c) Click on Help and follow the instructions for obtaining the necessary access

C.4.7.5 HELP Numbers are as follows:

MHP Access (256)313-2143; DSN 897-2143JMC Quality

Administrators for WARP issues (309)782-2697 or

(309)782 7107

C.4.7.6 WARP

An online users manual will provide additional help in the development of an ammunition data card (ADC). It is recommended that you download and read the users manual prior to inputting your initial data card. The user's manual also contains screen shots, which depict what the inputter will see during the ADC input process.

C.4.7.7 Draft Ammunition Data Card: The Contractor shall submit a draft ADC for review by the Defense Contract Management Agency

(DCMA) Quality Assurance Representative (QAR) and IPT. The draft ADC will be reviewed by the QAR and IPT to ensure that it is complete and contains information in the correct format.

C.4.7.8 Ammunition Data Card Input ADC input allows current Contractors and USG facilities the capability to create, and submit for approval, ADCs which meet the format requirements of MIL-STD-1168C. ADCs are automatically forwarded to the respective USG Agency Responsible for Acceptance (GARA). The GARA in most cases is the DCMA 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 inputter is granted access only to ADCs identified with its specific manufacturing code, as identified in MIL-HDBK-

1461A, Manufacturer's Symbols. The use of previously inputted ADCs through the TEMPLATE option significantly reduces input effort, while increasing accuracy and consistency of data.

C.4.7.9 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 base and an email, with approved data card, is routed back to the originator. If the ADC requires modification or correction to conform to MIL-STD-1168C and contract requirements, an email is provided to the ADC originator advising that corrective action is required prior to approval.

C.4.7.10 Information Updates

It is important that the System Administrators are apprised when a producer receives a new contract. The producer shall notify ROCK-JMC-

WARP@conus.army.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 ROCK-JMC-

WARP@conus.army.mil. The email must contain manufacturer's name, address where performance of the contract will take place, and a point of contact.

C.4.7.11 Report of Contractor Ballistic/Function Testing Module

C.4.7.11.1 In addition to its ADC function, WARP also serves as a repository for reports of Contractor ballistic (or functional) testing. Whenever the contract requires Contractor performance of ballistic testing, the results of such testing shall be captured by you, the performing Contractor, within a specially designed Lot Acceptance Test Report (LATR) module.

C.4.7.11.2 Within the LATR module, you are required to provide a report of any Contractor ballistic/function testing and to submit the report in electronic format via the internet. The report must be a .pdf file for the upload process to work.

C.4.7.11.3 Acceptance and Description Sheets (for Propellants and Explosives) Module: The WARP application now contains an area for on-screen data entry capturing requirements per MIL-STD-1171B for Acceptance and Description Sheets with respect to contract specified

Propellant, Chemical and Explosive constituents

C.4.7.12 Detailed requirements and guidance for the preparation of

ADCs are contained in MIL-STD-1168C, DI-MISC-80043B and the WARP online users manual. Detailed requirements for obtaining and using a

7 27

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

manufacturer's identification symbol, which is an integral component of the ammunition lot number, can be found in MIL-HDBK-1461A.

C.4.7.12.1 The supplier shall develop and submit ADCs in accordance with the requirements of this clause, MIL-STD-1168C, and the user manual located on the WARP database. The WARP application is accessed through the Munitions History Program (MHP) website.

(Refer to C.4.7.12.2 for more information.) The ADC requirement is a flow-down requirement that applies to Contractors and their suppliers, vendors or subcontractors.

C.4.7.12.3 The supplier shall prepare an ADC for each lot of item(s) being produced under this contract, regardless of whether or not those lots are accepted or rejected by the USG. The ADC shall comply with MIL-STD-1168C and WARP requirements.

C.4.7.12.4 The supplier shall include, in the components sections on the ADC representing the deliverable item, as a minimum; all assemblies, sub-assemblies, components, explosives, and propellants listed below for the item being procured.
