2g071 CDC Logistics Plans Craftsman

The PERSCO team usually operates the RPU and accounts for all arriving and departing personnel. The PERSCO team establishes strength accountability for everyone they are responsible for, regardless of location and update the information in the accountability system. The kind of information updated in the accountability system are arrival dates and force gains.
The PERSCO team establishes reception procedures and meets personnel when they arrive on station. The team obtains one copy of contingency, exercise, and deployment (CED) orders and completes an AF Form 245, Employment Locator and Processing Checklist, on each individual.
However, if a PERSCO team is not available, the troop commander appoints a person to maintain accountability until a PERSCO team arrives.

The logistics planner is working in the Support Agreements management section when reviewing and maintaining a master file of MOUs. This section is responsible for managing and maintaining support agreements between different organizations, ensuring that all agreements are up to date and properly documented.

The correct answer is d. assigned according to the function and skill level of the loggie. This means that the 7-level logistics craftsman assigns work based on the specific function or task that needs to be performed, as well as the skill level of the individual. This ensures that the right person with the appropriate skills and knowledge is assigned to the task, maximizing efficiency and effectiveness in completing the work.

WRM assets are identified by category. This means that they are classified and grouped based on their type or category. This allows for easier management and organization of the assets. By categorizing the assets, it becomes simpler to track and locate specific items when needed. Additionally, categorization helps in determining the condition and status of the assets, ensuring that they are properly maintained and accounted for.

If the collection of documents is left until the redeployment order is received, it could cause major delays in the redeployment process. This implies that the timely collection of documents is crucial for the smooth and efficient execution of the redeployment process. If the documents are not collected in a timely manner, it can lead to delays in the overall process, potentially impacting the timely redeployment of aircraft and other resources.

During the first quarter of the annual review of the information in the BaS&E Planning Tool, steps 1-8 are accomplished. This means that the review process includes activities such as gathering and analyzing data, identifying key issues and trends, setting goals and objectives, and developing strategies and action plans. These initial steps lay the foundation for the rest of the review process and help to ensure that the planning tool is effectively utilized to guide decision-making and improve performance.

UTCs are collected or grouped together at locations in the United States or overseas that are designated as an aggregation point. War planners try to aggregate most UTCs to a location where airlift will arrive to take the cargo and/or personnel to the aerial port of debarkation (APOD).

If a 3 skill level logistics planner has been task certified by the trainer/supervisor, it means that they have demonstrated the necessary skills and knowledge to perform their tasks effectively. This certification indicates that the apprentice airman is capable of performing their duties without direct supervision, as they have proven their competence in the required tasks. Therefore, the correct answer is b. can perform tasks unsupervised.

The most common method for disseminating classified information to affected units is through classified briefings. This involves a face-to-face presentation or discussion where the necessary information is shared with the individuals or units who need to be informed. This method ensures that the information is delivered securely and allows for any questions or clarifications to be addressed in real-time. Published orders, scrambled phone calls, and messages/couriers may also be used in certain situations, but classified briefings are generally the preferred method for disseminating classified information.

FAACs receive training when assigned to the position. This means that they receive training specifically for the role they are assigned to, rather than receiving training at a different time or for a different position. This ensures that they are properly trained and prepared for their specific duties and responsibilities.

ACSA activities reports are produced annually. This means that the reports are created once a year.

Inconsistencies in these UTCs could impact combat readiness. In particular, these errors could lead to under-equipping a deploying unit or overstating requests for strategic lift. (page 2-4)

The correct answer is b. Costs for conferences not in direct support of WRM. This is an example of an unauthorized WRM expenditure because it involves spending money on conferences that do not directly support the WRM mission or objectives. Unauthorized expenditures are those that are not approved or authorized by the appropriate authorities and are not in line with the purpose and goals of the organization. In this case, the costs for conferences are not directly contributing to the support and maintenance of WRM assets and resources.

When part I of the IGESP is unclassified, it is marked as "For Official Use Only." This means that although the information is not classified, it is intended for official use within a specific organization or department. It is not meant for public dissemination or sharing with individuals outside of the organization. This marking helps ensure that the information is handled appropriately and only accessed by authorized personnel.

Redeployment encompasses the transfer of a unit, an individual, or supplies deployed in one area to another area, to another location within the area, or to home station. Redeployment is not the same as “deployment in reverse.” Redeploying may, for military, political, or diplomatic reasons, be far more rapid than the deployment phase. Similar to deployment, redeployment operations encompass four phases:
• Redeployment planning.
• Pre-redeployment activities.
• Movement.
• Joint reception, staging, onward movement, and integration (JRSOI).

Deployment is movement of forces and their sustainment from their point of origin to a specific operational area to conduct joint operations. Reception, staging, on-ward movement, and integration (RSO&I) is the final stage of deployment. It is important to remember that RSO&I functions are applicable to both the deployment and redeployment phases of military operations. RSO&I is the essential process that transitions deploying forces—consisting of personnel, equipment, and materiel arriving in theater—into forces capable of meeting the CCDR’s operational requirements.

Transfers under ACSA authorities reduce the US "logistics tail" by allowing procurement of needed items from a host nation. This means that instead of shipping items from the US to where they are needed, the US can acquire them from a host nation, reducing the logistical burden. This can save time, resources, and streamline the process of obtaining necessary supplies.

Logistics planners assigned as the WRMNCO (War Reserve Material Noncommissioned Officer) spend most of their time on the Installation WRM (War Reserve Material) review board. This means that they are primarily involved in reviewing and managing the war reserve materials at the installation level. They are responsible for ensuring that the necessary resources and equipment are available and ready for use in case of emergencies or contingencies. The Installation WRM review board is where they assess the status and readiness of the war reserve materials at their specific installation.

Before WRM can be used for indirect mission support, the request must be forwarded by the WRMO/NCO through the WRMPM to the next approval level. This suggests that there is a hierarchical approval process in place, where the request needs to go through multiple levels of approval before it can be granted. The involvement of the WRMO/NCO and WRMPM indicates that these individuals have authority in the approval process. The other options (a, b, c) do not mention the involvement of these specific individuals or the hierarchical approval process, making them incorrect choices.

If the storing unit does not provide the transportation section with the outload requirements, the transportation section will not be able to create a plan for loading the WRM (War Reserve Material) for outload. This means that the transportation section will not have the necessary information to determine how to transport the WRM effectively and efficiently.

The receiver must give the supplier a minimum of 180 days notice if they terminate the support agreement.

• In the event of limited materiel handling equipment (MHE), locate the pallet build-up area and the aircraft silhouette as near to aircraft load sites as possible to help reduce MHE requirements. (pg 2-15)

The WRMNCO (War Reserve Material Noncommissioned Officer) is responsible for ensuring that WRM (War Reserve Material) authorizations are loaded in both the SBSS (Standard Base Supply System) and the CAS (Centralized Accounting System). They are specifically designated to handle the management and inventory of WRM, ensuring that the necessary authorizations are properly recorded and accounted for in these systems. The installation commander and support group commander may have oversight, but it is ultimately the WRMNCO's responsibility to handle this task.

When the appropriate DOD agency and the GSA provide planning information about the origin and availability of non-Service controlled materiel, the Services will develop force consumption rates. This is done in order to establish non-unit requirements, meaning that they will determine how much of the materiel will be needed for specific purposes or operations. This helps in effectively managing and allocating resources based on the information provided by the DOD agency and the GSA.

In step 3 of interpreting the WCDO, the WCDO quantities required day-by-day are compared to the sortie information for the WAAR. This step involves analyzing the daily requirements for the WCDO and comparing them to the actual sortie information to ensure that the necessary quantities are being met.

New UTCs are requested when a desired capability does not exist. This means that if there is a specific capability that is needed but is not currently available, a request can be made for a new UTC to be created. This allows for the development and deployment of resources and personnel that can fulfill the desired capability. The other options, such as every six years or when required by the installation commander, do not specifically address the need for a desired capability that is currently lacking.

In the first step of interpreting the WCDO, the WRMO/NCO assembles the WRMMs to review the document. This suggests that the initial stage of interpreting the WCDO involves gathering the relevant individuals responsible for reviewing and analyzing the document.

If there are significant changes to the unit's support posture, the correct action required is for the units to update or rewrite their IGESP/ESPs. This means that the units need to make necessary changes to their Integrated Ground Support Equipment Plan (IGESP) or Equipment Support Plan (ESP) to reflect the new support posture. This ensures that the plans accurately reflect the unit's current capabilities and requirements.

The CWRMO/NCO participates in WRM surveillance visits with the CWRMM. This indicates that the Chief Weapons and Tactics officer or Non-Commissioned Officer is responsible for participating in the surveillance visits alongside the CWRMM.

It is a coordinated effort between the pilot and nonpilot units to accurately manage and report on UTCs. (page 2-4)

As a 7-level Craftsman, it is important that you understand the MAJCOM and base level purpose and responsibilities for logistics plans, including the role of the Air Force (Air Staff and MAJCOM interface) in the overall planning process. A logistics planner integrates Air Force functional planning in support of operational war plans directed by the Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan (JSCP) and USAF War and Mobilization Plan (WMP) as well as operations under the Air and Space Expeditionary Force (AEF) concept.

The question states that if part 1 of volume 2 of the War and Mobilization Plan (WMP-2) lists the CCDR plans required by the JSCP, then the correct answer is that WMP-2 part 2 is written in support of WMP-2, part 1. This means that part 2 of WMP-2 is designed to provide additional information or details to support the plans listed in part 1.

Manpower coordinates with the FM (Financial Management) office to determine cost factor development in areas involving labor. The FM office is responsible for managing the financial resources of an organization and would have the necessary information and expertise to determine the cost factors related to labor. The receiver, installation commander, and SAM are not specifically mentioned as being involved in determining cost factors in this context.

UTCs should be developed to allow tasking from a single organization. This means that a single organization should have the authority and responsibility to assign tasks and coordinate activities within the UTC. This ensures clear lines of command and control, streamlines decision-making processes, and promotes efficient and effective execution of tasks. Having a single organization in charge of tasking also helps to avoid confusion, duplication of efforts, and conflicting priorities that may arise when multiple organizations are involved in the development and management of UTCs.

If a non-pilot unit does not provide the correct address information to the pilot unit, the coordination process will not function efficiently. This means that there may be delays or errors in communication and coordination between different units, which can hinder the overall effectiveness and efficiency of operations. It is important for all units to provide accurate and up-to-date information to ensure smooth coordination and successful mission execution.

A right-sized UTC is one that provides a generic building block capability. This provides greater flexibility to planners and enables optimal support to the warfighting combatant commander (CCDR) or component. When integrated with other right-sized UTCs, it provides greater mission capability needed to support an air expeditionary group (AEG), air expeditionary wing (AEW), or air and space expeditionary task force (AETF).

The correct answer is b. The CWRMO/NCO provides training to WRMO/NCOs. This means that the CWRMO/NCO is responsible for providing guidance and instruction to the WRMO/NCOs in their roles and responsibilities related to WRM (War Reserve Materiel) management. The CWRMO/NCO acts as a trainer and mentor to ensure that the WRMO/NCOs have the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively manage WRM.

When new equipment types enter the inventory, new UTCs (Unit Type Codes) must be developed. UTCs are alphanumeric codes that identify specific types of equipment and their associated personnel and resources. Developing new UTCs ensures that the inventory management system accurately reflects the new equipment and allows for effective tracking and allocation of resources.

Orientation training is accomplished through a formal briefing or office visit. This type of training is designed to familiarize individuals with the organization, its policies, procedures, and culture. It provides an overview of the workplace and helps new employees or visitors understand their roles and responsibilities. Orientation training is typically conducted on an individual or small group basis to ensure personalized attention and effective communication of important information.

Before inputting IGESP part 1 requirements to BaS&E via NIPRNET, the step of reviewing IGESP part 1 and 2 chapter reports is completed. This step is necessary to gather all the relevant information and requirements from the reports before entering them into the BaS&E Planning Tool. It ensures that the data entered into the tool is accurate and up-to-date, helping in effective planning and decision-making processes.

The FMO uses both the cost basis and the cost method in order to bill the receiver. This suggests that both factors are necessary in determining the appropriate amount to charge the receiver.

The SAM (System Administrator Manager) provides the support requests to the FAACs. The SAM is responsible for managing and maintaining the system, including handling support requests and ensuring that the FAACs are functioning properly. The installation commander may play a role in overall supervision, but the direct responsibility for support requests lies with the SAM. The receiver and the communications squadron FAAC are not mentioned in relation to support requests in the given information.

The CJCS establishes the force apportionment construct in the JSCP to support the GFM process. This means that the CJCS creates a plan for how military forces will be allocated and assigned in order to support the Global Force Management (GFM) process. The GFM process involves determining the allocation and assignment of forces to meet operational requirements and support national security objectives. By establishing the force apportionment construct, the CJCS ensures that there is a plan in place to allocate and assign forces effectively and efficiently to support the GFM process.

The CCDR directs subordinate commands and forces as necessary to carry out missions assigned to the command, including authoritative direction over all aspects of military operations, joint training, and logistics within the area of responsibility (AOR). Any force assigned to a CCDR may be transferred from that command only as directed by the SecDef and under procedures prescribed by the SecDef and approved by the President.

After the NAF staff reviews the LIMFAC, the next event that takes place is the NAF commander approving the LIMFACs. This indicates that the NAF commander has reviewed and given their approval for the LIMFACs, which are likely contingency plans or requirements for the base-level units. The other options, such as the installation commander approving validated LIMFACs and IGESPC validating LIMFACs, are not mentioned as subsequent events after the NAF staff reviews the LIMFAC. Therefore, the correct answer is b. NAF commander approves LIMFACs.

The FMO gets the information it needs to put together the funding annex from FAAC.

During a surveillance visit, the WRMNCO is accompanied by the WRMM. The WRMM is the Wing Readiness Management Manager, who is responsible for overseeing the readiness and compliance of the unit. They would be the appropriate person to accompany the WRMNCO during a surveillance visit to ensure that all readiness and compliance standards are being met.
