E N D
Approved DLMS ChangeADC 217 • PDC 217, identifies new passive RFID (pRFID) discrepancy codes in the packaging/marking (P300) series • Used to identify discrepant, missing pRFID on material, and to identify reader problems/issues which interfere with pRFID processing by DOD receiving organizations • Supports monitoring of vendor performance • Requires contract clauses for pRFID and for WAWF receiving report in accordance with DoD policy • Requires prepositioned materiel receipt (PMR) “pRFID Required Flag” • Pending ERP capability, DAAS assigns flag by contract year for DLA implementation (March 2008) • ADC 297, pRFID-Required Exclusion Table for DLMS 527D PMR • Fine tunes DAAS criteria allowing exclusions e.g. waivers, for selected contractors and types of contracting vehicles
Approved DLMS ChangeADC 217, continued • DLA flooded with pRFID SDRs: 1606 during March 2009 • P314 tag missing 8,863 • P315 tag visibly damaged & unreadable 453 • P316 tag present but unreadable (not visibility damaged) 501 • P317 no corresponding ASN 6,783 • P318 duplicates previously used tag ID 6 • DLA study to determine root cause of high volume - preliminary findings: • DoD AIT implementation issues • pRFID requirement documentation is confusing to suppliers • Suppliers have difficulty finding pRFID documentation
Approved DLMS ChangeADC 217, continued • DLA issues • Invalid SDR reports from depots • Imprecise RFID business rules implementation in DLA • Multiple SDRs reports against a single delivery • Supplier issues • Disregard of requirement • WAWF manual data-entry issues • Receiving Report/Advance Shipment Notice (ASN) submitted after shipment • DCMA issues • Delay in releasing ASN for origin acceptance, shipment reaches depot prior to transaction
Approved DLMS ChangeADC 217, continued • Preliminary recommendations • Provide suppliers with easily understandable RFID requirements summary • Establish time requirement for submission of ASN • Contract requirement and/or DFARS update • Conduct in-situ test of RFID process • Test end-to-end process and assess RFID enterprise efficacy • Track select packages and associated data flow in WAWF, DSS, and EBS from supplier to final destination • Compare package status/location to ASN data flow • Assess timeliness and accuracy of data transfer between WAWF, DSS, and EBS
Approved DLMS ChangeADC 217, continued • Request RFID Tag vendors include “RFID” Acronym on Tags • Resolve reporting incongruities between depots • Assess receiving dock operations • Assess training program • Dispel ‘urban legend’ that ‘common carriers’ are routinely removing RFID tags
