DI-MGMT-80969 Production Surge Plan.pdf

This is a Data Item Description (DID) document, specifically Form 1664, that establishes requirements for a Production Surge Plan (DI-MGMT-80969). 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 declaration of war or mobilization and subsequent use of emergency war powers. The document is applicable to contracts requiring production surge capability for select critical items and may be used independently or with, but not in lieu of, DI-P-7046 (Industrial Preparedness Planning Data).

The Production Surge Plan must include: the maximum sustainable production rate with a production buildup schedule by month until achieving that rate; two lists identifying subcontracted and non-subcontracted items/components by nomenclature, part number, leadtime, and production volume of long-leadtime, critical, or pacing items that could adversely impact production; a list of Government contracts at the contractor's facility with production surge provisions or paid readiness assumed to be surged, including contract numbers, items, and Defense Materials System and Defense Priorities Systems priorities; description of surging impact on other Government contracts and the contractor's commercial business; identification of all additional skilled labor requirements necessary to support maximum sustainable production rate; a strategic or critical materials list with quantities, costs, and six-month rolling inventory requirements; and a list of production equipment, tooling, and costs that if acquired would increase surge production capability by at least 10 percent or reduce leadtime. The plan format is contractor-determined. This DID supersedes DI-P-1634A and is approved for public release with unlimited distribution.
