Consumables The requirements for consumables are derived from the applicable ARR for new aircraft/systems that meet the protect criteria. These requirements are provided to the operating site as recommended stock levels. The  operating  site  will  determine  the  final consumable  requirement  levels  by  comparing  the recommended   quantities   to   the   levels   previously established under the local demand-based procedures. FIXED ALLOWANCE VALIDATION The NAVICP-Phil will forward the fixed allowance review  aids  (FARA)  to  the  operating  site  and  TYCOM for review. Upon receipt of the review aids, validate the preliminary  fixed  allowance.  In  validation,  use  the latest  12  months  of  local  3-M  data  and  the  computation formula  in  enclosure  2  of  FASOINST  4441.16. Recommended changes to the fixed allowance must be supported  by  updating  the  FARA  supplement  with  local 3-M data, separating BCMs by category. Return the updated  FARA  supplement  to  NAVICP-Phil  including the period of 3-M data used. The NAVICP-Phil will use the updated FARA supplement to recompute the fixed allowances  and  determine  the  final  allowance  quantity. EXECUTION OF SHORCAL After   the   allowance   determination   process, NAVICP-Phil   will   load   the   planned   program requirements (PPRs) for new fixed allowances to the planned program file (PPF). The NAVICP-Phil loads the PPR by using document identifier BPR (for TIR sites)  or  501  (for  non-TIR  sites).  The  final  SHORCAL products   are   forwarded   by   NAVICP-Phil   to   the operating site and the TYCOM. the final products are transmitted  to  the  operating  site  83  days  after  the  date when   NAVICP-Phil   forwarded   the   preliminary products. After receiving the final products, the operating site must remove the old allowances and load the new fixed allowances. Operating  sites  must  submit  newly established   or   increased   fixed   allowances   to NAVICP-Phil.  The  requisitions  must  cite  advice  code SD and fund code QZ for 7R Cog items and fund code 26 for 1R Cog items. Submit a separate requisition for each 7R Cog item. Submit  a  cancellation  request  for  all  outstanding requisitions that are confirmed excess to the new fixed allowances.  Return  excess  7R  Cog  items  by  using document  identifier  D6_,  fund  code  QZ,  management code C, and project code RDE to the nearest wholesale activity. Refer  to  FASOINST  4441.16  for  additional information   concerning   SHORCAL,   Splinter SHORCAL,  and  SASS. COMPUTATION  OF  FIXED ALLOWANCE The  quantity  of  an  activity’s  fixed  allowance  of aviation   material   is   set   and   changed   only   by NAVICP-Phil. The requirements for fixed allowance are determined by the sum of attrition and local repair cycle requirements (LRCRs). The fixed allowance may also  include  funded  additives  such  as  the  supplemental support  requirements. The  Maintenance  and  Material  Management  (3-M) Systems data is used in determining the fixed allowance requirements of the activity. The 3-M systems data period must be the most current 12 months. In the case of new system(s) or aircraft on station for less than 1 year, a minimum of 6 months of 3-M data is used. The retail levels in support of aircraft on board carriers are derived on a community basis. This data is overlaid  into  the  preliminary  AVCAL  output  products as  the  baseline  tailored  fixed  allowance  (BLTFA), subject  to  negotiations  during  the  AQRC,  The collective  experience  for  BCM,  repair,  and  TAT  of  the sites that constitute the carrier community is applied in the calculation of the BLTFA. Usage data from the carrier undergoing re-AVCAL is always applied in the calculation of the BLTFA. ATTRITION QUANTITY Attrition requirements are determined from the site’s BCM actions. Activities may approximate the attrition requirements for the purpose of allowance change request-fixeed (ACR-F) by using the BCM rate computation.  Compute  the  raw  attrition  quantity according   to   FASOINST   4441.15   or   FASOINST 4441.16. LOCAL REPAIR CYCLE REQUIREMENT (LRCR) QUANTITY The   operating   site   may   simulate   the   LRCR determination for the purpose of ACR-F submission and  allowance  negotiations  by  using  the  activity’s constrained TAT. The following principles apply in determining  LRCR  levels: 4-26
