  Description
  Vehicle Management Matériel Controls (MatCons) are required to pull information regarding parts ordered, due-ins and back orders. Asset Id, Requisition Status, Parts Cost, Work Order State Code and Location are paramount for retrieving part inquiries, accurate inventory and supplying high visibility reports. This information cannot be retrieved from warehouse as of today. Recommend adding the Asset Id Information, Requisition Status, Cost and Location to the Work Order Inquiry.

  Recommended
  Recommend adding the Asset Id Information, Requisition Status, Parts Cost, Work Order State Code and Location to the Work Order Inquiry Grid Options. Add Asset Id to Work Order Inquiry Search Criteria.

  Mission Critical
  Mandated by Air Force Instruction 24-302.  Air Force MatCon sections require a very detailed process to track, account and issue vehicle parts. See AFI 24-302 references below

  • 5.2.1. Keep FM&A and key personnel informed of overall supply situation as it affects the shop.
  • 5.2.6. Check daily and verify the need and status of parts for all NMCS (vehicles down for parts) vehicles.
  • 5.2.7. Check, verify and re-validate all parts requirements on delayed AF Form 1823/-1.
    Inform the FM&A Workload Controller of their status, as directed by the VFM/VMS.
  • 5.2.23. Perform monthly or quarterly (as directed by VFM/VMS) AF Form 1823/-1 backorder validation with FM&A.

  Benefits
  Adding all information requested above to the Work order inquiry will enable MatCon personnel, technicians and Fleet Managers to have direct access to this critical information. Added information allows Fleet Managers to approve or disapprove requisitions based on priorities assigned to those assets. Further more, it will lead to enhanced supply discipline as mandated in AFI 23-101, Air Force Matériel Management. 

  Users
  This added information will help not only Air Force Materiel Control operations but also all organizations which use the Maintenance Issue process in coordination with the M&U module.
