The ammunition data card serves as a “birth certificate” for the lot. It gives all the details of the manufactured lot at fingertips. It is used for malfunction investigation and ammunition reclassification. Incorrect or incomplete information on ADC’s come down to a safety issue.

The ammunition data card is not intended to identify specific shipments within a given lot.

* Denotes fields not required for CAD/PAD ** Ammunition data cards that are “PA” do not require a shipped date (Only “AC” ammunition data cards after NAVSUP lot release letter)

Abbreviations: LB = pounds, GR = grains, GM = grams, AR = as required

Difference between the FAT and/or LAT and production lot ADC – The only difference between the FAT and/or LAT and production lot ADC should be the disposition line from “PA” to “AC;” unless there are rejected serial numbers, request for variances (RFVs) and minor corrections that need to be added in the appropriate sections.

Explosive Subassemblies – Cartridges, initiators, etc. that are manufactured by a sub-vendor/subcontractor shall have full traceability.

The prime contractor shall be held responsible for traceability of all piece parts associated with the build. Traceability shall be provided as one of the following options:

1. The prime contractor can provide the full breakdown listing of all piece parts that comprises the explosive subassembly. The listing shall include the part/drawing numbers, revisions, manufacturer names, lot/batch numbers, quantities and dates of man-ufacture. The prime contractor shall enter the listing information into the components section of the end item ADC.

2. The prime contractor can enter the explosive subassembly as a single line on the ADC for the end item. The listing shall include the part/drawing number, revision, manufacturer name, lot/batch number, quantity and date of manufacture of the explosive subassembly. The prime contractor shall retain a copy of the full breakdown listing of the explosive subassembly for their records and be made available upon request by the Government.

ATTACHMENT 2

USAF & USN CAD/PAD STATEMENT OF WORK - AMMUNITION DATA CARDS

January, 2018

1. Ammunition Data Cards (ADC) shall be prepared in accordance with MIL-STD-1168 (current revision) and shall follow the format required by the application identified as Worldwide

Ammunition-data Repository Program (WARP). All of the requirements of MIL-STD-1168 apply but some are tailored in accordance with MIL-STD-962 to meet CAD/PAD program requirements as listed below.

2. The criteria and procedures for the assignment of lot numbers for energetic materials

(pyrotechnics, propellants, explosives) including their constituents shall be in accordance with

MIL-STD-1168.

3. All energetic materials (pyrotechnics, propellants, explosives) used in assemblies and sub-assemblies/components (i.e., igniter cartridges, delay elements, primer assemblies, explosive cord, etc.) shall be entered in the ADC using the common name, actual/original manufacturer’s part number & revision, lot number, and date of manufacture. Traceability shall be ensured by the original manufacturer’s documentation such as Certificate of Conformance (COC), Certificate of Analysis (COA), Quality Assurance Record (QAR) Quality Inspection Record (QIR), Quality

Assurance Documents (QAD), Batch Record, or other equivalent documentation that would provide positive traceability in the event of a future product recall.

4. The contractor may list their own internal part number for energetic material that they re-designate or re-characterize but must also list the actual manufacturer’s part number, lot number, and date of manufacture in parentheses in a format that is searchable in WARP. Any

GFM/GFP provided under contract to the vendor should retain government provided part/lot numbers and nomenclature to retain traceability. Ingredients which are used to synthesize or that are blended in a process to make the end item energetic material are not required to be listed. Examples of blended or synthesized energetic materials that shall be listed are HNS, Lead

Azide, BKNO3, ZPP, HES 8028, etc. If the ages of energetic materials are older than the ages specified on the Airmunitions Specification or as specified elsewhere in the contract at the time the CAD/PAD devices become hermetically sealed, the date of energetic material recertification or any associated approved Request for Variance (RFV) shall be notated in the waivers and deviation description section.

5. Hardware components shall be fully traceable and identified by the original manufacturer’s lot identification information/documentation or qualified distributor’s documentation such as

Certificate of Conformance (COC), Certificate of Analysis (COA), Quality Assurance Record

(QAR), Batch Record, or other equivalent documentation that would provide positive traceability in the event of a future product recall. The actual date of manufacture is not required for any non-age degradable materials such as metal housings, tubes, sleeves, firing pins, nuts, bolts, washers, etc. The COC, COA, QAR, or Batch Record date(s) may be used for the DOM. Epoxies, sealants, curative, O-rings, and other organic materials shall be fully traceable to OEM with

DOM and traceable via the original manufacturer’s lot identification documentation such as

Certificate of Conformance (COC), Certificate of Analysis (COA), Quality Assurance Record

(QAR) Batch Record, or other equivalent documentation that would provide positive traceability in the event of a future product recall. Materials or components that do not affect the reliability or safety of the end item (i.e., solvents, paints, lacquers, labels, dust caps, etc.) do not need to be listed on the ADC.

ATTACHMENT 2 (continued)

6. The ADC data and information entered in WARP for all materials and components ideally shall stand alone for traceability to the actual manufacture’s information (i.e. Mfg P/N, Mfg date (as applicable), Mfg lot number etc.). If contractor uses their own P/N, reference date for acceptance or other “trace”/traceability identification used internally for the non-critical piece parts/materials, it shall be noted in the remarks section, i.e. “trace ID, or PO used for the following piece parts: (parts shall identified/listed)”, provided the field/entry method is searchable in WARP. If traceability documentation is “questionable” or in conflict and needs clarification, the applicable engineer or equipment specialist shall be contacted to resolve any issues.

7. A “sample” ADC is generated in WARP the first time an ADC is submitted by the contractor for applicable government reviews and approvals. Upon approval of the sample ADC, a final version for each production lot shall be completed in WARP and uploaded for Invoicing, Receipt, Acceptance, and Property Transfer (iRAPT - formerly WAWF) for review and acceptance prior to shipment of product by the applicable government authority. The WARP ADC program will not allow the submission of additional ADCs until such time as the sample ADC has been approved in the system. The sample ADC does not require the use of a “Z” interfix number used to identify it as a sample.

8. If any unique situations exist that may conflict with compliance, a resolution should be proposed by the contractor prior to contract award to determine possible work-around.

9. A hard copy of the applicable ADC(s) shall also be included with each shipment per applicable

ADC CDRL.

WARP will reside within the Munitions History Program (MHP). Additional details on these WARP applications are provided below.

Worldwide Ammunition-data Repository Program (WARP)

An online user’s manual will provide additional help and criteria in the development of an ammunition data card. It is recommended that you download and read the user’s manual prior to creating and filling out your initial ammo data card. The user's manual also contains screen shots, which depict what the data entry person will see during the ADC input process.

Ammunition Data Card Input

ADC input allows current contractors and government facilities the capability to create, and submit for approval, both sample ADCs and production lot ADCs which meet the format requirements of MIL-STD-1168 and as specified in this SOW for ADCs. ADCs are automatically forwarded to the respective Government Agency Responsible for Acceptance (GARA). The GARA in most cases is the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) Quality Assurance Representative

(QAR), who reviews contractor input for accuracy and completeness, and after updating the disposition code for the specific lot, submits the ADC to the database. The contractor’s data entry person is granted access only to ADCs identified with its specific manufacturing code, as identified in

MIL-HDBK-1461, Manufacturer's Symbols. The use of previously inputted ADCs through the

TEMPLATE option significantly reduces input effort, while increasing accuracy and consistency of data.

Email Notification

WARP provides immediate, automated notification to process participants when actions are required. When the producer has completed an ADC submission, an email message is routed to the

GARA advising that an ADC awaits review and approval. If the GARA approves the ADC as submitted, the ADC is released to the WARP database and an email, with approved data card, is routed back to the originator. If the ADC requires modification or correction to conform with MIL-

STD-1168 and/or the approved format and technical content as approved by the government, an email is provided to the ADC originator advising that corrective action is required prior to approval.

Information Updates

It is important that the System Administrators are apprised when a producer receives a new contract. The producer shall notify usarmy.RIA.jmc.mbx.warp@mail.mil within 30 days after receipt of a new contract. Information to be included shall be the contract number, item, GARA, Manufacturer's identification symbol and the names of the individuals who will be inputting ADCs into the system. If you are a new producer and do not have a Manufacturer's identification symbol, you can obtain one by sending an email to usarmy.RIA.jmc.mbx.warp@mail.mil. The email must contain manufacturer's name, address where performance of the contract will take place, and a point of contact.

1. Purpose.

The Under Secretary of Defense has implemented policy requiring DoD components meeting the requirements identified in Figure 1 to be marked with Item Unique Identifiers (IUID). Cartridge Actuated Devices and Propellant Actuated Devices (CAD/PAD) items, regardless of dollar value, are typically serially managed in aircraft maintenance data systems and therefore are applicable to the IUID requirement.

Additionally, the Air Force Aircrew Escape System Executive Working Group (AESEWG) and the egress system maintenance community has requested that CAD/PAD items be marked with Data Matrix ECC 200 on item data plates or items to enhance accuracy of aircraft maintenance data.

In accordance with MIL-STD-130, this marking instruction identifies marking requirements that meet the above objectives by tailoring Unique Identification (UID) requirements to include aircraft maintenance data requirements for both free text Human Readable Information (HRI) and Machine Readable Information (MRI), which are both mandated requirements for CAD/PAD items.

Figure 1. Determining UID Requirement

2. SCOPE.

This instruction identifies marking requirements applicable to suppliers/manufacturers of CAD/PAD components. It is applicable to both production of new CAD/PAD components and remanufacture of service returned, over-aged components. It identifies marking methods applicable to the various sizes and shapes of CAD/PAD components.

As of this writing, guidance regarding mandated transfer of data to the IUID Registry can be found at https://dodprocurementtoolbox.com/site-pages/unique-id.

http://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/pdi/uid/index.html

3. Marking Requirements.

Both Human Readable Information (HRI) and Machine Readable Information (MRI) are required (see section 4). In accordance with the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), DoD has mandated the use of Data Matrix ECC 200 as the standard format for UID MRI markings. Guidance for the construct and application of Data Matrix markings is contained in MIL-STD-130 and the DoD UID Guide located at https://www.acq.osd.mil/asda/dpc/ce/ds/unique-id.html. Training, guides and others resources are located on the left side under the IUID tab.

3. 1. HRI Marking Requirements. The following HRI data is required (as a minimum):

- Item Nomenclature; Per applicable manufacturer drawing

- Manufacturer’s Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE); Five (5) alpha/numeric characters.

- Item Lot Number; Lot numbers shall be assigned IAW MIL-STD-1168 (current revision), unless otherwise directed. A new lot number and serial number shall also be assigned for “remanufactured” CAD/PAD components as opposed to adding a suffix to the original lot number for a “rework, overhaul or renovation” effort.

NOTE: The requirement for unique lot number has been deleted.

DOM is NOT required if the lot number contains the DOM as identified in MIL-STD-1168

- Item Serial Number; Serial number shall be up to eight (8) numeric characters.

The serial numbers shall be sequentially assigned and shall not be repeated until serial number 99,999,999 has been reached.

- Item manufacturer’s Part Number

NOTE: The weapon system Specification Number does not meet this requirement

- Optional markings: Additional markings (such as manufacturer’s name, logo, contract number) are acceptable, provided that space is available on the item/data label. Date of Manufacture (DOM); DOM shall be MM/YYYY and be the same date that is coded into the lot number.

NOTE: Markings and/or attachments shall make no reference to item installation requirements/procedures or shelf/service lives

S S S S S o

3.2. MRI Data Construct.

Data Matrix ECC200 markings shall be developed based on UID Data Construct #2 using Data Identifiers (DIs) in accordance with MIL-STD-130 and the DoD UID Guide (see Figure 2). To facilitate durability throughout the scanning life cycle, the largest symbol size, including quiet zone, shall be fitted within the available marking real estate. The symbol’s internal module (cell) sizes shall be no smaller than 0.0075 inch (0.19 mm) and no larger than 0.025 inch (0.64 mm). Marks shall contain only the data elements identified below:

NOTE: The actual UII will be comprised of CAGE, Part Number, and Serial Number data. The parenthesis surrounding the Data Identifiers are NOT encoded in the 2D symbol

(17V) Manufacturer’s Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code, 5 alpha/numeric characters

- (1P) Manufacturer’s Item Part Number, 18 alpha/numeric characters maximum

NOTE: The weapon system specification numbers do not meet this requirement

- (S) Item Serial Number, IAW HRI requirement, up to eight (8) numeric characters

- (30T) Item production Lot Number, IAW HRI requirement, 15 alpha/numeric characters maximum

NOTE: The data identifier for Lot Number has been changed from 1T to 30T

- (4D) Date of Manufacture (DOM), in Julian Date format, five (5) numeric characters:

Example: 08151 = 31 May 2008

The first two positions are the last two digits of the year, the last three positions are the Julian Date (001 through 366)

4. Placement of UID Marking. CAD/PAD items vary considerably in size and shape. A large percentage of these items are currently marked with HRI printed on data plates or labels permanently affixed to the item. The preferred method for incorporating the UID required MRI is to include it on the current data plate/label and, wherever possible, the supplier is to incorporate this concept. The following identifies known variations in marking and preferred MRI incorporation methods.

Note: Unless specifically identified as a requirement in the procurement contract, subcomponents of the End Item Assembly shall not be UID marked.

4.1. CAD/PAD Items Currently Marked with Data Plates, Labels, or Flag-Tags. The data plates/labels for these items shall be modified/arranged to allow space for the MRI per paragraph 3.2. Marking shall comply with MIL-STD-130 and the DoD UID Guide (see figure 3).

Figure 3. Sample Data Plate/Label

4.2. CAD/PAD Items Currently Marked With Ink or Laser Etching Directly on the Item.

Item marking shall be modified/arranged to allow space for the incorporation of ink or laser etched MRI per paragraph 3.2. Marking shall comply with MIL-STD-130 and the DoD UID Guide (see figure 4).

4.3. CAD/PAD Items Considered to be Too Small for HRI and MRI. These items shall be physically marked using currently approved methods for HRI. A self-adhesive label shall be supplied in the item inner packaging that includes the minimum HRI (per paragraph 3.1) and the MRI Data Matrix marking (per paragraph 3.2). The label shall be as small as possible (meeting MIL-STD-130 requirements for HRI) and will include only the minimum required data (see figure 5).

Figure 5. Sample Small Item Data Plate/Label

Note: This will allow the maintainer to scan the MRI from the label and the ability to affix it to the next higher assembly.

5. Kit Marking Requirements. Individual components procured and delivered in a “kit” or “ship-set” format shall each be marked with HRI and MRI as identified in sections 3 and 4.

The kit containers shall also be marked with HRI and MRI per sections 3 and 4.

Note: Individual components supplied in kits or ship-sets require unique item identifiers. Their markings shall not reflect those identifying the kit or ship-set.

5.1 Only the “kit “or “ship-set” will require data submission into the UID Registry. Data submission for individual components in a kit is not required, as these components were not individually priced as line items when placed on contract.

Note: To meet UID requirements, each kit will be assigned an individual serial number. Kits that are comprised of multiple containers will all be marked with the same serial number.

5.2 “Kits” or “ship sets” will typically be assigned lot numbers coinciding with the oldest individual component in the kit.
