Downloaded from https://www.everyspec.com training requirements needed for the fielding. The supportability assessment will identify any shortages or shortcom- ings. The reports from the Logistics Information Warehouse, previous coordination checklists and reports, and subse- quent corrective and preparatory actions (consideration of all logistics elements) will be used to determine total system supportability. c. Final details for deprocessing, inventory, and fielding will be agreed on prior to moving the materiel to staging or fielding sites. d.

Follow-on Joint supportability assessments will occur annually (or at the request of the gaining organization) for assessments with identified shortages/shortcomings to update the status of the total system supportability. 5–18. Fielding requirements in total package fielding Fielding procedures will vary based on the level of system complexity and category of TPF. Fielding requirements will be identified and coordinated in the MON/MFP and MFA and during fielding coordination meetings. The fielding and GC will coordinate and agree on the fielding command MFT requirement (whether MFT is required or not).

Subsequent coordination will specify the detailed materiel, personnel, TMDE, STTE, and facility requirements to be provided by the fielding and GCs. The entire fielding process will often have three distinct steps consisting of deprocessing, inventory, and hand over (see DA Pam 700–142 for detailed instructions). 5–19. Total program fielding staging sites a. Defense Logistics Agency is responsible for control, operation, funding, and work loading of CONUS DLA central unit materiel fielding points (UMFP) and staging sites, but not the functions of NET, deprocessing, and fielding.

(1) Defense Logistics Agency responsibility for TPF central staging sites applies to CONUS depots used as UMFPs and staging sites only and does not encompass OCONUS or staging sites controlled by gaining GCs. (2) For COMSEC devices, the sole authorized TPF central staging site will be Tobyhanna Army Depot, COMSEC Division, Building 73 (W81U11). OCONUS fielding requirements must be coordinated with the appropriate OCONUS AMC AFSB. b. The PMs will provide the TPF systems plan (January and July each year) to each GC and CONUS staging site. OCONUS AFSBs will be provided system information for all OCONUS staging site requirements.

This will identify what is coming, when, how many, and the shipping weights and dimensions. Depot maintenance or supply support requirements (Government or contractor) must be coordinated with the appropriate AMC LCMC or DLA headquarters for utilization of existing depot facilities. Additional facility requirements for contractor maintenance and supply support that cannot be satisfied within existing facilities are the responsibility of the PM. OCONUS AFSBs will be queried for depot level maintenance and supply support before separate facilities are established. c.

The PM will coordinate with the GC and the OCONUS materiel fielding coordinator to identify which existing OCONUS facility will be used. d. Storage and shipping depots will ship vehicles in a ready-for-use condition directly to the staging site. End items located at storage depots or vendor’s facilities will not be shipped to the UMFP for consolidation with the package. Shipment of these items will be coordinated by the fielding command to ensure their arrival at the staging site to meet established fielding dates. 5–20. Program manager total package fielding responsibilities a.

The PMs responsible for TPF will— (1) Prepare, coordinate, revise, approve, and implement the plans (MON and/or MFP), schedules, and agreements (MFA) needed for materiel fielding in accordance with the latest HQDA-approved BOIP/TOE. (2) Coordinate with the CBTDEV, supporting commands, and project managers to identify the total materiel, facility, personnel, and training requirements in the MFP. Coordinate with other materiel developers to ensure that separately fielded support items such as TMDE and COMSEC can meet fielding milestones. (a) Coordinate TMDE materiel with PM TMDE. (b) Coordinate TPF for COMSEC systems/devices and associated NET with USACSLA.

(3) Provide each draft and the final of the MON, MFP, MSP, MRL, and MFA to the appropriate TPF/TAFS administrator to input to the TAFS Web site. (4) Coordinate total materiel, facility, personnel, and training requirements with the GC to assure GC preparedness. Determine the authorized end item increases and initial issue materiel to support the fielding. (5) Program and budget funds to accomplish all scheduled TPF, including deprocessing and fielding.

(6) For the initial 2 budget years from FUE in the GC, program, budget, and fund chemical materiel (Class III), medical materiel (Class VIII), and items that are system peculiar to support the fielding as well as second-destination transportation charges. (If TSG is the fielder, TSG will provide Class VIII.). The PM may directly fund the GC. b. For conventional ammunition items only, the PM will— (1) Ensure ammunition requirements are identified in the MFP. (2) Coordinate with the appropriate GC to verify that the sub allocations cover training and initial issue, and CTA 50–909 quantities. 34 AR 700–142 • 26 March 2008
