It is designed to provide a readyreference of planned maintenance requirements for theworkcenter supervisor and should be retained in theworking area, near the Weekly PMS Schedule, in theholder provided.Maintenance Requirement Cards (MRCs)Maintenance Requirement Cards (MRCs) (fig. 7-4)provide the detailed procedures used to perform amaintenance action and state who is to perform themaintenance and what is to be done, and when, how,and with what resources a specific requirement is to beaccomplished.MRCscontainthefollowinginformation and instructions:SHIPSYSTEM,SYSTEM,SUBSYSTEM,EQUIPMENT.—Theseblockscontainstheidentification of the ship system (functional group),system, subsystem, or equipment involved.MRC CODE.—The MRC code consists of twoparts. The first part of the MRC code is the MIP seriescode. MRCs applicable to more than one MIP serieswill have each MIP series entered in this block. If morethan four MIP series apply, reference will be made to anote in the Procedure block. The second part is themaintenance requirement periodicity code. The onlyauthorized periodicities are listed in Table 7-1.The periodicity code also includes a number forspecific identification. When more than one MRC ofthe same periodicity exists in the same MRC set, theMRCs, in most cases, will be numbered consecutively;for example, D-1, D-2, D-3, or M-1, M-2, M-3. Anexisting MRC may be reapplied to a revised MIP eventhough the periodicity code of the reapplied MRC maynot fall within the normally sequential numericperiodicity codes. For example, W-1, W-2, W-3, andW-6 may appear on a MIP, since W-6 was an existingMRC that was reapplied to this equipment. Technically,valid MRCs will not be reprinted merely to change theperiodicity code number. Nonsequential numbers willnot affect scheduling or management control.Dual periodicity codes are used when con-figurations or utility differences of a permanent natureexistbetweeninstallationsofthesamesystem/equipment. A dual periodicity may be assignedif no other aspect of the MRC requires modification tofit both periodicities. For example, equipment installedin an SSN or in a surface unit may see daily use, whilethe same equipment installed in an SSBN may be idlefor long periods of time because of the nature of theship's mission. This long period of idleness may resultinlessfrequentlyperformedmaintenancerequirements. In this case a dual periodicity, such asM-1/Q-I or Q-1/S-2, may be assigned. When dualperiodicities are assigned a note on the MIP and theMRC will specify the frequency of maintenance, forexample, "NOTE: SSBN, schedule quarterly; all othersschedule monthly." The unrequired periodicity shouldbe deleted by having a line drawn through it.7-5
