CLASS V(W) Conventional Ground Ammunition (300 + Items)JP 1-02 munition — “A complete device charged with explosives, propellants, pyrotechnics, initiating composition, or nuclear, biological, or chemical material for use in military

operations, including demolitions.”

COMMODITY PERSPECTIVE

• Accounted for as “Non-Expendable Items” - MCO P4400.150E• Degradation impacts - Extensive maintenance & surveillance efforts• Thousands of NSN’s w/individual Lots per configuration

- each all-up configuration has numerous LOT data points:

• Hundreds of Thousands of Trackable Data Points !!

• All Up Configuration: DODIC: MN79 (APOBS) w/NSN/LOT

Motor: NSN/LOT #

Packaging: NSN/LOT#

DetCord: NSN/LOT #

Fuze : NSN/LOT#

Grenade: NSN/LOT #

• Numerous “Serialized Items”

COMMODITY PERSPECTIVE

• Total Munitions Requirement (TMR)• DIRECTED by DoDI 3000.4/MCO 8000.8 - Munitions Requirements Process

• EXECUTED by Logistics Integration Division, Capabilities Development Directorate, MCCDC

• MODELED based on scenario durations and MCO end-states identified by the DPG, COCOM determined targets, and Marine Forces input.

• WAR RESERVE MUNITIONS REQUIREMENT (WRMR)• Combat Requirement (CR) - The quantity of munitions required to equip a specified force structure to its designated military capability and to meet Combatant Commander’s objectives, including munitions needed for overlap.• Current Operations/Forward Presence Requirement (CO/FPR)- The sum of munitions required to arm forces to conduct current operations and meet forward presence obligations in accordance with the DPG. Forward presence includes Global Naval Force Presence Policy and operations that the National Command Authority (NCA) directs.• Strategic Readiness Requirement (SRR) - The quantity of munitions needed to arm forces not committed to support combat operations in the assigned MTW’s as well as those in the strategic reserve. It also includes any additional munitions requirements generated from treaties or statutory obligations to allies.

• TESTING and TRAINING REQUIREMENT (TTR)• Testing (T) - Surveillance, acceptance testing and production losses of munition items are accounted for in this category.

• Training (TR) - Munitions required to train forces and support Service programs ensuring that weapons and platforms deliver the intended effectiveness (can be stated as an annual requirement, a Future Years Defense Program (FYDP) requirement, and/or projected life cycle of each munition)

Sponsored by: Program Manager, Ammunition Marine Corps Systems Command

Welcome to the Marine Corps Munitions Readiness Reporting (MRR) system. This site is established under the authority derived from "Marine Corps Order 4000 - Marine Corps Total Life Cycle Management" which assigns the Program Manager, Ammunition (PM Ammo) of the Marine Corps Systems Command the program management functions of effective acquisition and sustainment throughout the munitions lifecycle, as well as those Class V(W) Inventory Control Point (ICP) functions normally assigned to Marine Corps Logistics Command.

This readiness site serves to address the requirements established by Department of Defense Directive (DODD) 7730.65 - DOD Readiness Reporting System as well as compliancy with Implementing Action 3.1.5 of PM Ammo's FY06-FY11 Strategic Plan. MRR also leverages off the USMC "Marine Corps Equipment Readiness Information Tool (MERIT)", providing a similar "MUNITIONS" readiness snapshot and drill down capability. MRR is the key metric for USMC Conventional Ammunition readiness. It is a relatively simple metric to measure but, one of the most complex to understand. Hundreds of data elements influence MRR which attempts to convey an accurate readiness portfolio for USMC conventional ammunition. Readiness is the universal measure of the preparedness of an organizational entity. As such, MRR provides a total view of the Marine Corps Class V(W) Readiness posture.

Most importantly, MRR supports PM Ammo, our Marine Force Commanders, Supporting establishment, and Higher Headquarters with clear visibility of readiness trends, revealing potential problems, associated causes and business case defense for corrective actions.

“People, Process, and Product!”

Business Improvements

We will provide quality munitions to our Marine Forces via modernization, technology, stockpile surveillance, and

collaboration with our suppliers and partners,

We will minimize the logistical footprint, strategic lift and associated costs by optimally positioning ground ammunition assets for both peacetime training and wartime support of

Marine Forces globally,

We will strive to maintain optimum inventory accuracy and total munitions asset visibility,

We will comply with legal, environmental, and safety regulations pertaining to ammunition, and…

We will always execute our mission in the utmost professional manner commensurate with Marine Corps and Marine Corps

Systems Command core values.

Summary

“There are many classes of supply and ours, inherently unique by nature, is the last in terms of use by our Corps. That does not mean last in importance, priority, or criticality to the combat arm of this institution we support. Rather, despite any other commodity, the vehicles, weapons systems, the clothing and equipment, the deliberate planning; despite the mass movement of our Marines, the P-O-L, communication equipment, spare parts, subsistence, etc, ammunition IS the last stage in the war fight. It is that which directly destroys the enemy combatant. Thus it represents the finality of all the preceding events leading up to its use.”

(PM Ammo Strategic Plan)

Ammunition…that which makes the tip of the spear, pointy and lethal”
