  • Description

    Description
    There is no priority system within M&U and Warehouse to differentiate orders placed. Build a priority system to allow manager/supervisors to prioritize orders made in M&U through Warehouse

    Recommended
    Create a system in M&U and Warehouse to allow technicians to prioritize orders.

    • Priority 1: Emergency
    • Priority 2: Critical
    • Priority 3: Routine
    • Priority 4: Deferred

    Build a priority box into the Parts Tab in the Sub Work Order with a drop down menu containing the above priority levels. Priority level needs to start in M&U and reflect in both M&U and Warehouse through out the entire requisition, replenishment  and receiving/approving processes and then back to M&U through the maintenance issue process.

    Mission Critical
    Mandated. IAW 5.15. General Information. A NMCS condition starts extraordinary supply action by Materiel Control. 5.17.4. The VFM/VMS makes a policy on which MICAP and NMCS conditions they want briefed on and how often. Also, set up a general procedure as to what is unsatisfactory status, thus requiring more action.

    Benefits
    Prioritizing orders will reduce the time required for vehicles with higher maintenance priorities to receive the parts needed, while avoiding vehicles with lower priorities from being worked first. While reducing time, this SCR will also enable supervisors and technicians to improve the accountability of parts ordered and help achieve better financial reporting by improving accuracy of information provided/extracted from the system.
