Defense Transportation Regulation, Part IV

AGENCY: United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM), DOD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Reference Federal Register Notice (FRN), Docket ID: DOD-2010-
OS-0034, published 1 April 2010, DOD has updated portions of the Phase 
III draft Business Rules for the Defense Personal Property Program 
(DP3) in the Defense Transportation Regulation (DTR) Part IV (DTR 
4500.9R). The updates/revisions to the Phase III business rules include 
the elimination of the Domestic and International Local Move (dLM and 
iLM) and Intra-Country Move (iCM) Tender of Service. Requirements for 
Domestic Local Moves (dLM) can be met using the existing DP3 domestic 
``dHHG'' market using intrastate/interstate domestic shipment code 
``D'' and the 400NG solicitation. In addition, Phase III development 
efforts will incorporate International Local Moves (iLM) into the DP3 
international ``iHHG'' market using a new shipment code of service 
(COS) ``C'' and the SDDC International Tender (IT). Implementation 
timelines will be based on completion of Defense Personal Property 
System (DPS) Phase III programming to account for the above efforts 
projected for FY14.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Request comments be submitted in the 
identified Excel-format sample posted with the business rules.
    In furtherance of DOD's goal to develop and implement an efficient 
personal property program to facilitate quality movements for our 
military members and civilian employees, the Phase III Business Rules 
were developed by the Military Services and SDDC. The following revised 
Phase III iCM Business Rules are available for review and comment on 
the USTRANSCOM Web site at: http://www.transcom.mil/dtr/part-iv/phaseiii.cfm:
    Attachment V.C.3--TSP Qualifications;
    Attachment V.D.3--Rate Filing;
    Attachment V.E.3--Customer Satisfaction Survey;
    Attachment V.F.3--Best Value Score;
    Attachment V.G.3--Electronic Bill Payment;
    Attachment V.J.3--Shipment Management.

All associated proposed changes will be incorporated into the 400NG and 
IT and posted on the SDDC Web site prior to rate filing. In addition, 
SDDC will conduct an ``Open Season'' to allow companies that currently 
service Local Move shipments in CONUS and OCONUS and those that 
currently service intra-theater moves to qualify and participate in 
these extended markets.
    Any subsequent modification(s) to the business rules beyond the 
above stated changes will be published in the Federal Register and 
incorporated into the Defense Transportation Regulation (DTR) Part IV 
(DTR 4500.9R). These program requirements do not impose a legal 
requirement, obligation, sanction or penalty on the public sector, and 
will not have an economic impact of $100 million or more.

Additional Information:

    A complete version of the DTR is available via the Internet on the 
USTRANSCOM homepage at http://www.transcom.mil/j5/pt/dtr_part_iv.cfm.
