Updates to 21 Sep 09 CONOPS Menu and Source Verified List • Changes: Recent, pending, and proposed • Working on final updates • Will be available to all once complete HOWEVER…
End to End CONOPS Menu Scrub • Scheduled for early Dec • Last scrub June 2008 • Recent, pending, and proposed changes • Prime Vendor changes • Afghanistan only changes • Exceptions
Brief Recap of Process for Changes • Item identified- typically unit driven • Showing/cutting at ARCENT- approx. monthly • ARCENT (FWD) FSMB & JCCoE approval • JCCoE submits memo to DLA-TS who informs SPV • SPV obtains pricing and submits to DLA-TS for F&R • If F&R approved, SPV places order • Product ships to AOR *Note: For replacement items, old product will need to be used up first
Initial Demand vs. Actual Demand • Initial demand: Determined/calculated by JCCoE in coordination with ARCENT, DLA-TS, and SPV • Initial demand consideration factors: headcount, short order vs. main line, complete entrée or part of entrée, popularity of item and other entrées/items • Actual demand: Determined by Prime Vendors based upon product movement in theater
Possible Reasons for Slow Product Movement • Failure to match recipe cards in AFMIS to the correct product • Failure of DFAC managers to follow menu • Poor acceptability by diners
