NAVFAC P-300 Management of Transportation Equipment

. Justification. Justification for changes shall be based on one or more of
the following:
(1) Mission Capability Improvement. Will the proposed change
improve the capability to perform assigned mission? Quantitative estimates of
increases in construction quality, productivity, or readiness will be made. Proposed
changes which result from changes in a unit's mission will be specifically identified.
(2) Cost Effectiveness. Does the proposed change lead to a reduction
in material or labor costs or in the cost of the allowance itself? Include a brief cost
comparison.
(3) Safety. Will the proposed change result in a safer operation?
(4) Other. Will the proposed change result in a nonquantitative
improvement such as improved health, comfort, or morale?
c. Submittal. Recommendations that involve changes to authorized TOAs
shall be submitted to Commanding Officer, Code 15, Naval Construction Battalion
Center, 1000 23rd Avenue, Port Hueneme, California 93043-4301. After CESO's
research and evaluation, the Allowance Change Request (ACR) is forwarded to the
appropriate chain of command (COMSECONDNCB/COMTHIRDNCB) for endorsement
to COMNAVFACENGCOM Code123.
5.2.7 National Stock Number (NSN) Breakdown of Sets, Kits, Outfits (SKO).
Within the NCF Tables of Allowance there could be several hundred NSNs listed under
a single SKO NSN. Each of these NSNs may contain several items not individually
listed or cataloged in the TOA. For example: a mechanic's phillips screwdriver set,
NSN 5120-00-104-0005, consists of five separate items. For inventory and resupply,
CESO Code 157 maintains and distributes an inventory aid catalog entitled National
Stock Number Breakdown of Sets, Kits, and Outfits Inventory Aid Catalog. This SKO
catalog provides the custodian with a pictorial display of a set, kit, or outfit with the
means to identify all included items. Selecting only those missing items should
preclude the purchase of complete sets when only one or two items are needed.
5.2.8 Master Packing Plan. The Master Packing Plan (MPP) is a general guide for
the standardized packup of NCF TOA in ISO storage and shipping containers. Each
TOA packup has some unique variances due to different dimensions of materials,
deferred items, or availability of suitable substitutes. The Master Packing Plan
organizes the materials within the various echelons. Facility/Group components are
packed together in bulk containers. Configured containers with cabinetry store
materials together within common groups and assemblies such as the Central Store
Room and the Armory. Other specialized containers are Half-Heights for drums of
Petroleum, Oils, and Lubricants (POL) and Flat Racks for lumber and pipe. Special
