DID_DI-MGMT-80969.pdf

This is a Data Item Description (DID) for a Production Surge Plan, identification number DI-MGMT-80969, approved by the Office of the Secretary of Defense (A/AMOCOM/FD) on February 14, 2019. The DID is applicable to contracts requiring production surge capability for select critical items.

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. The plan must include the maximum sustainable production rate with a month-by-month buildup schedule until achievement, considering subcontractor and vendor capacity for component and material delivery. The required content includes: (1) two lists identifying subcontracted and non-subcontracted items/components by nomenclature, part number, leadtime, and production volume with long-leadtime, critical, or pacing items highlighted; (2) a list of Government contracts at the contractor's facility that have production surge provisions or could allegedly be surged, including contract numbers, items, and Defense Priorities System assignments; (3) description of surge impact on other Government contracts currently being surged or other contracts; (4) all additional skilled labor requirements including machinists, toolmakers, and quality assurance personnel necessary to support maximum sustainable production; (5) identification of strategic or critical materials and precious metals required, including quantities, costs, and substitute materials; and (6) a list of tooling, equipment, and costs down to the lowest tier subcontractor that would increase surge production capacity by at least 10 percent or reduce leadtime, with estimated cost impacts. This DID may be used independently or with, but not in lieu of, DI-P-7046 (Industrial Preparedness Planning Data).
