Judgement
Logistics to perform the required mission/activity based underway drill
sets will be the responsibility of the unit and should be conducted in the
same manner as required for certification and currency.
As with any STAN Team visit; units are encouraged to engage early and
as much as needed with the STAN Team staff in order to prepare for a
successful visit.
The readiness and standardization program is under constant revision due
to changes in mission, platform, policy, and/or procedures. Changes in
the program are common as new procedures/requirements are identified.
Every attempt is made to keep the field informed of these changes.
However, there are times during an assessment that the STAN Team
Inspectors must make a judgment call regarding a discrepancy; keeping
safe boat operations as their number one priority.
With the full support of the Commandant (CG-731), STAN Teams have
been directed to document any and all discrepancies on the unit
assessment report; including those which may not be covered in current
policy. Following the assessment , STAN Team Supervisors forward the
new findings to the Commandant (CG-731) through the Boat Force
Doctrine Team for review and policy amendment if appropriate.
B.7.a. Unit
Conduct
Neither the unit personnel or Operational Commander (representatives)
shall argue with STAN Team members in an attempt to sway their
decision. Confrontational behavior will lead to negative crew perception
and, in the worst case scenario, may affect unit qualification for the
Sumner I. Kimball Readiness Award.
