is initiated in accordance with AR 350–38. p. Prepare and coordinate interservice support agreements, initiate depot program initiation requirements, and determine whether the materiel system has a mobilization or surge requirement and document in the SS, Performance Based Agreements (PBAs), and other program management documentation. q. Obtain funds necessary to identify, acquire, and implement the SS.

If necessary, determine the effects of reduced funds on achieving projected system readiness levels, Life-Cycle Costs (LCC) goals, and overall supportability program execution. r. Ensure supportability is evaluated and that the acquisition program provides sufficient materiel system prototypes 4 AR 700–127 • 27 September 2007
