Military Handbook. Guidelines for the Implementation of the DoD Parts Control Program

Abstract

This handbook has been prepared as a guide for the implementation of the Department of Defense (DoD) Parts control Program (PCP) and is intended for use as a reference book by the military departments and other Government agencies (hereafter referred to as Government components) and associated contractors. It is structured specifically for use by program managers and project engineers in the selection and identification of applicable PCP requirements. The handbook contains detailed information, suggested approaches, and examples to assist in determining appropriate PCP requirements on a contract-by-contract basis. This handbook is to be used by the Government components in applying the PCP to 'contracts for major weapon systems, end-items of equipment where logistics support is required, and in which acquisition managers foresee appreciable life cycle cost savings'. It will be used to identify the various conditions and elements that should be considered for tailoring and applying MIL-STD-965 requirements to specific acquisitions. Also this handbook is to assist in the accomplishment of the major objectives of the PCP and in the establishment of methods, such as reviews, audits, and reports, that may be sued to assure conformity with the contractual PCP requirements.
