Is there an applicable torque for something determined to be “loose”?

What is a gouge ?

How is “legible” defined? By each inspector?

What is “delamination”?

What does “deformed” mean?

What is considered “degraded”?

Is temporary repair allowed?

Is there a strength requirement for determining if a door is “seized’?

How is a “twist” measured?

What is an “abrasion”?

Does a “warp” have a measurement?

CONTAINER INSPECTION

18

DOD maintenance done via units, installations, or central programs• CSC inspections are done globally at hundreds of locations

DOD’s MIL-STD-3037 dated 27 January 2017• Effectively replaces MIL-HDBK-138B

Periodic inspection vs. continuous examination programs Commercial standards (CIC, IICL…) vs MIL-STD-3037 Tolerances Inspector judgment Cargo worthy grade vs Ammo grade

IICL-6 “there are damage conditions that are impossible to unambiguously standardize”

DOD CONTAINER MANAGEMENT BENEFITS

19

Management at ALL levels ensures:

Units are ready to deploy Cargo not frustrated

(*due to containers)

No injuries or fatalities(*due to containers)

Procurements, Leases are:• Done only as needed• Lowest possible cost• Compliant with US law

Ammunition can be shipped on demand and safely

Minimal detention costs Cost effective transportation

solutions Property is accounted for Efficient loading and movement at

time of need Safe, effective, efficient

maintenance Containers are an asset, not a

burden

(SOME) LESSONS LEARNED

23

Policy and regulations, contracts are the foundation for enduring improvement

Collect all data possible Cannot make decisions or influence behavior without data – you

can’t manage what you can’t see Automation is key, but can’t resolve everything Leader emphasis is as important as training Consistent engagement needed at all levels Container management is not just a wartime task Critical during peacetime; always be ready for the next fight

(SOME) OPPORTUNITIES FOR IMPROVEMENT

24

Consistency and volume of container reporting Automated asset visibility

Automation supporting field users Automation improving data quality System-supported process oversight Steady funding and regular investment in fleet Data uniformity/integrity across DOD User knowledge base 100% adherence to regulations and common procedures Communication, collaboration between DOD container managers

DOD cannot effectively accomplish its mission without containers

DOD has a robust container management program

• We’ve made progress but there’s work to be done

Embrace change; system, processes enhancements

Leader emphasis is key!

Inventory reporting needs to improve

Readiness! #1 purpose of DOD’s containers: support rapid deployment and sustainment of the force
