This is a Data Item Description (DID) document titled "Production Surge Plan" with identification number DI-MGMT-80969, approved on February 14, 2019, and maintained by the Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR) in the Army Ammunition Command/Force Development (A/AMOCM/FD).

The Production Surge Plan delineates a contractor's capability to rapidly accelerate and sustain production utilizing existing facilities and equipment in a peacetime acquisition environment without declaring war or mobilization. The plan applies to contracts requiring production surge capability for select critical items. The document establishes specific preparation instructions and content requirements for contractors to submit. The plan must include: the maximum sustainable production rate with a production buildup schedule by month until achieving the maximum rate, incorporating subcontractor and vendor capacity assessments with vertical planning verification; two lists identifying subcontracted and non-subcontracted items/components by nomenclature, part number, and leadtime, including long-leadtime, critical, or pacing items that could adversely impact production, with subcontractor identification by name and address; and a list of Government contracts at the contractor's facility with production surge provisions, including contract numbers, items, and Defense Materials System and Defense Priorities Systems priorities. Additional required elements include impact analysis on other Government contracts, identification of additional skilled labor requirements, a list of strategic or critical materials and precious metals with quantities, costs, and rolling inventory requirements, and a list of production equipment and tooling with estimated cost increases or leadtime reductions to achieve at least 10 percent surge production rate increase within current facility limitations. This DID supersedes DI-P-1634A and is applicable for use independently or with, but not in lieu of, DI-P-7046 (Industrial Preparedness Planning Data).
