Expedited Return of Major Item Excess

Abstract

Certain major items require that technical inspection documentation accompany Reports of Excess. Since these inspection reports have not been automated for transmission through AUTODIN, they must be mailed with the corresponding Report of Excess. This necessitates time consuming off-line processing at the Materiel Readiness Command (MRC) and circumvents receipt by the Logistics Control Activity. Two major recommendations are made in this study. The first describes a method to transfer inspection data by automated means and the second a change in procedures at one MRC. Benefits of the two recommendations are based upon a selected sample of Line Item Numbers. (Author)
