the direct labor necessary to maintain units in a safe and reliable condition throughout<br />

their economic service life. These standards include the necessary labor hours to<br />

lubricate, service, clean, wash, install tires and batteries, remove, repair, and replace<br />

major/minor components, subassemblies, parts, and accessories, except those<br />

resulting from accidents. The standards do not cover extensive one-time major repair<br />

or overhaul <strong>of</strong> a complete unit <strong>of</strong> equipment.<br />

4-1.8.3 <strong>Transportation</strong> Reports. The primary formal information systems available to<br />

transportation management are the NAVCOMPT Form 2168, Operating<br />

Budget/Expense Report (Figure 4-1-1) and the NAVCOMPT Form 2169, Performance<br />

Statement (Figure 4-1-2). Details <strong>of</strong> these reports are provided in NAVSO P-<strong>300</strong>6.<br />

These or other similar reports should be provided monthly by the activity<br />

comptroller/fiscal <strong>of</strong>ficer from the activity accounting system as required by NAVSO<br />

P-<strong>300</strong>6. The essential information provided by these reports and their recommended<br />

functional use by the transportation managers are as follows.<br />

4-1.8.4 Evaluation <strong>of</strong> Reports<br />

a. Operating Budget/Expense Report, (NAVCOMPT Form 2168). The<br />

NAVCOMPT Form 2168 provides management with details as to work units completed,<br />

man-hours, and accrued expenses, cumulative-to-date by cost account code. Using<br />

the monthly NAVCOMPT Form 2168 and records maintained by the activity<br />

transportation organization, i.e., IO, inventory, work units, downtime, etc., an analysis<br />

can be made to determine if the transportation organization is meeting the plan and<br />

what elements may be causing a deviation from the approved budget plan. A<br />

suggested budget troubleshooting chart (Figure 4-1-3) is provided to aid the<br />

transportation director in analyzing the budget performance.<br />

b. Performance Statement, (NAVCOMPT Form 2169). The NAVCOMPT<br />

Form 2169 (Figure 4-1-2) is designed to provide management with the actual fiscal<br />

year to date totals for accrued expenses and work units which are compared with the<br />

approved annual operating budget for each cost account code. In theory, a uniform<br />

expenditure rate is about 8.3 percent per month. While the actual expenditures for<br />

individual cost accounts may vary from the uniform rate, the transportation director<br />

should analyze the significance <strong>of</strong> any variance from the uniform rate and take<br />

corrective action when appropriate. Similarly, the report provides the number <strong>of</strong> work<br />

units performed for each cost account code and the to-date percentage <strong>of</strong> the planned<br />

work units related to the budget. For example, in theory if 8.3 percent <strong>of</strong> funds for<br />

maintenance were expended in the first month, then in theory 8.3 percent <strong>of</strong> the<br />

planned work units (miles/hours) should also have been accomplished, since this was<br />

the basis <strong>of</strong> the budget amount. Here again the transportation director must analyze<br />

the variance and take necessary corrective action.<br />
