RMKS/1. THIS IS A COORDINATED CMC/COMMARCORSYSCOM MARADMIN. THE
PURPOSE IS TO SOLICIT PARTICIPATION IN THE SUBJECT SURVEYS FROM AIS
FUNCTIONAL USERS/SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS (SME’S) AND FROM SYSTEM
PROGRAM MANAGERS/MAINTAINERS.
2. BACKGROUND. THE GOAL OF SRAC IS TO ELIMINATE LOGISTICS
INFORMATION SYSTEMS THAT PROVIDE REDUNDANT AND OVERLAPPING
CAPABILITIES ACROSS THE FUNCTIONAL LOGISTICS DOMAINS OF
TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION, SUPPLY
(INCLUDING AVIATION GROUND SUPPORT), MAINTENANCE, ENGINEERING
(OPERATING FORCES-DEPLOYED AND SUPPORTING ESTABLISHMENT-FACILITIES),
HEALTH SERVICES, AND ACQUISITION. SRAC IS AN INTEGRATED EFFORT OF
FUNCTIONAL LOG REPS FROM THE OPERATING FORCES, HQMC, MCCDC, SYSCOM,
MATCOM AND LOGBASES WHO WILL ASSIST THE SYSCOM PROGRAM MANAGER
INFORMATION SYSTEMS (PM IS) IN PRODUCING A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
3. INFORMATION:
A. SRAC IS DEPENDENT UPON A STRONG STRATEGIC ALLIANCE ACROSS
ALL AREAS OF LOGISTICS, INCLUDING THE OPERATING FORCES, SUPPORTING
ESTABLISHMENT, FUNCTIONAL ADVOCATES, AND SYSTEM DEVELOPERS/
MAINTAINERS. PHASE 3 OF THE SRAC PROCESS REQUIRES A MORE DETAILED
EVALUATION OF HIGH VALUE AIS'S TO AID IN DEVELOPMENT OF MIGRATION/
INTEGRATION PLANS. WORKSHOP PARTICIPANTS MAPPED EACH MAINTENANCE AIS
TO A LEVEL OF DETAIL NECESSARY FOR ACCURATE AIS FUNCTIONAL COMPARISON.
WE ARE NOW AT A POINT WHERE WE NEED USER FEEDBACK AT ALL LEVELS, FROM
SYSTEM USERS/SME'S TO PROVIDE THE PERSPECTIVE AN OPERATOR PROVIDES AND
FROM SYSTEM PROGRAM MANAGERS/MAINTAINERS TO PROVIDE THE TECHNICAL
CHARACTERISTICS.
B. THE MAINTENANCE DOMAIN WILL UTILIZE A WEB-BASED TOOL FOR SYSTEM
USERS/SME’S AND SPREADSHEETS FOR SYSTEM PROGRAM MANAGERS/MAINTAINERS
TO CONDUCT THE SURVEYS.
4. ACTION:
A. REQUEST ASSISTANCE IN NOTIFICATION AND PARTICIPATION IN THE SRAC
SURVEY OF MAINTENANCE DOMAIN SYSTEMS FROM SYSTEM USERS/SME’S AND
SYSTEM PROGRAM MANAGERS/MAINTAINERS, AS APPLICABLE. AT A MINIMUM,
DESIRED PARTICIPATION IS ONE USER/SME PER MAINTENANCE ACTIVITY IN THE
FOLLOWING AREAS OF EXPERTISE: MAINT MGMT, UTILITIES MAINT, ENGR
MAINT, ORD MAINT, COMM-ELECT MAINT, and MT MAINT FOR EACH ORGANIZATION
- BATTALION/ SQUADRON LEVEL AND ABOVE.
B. SURVEY INSTRUCTIONS, WEB URL LOCATION, AND SPREADSHEETS WILL BE
DISSEMINATED VIA SEPCOR (E-MAIL) TO MAJOR SUBORDINATE COMMANDS BY THE
POC LISTED IN PAR. 5, BELOW ON/ABOUT 9 OCT 01. ALL MAINTENANCE DOMAIN
SYSTEMS SURVEYS MUST BE COMPLETED BY ALCON NLT 26 OCT 01.
5. POC FOR THE MAINTENANCE DOMAIN IS MAJ SCOTT E.YOST USMC, HQMC
