Consumables The requirements for consumables are derived from the applicable ARR for new aircraft/systems that meet the protect criteria. These requirements are provided to the operating site as recommended stock levels. The operating site will determine the final consumable requirement levels by comparing the recommended quantities to the levels previously established under the local demand-based procedures. FIXED ALLOWANCE VALIDATION The NAVICP-Phil will forward the fixed allowance review aids (FARA) to the operating site and TYCOM for review. Upon receipt of the review aids, validate the preliminary fixed allowance. In validation, use the latest 12 months of local 3-M data and the computation formula in enclosure 2 of FASOINST 4441.16. Recommended changes to the fixed allowance must be supported by updating the FARA supplement with local 3-M data, separating BCMs by category. Return the updated FARA supplement to NAVICP-Phil including the period of 3-M data used. The NAVICP-Phil will use the updated FARA supplement to recompute the fixed allowances and determine the final allowance quantity. EXECUTION OF SHORCAL After the allowance determination process, NAVICP-Phil will load the planned program requirements (PPRs) for new fixed allowances to the planned program file (PPF). The NAVICP-Phil loads the PPR by using document identifier BPR (for TIR sites) or 501 (for non-TIR sites). The final SHORCAL products are forwarded by NAVICP-Phil to the operating site and the TYCOM. the final products are transmitted to the operating site 83 days after the date when NAVICP-Phil forwarded the preliminary products. After receiving the final products, the operating site must remove the old allowances and load the new fixed allowances. Operating sites must submit newly established or increased fixed allowances to NAVICP-Phil. The requisitions must cite advice code SD and fund code QZ for 7R Cog items and fund code 26 for 1R Cog items. Submit a separate requisition for each 7R Cog item. Submit a cancellation request for all outstanding requisitions that are confirmed excess to the new fixed allowances. Return excess 7R Cog items by using document identifier D6_, fund code QZ, management code C, and project code RDE to the nearest wholesale activity. Refer to FASOINST 4441.16 for additional information concerning SHORCAL, Splinter SHORCAL, and SASS. COMPUTATION OF FIXED ALLOWANCE The quantity of an activity’s fixed allowance of aviation material is set and changed only by NAVICP-Phil. The requirements for fixed allowance are determined by the sum of attrition and local repair cycle requirements (LRCRs). The fixed allowance may also include funded additives such as the supplemental support requirements. The Maintenance and Material Management (3-M) Systems data is used in determining the fixed allowance requirements of the activity. The 3-M systems data period must be the most current 12 months. In the case of new system(s) or aircraft on station for less than 1 year, a minimum of 6 months of 3-M data is used. The retail levels in support of aircraft on board carriers are derived on a community basis. This data is overlaid into the preliminary AVCAL output products as the baseline tailored fixed allowance (BLTFA), subject to negotiations during the AQRC, The collective experience for BCM, repair, and TAT of the sites that constitute the carrier community is applied in the calculation of the BLTFA. Usage data from the carrier undergoing re-AVCAL is always applied in the calculation of the BLTFA. ATTRITION QUANTITY Attrition requirements are determined from the site’s BCM actions. Activities may approximate the attrition requirements for the purpose of allowance change request-fixeed (ACR-F) by using the BCM rate computation. Compute the raw attrition quantity according to FASOINST 4441.15 or FASOINST 4441.16. LOCAL REPAIR CYCLE REQUIREMENT (LRCR) QUANTITY The operating site may simulate the LRCR determination for the purpose of ACR-F submission and allowance negotiations by using the activity’s constrained TAT. The following principles apply in determining LRCR levels: 4-26
