Fuel Requisitions
The supply officer procures fuels, but the engineer
officer determines fuel requirements. The engineer
officer tells the supply officer how much fuel is required
and when it should be delivered. Fuel is normally
procured from one of the following sources:
Fleet oilers, station tankers, and yard oilers
Fuel depots and annexes
Commercial shore installations, both foreign and
domestic, under Defense Petroleum Supply
Center (DPSC) and local contracts
Other Navy combatant or service force ships
Shore installations of other services or agencies
In an emergency, the supply officer may procure
fuel from United States commercial ships, foreign naval
ships, foreign naval shore establishments, foreign
commercial ships, or foreign commercial shore
establishments not currently under DPSC or local Navy
contracts.
UNIFORM MATERIAL MOVEMENT AND
ISSUE PRIORITY SYSTEM (UMMIPS)
UMMIPS ensures that material requests are
processed according to the MILITARY IMPORTANCE
of the requiring activity and the URGENCY of that
activitys needs.
In the movement and issue of material it is necessary
to have a common basis to decide priorities for
transportation, warehousing, introduction of
requisitions for processing, and material assets.
UMMIPS provides this common basis through a series
of two-digit issue priority designators, which are shown
in figure 5-11.
Material requests submitted to supply that are filled
from storeroom stock do not require a priority
designator. However, all requisitions prepared by the
supply department must have a priority designator
assigned. The priority designator is derived from two
factors; one that classifies the military importance of the
ship and the second that rates the urgency of need. The
military importance factor is called the force/activity
designator (FAD).
FAD is a Roman numeral (I through V) assigned by
the Secretary of Defense (SECDEF), the Joint Chiefs of
Staff (JCS), of a DOD component to indicate the mission
essentiality of a unit, organization, installation, project,
or program to meet national objectives. The FAD is
based on a DOD determination of activity/mission
importance or essentiality.
