This document is a Data Item Description (DID) for a Production Surge Plan (DI-MGMT-B0969), which provides guidance for contractors to rapidly accelerate and sustain production utilizing existing facilities and equipment during peacetime acquisition environments or potential emergency scenarios.

The DID outlines specific requirements for the Production Surge Plan, including detailed instructions for developing comprehensive documentation. Key elements include: (1) defining the maximum sustainable production rate with a production building schedule, (2) creating two lists of subcontracted and non-subcontracted items/components with details like nomenclature, part number, leadtime, and critical components, (3) listing government contracts being performed at the contractor's facility that could be surge-impacted, (4) describing potential impact on other contracts' performance, (5) identifying additional skilled labor requirements, (6) listing strategic or critical materials needed, and (7) detailing production equipment that could increase production rate or reduce leadtime by at least 10 percent.
