4. REQUESTED CHANGE: 

a. Description of Change: This change authorizes a data field on multiple DLMS 

transactions to provide a cross reference to the assigned local stock number (LSN) when a unit of use 

requirement applies to that materiel. This field will be used on transactions supporting the interface 

between the DLA-operated storage depot under the Distribution Standard System (DSS) and the 

Marine Corps Maintenance Centers (MCMC). This addendum supplements procedures under ADC 

381 which remains in effect. 
Approved Addendum to ADC 381A 

Attachment, Page 2 

b. Background: 

(1) As a result of the 2005 BRAC decision, storage and distribution functions and 

associated infrastructure supporting the Marine Corps Maintenance Center (MCMC) sites will transfer 

to DLA. The MCMC sites are located at Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany, GA and Marine Corps 

Logistics Base Barstow, CA. The intent of the directive is to significantly improve combat 

effectiveness while reducing costs by developing a world-class, cost-effective supply chain focused on 

readiness; taking every opportunity to eliminate waste, reduce touches, reduce cost, and improve 

readiness. DLA will provide receipt, store and issue of MCMC owned material using DSS. The 

MCMC sites will retain the industrial make/buy work planning decision responsibilities, as well as 

requisition creation responsibilities for planned and emergent material requirements determined via the 

material planning tools used at these sites. 

(2) ADC 381 Background. There are items cataloged as an NSN within the DoD/Marine 

Corps systems, but which will be issued to the Marine Corps in a unit of use which is less than Federal 

Logistics Information System (FLIS) unit of issue. These items will be assigned a unique LSN to be 

used internally within DLA systems. DLA will maintain inventory balances, generate issues, and post 

inventory adjustments against the LSN material number. These LSNs will also reflect a unit of use 

and not the FLIS unit of issue. The Marine Corps will maintain balances, generate issues and 

requisition and post all subsequent actions against the actual NSN. DLA-generated DLMS 

transactions will carry both the unit of use LSN and the FLIS NSN. An indicator in the beginning 

segment of the transaction is often used to draw attention to this form of materiel identification. 

(3) Detailed Procedures: A Unit of Use LSN is established when the MCMC requires 

storage and distribution of non-NSN materiel at a quantity that is less than the unit of measure 

established for purchase and initial receipt of that materiel. When the Unit of Use LSN is identified as 

the primary materiel identification, the original LSN assigned for the part-numbered materiel may be 

included to provide a cross-reference to the item which was initially cataloged between the 

participating parties. The transactions below are prepared by the DLA DSS, they will include a crossreference to the original LSN when the Unit Of Use Indicator is identified and the primarily materiel 

identification is the Unit of Use LSN. Staffing Note: Transactions prepared by the MCMC will not 

contain the cross-reference LSN. Also refer to ADC 398 (reference 3.f) for MCMC rules for 

conversion from the unit of issue to the unit of use.

(4) DLMS Supplement updates are shown at Enclosure 1 to add existing DLMS data 

element for LSN:

 527R, Receipt, Inquiry and Response 

 842A/W and 842A/R, SDR and SDR Reply 

 842C/I and 842C/R, Stock Screening Request and Reply 

 842S/Q and 842S/R, Storage Quality Control Report 

 846P, Physical Inventory Request 

 846R, Location Reconciliation Request

Attachment, Page 3 

 867I, Issue 

 943A, Warehouse Service Advice 

 945A, Materiel Release Advice 

 947I, Inventory Adjustment

5. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES: 

a. Advantages: Material Resource Planning (MRP) II, Industrial Logistics Support 

Management Information System (ILSMIS) and DSS, will be able to comply with DLMS standards 

for the BRAC Storage and Distribution Interface process. Provides visibility of the LSN which was 

cataloged for the materiel being issued at a unit of use level.

b. Disadvantages: None identified. 

6. IMPACT: 

 a. Planned Implementation Date: DLA and Marine Corps testing will begin November 15, 

2010. Target implementation is February 22, 2011. 

 b. Integrated Data Environment (IDE)/Global Transportation Network (GTN) 

Convergence (IGC). This change is a new business process and impact must be assessed by 

developers. 

c. Asset Visibility (AV) Application (Defense Logistics Information System). Assets 

identified by non-standard material identification types will not be recognized by third parties in AV 

unless the cross-references established by the DLMS 832, Catalog Data Support, transaction are 

known to AV. 

d. DLMS Data. No new DLMS data elements are created by this addendum. The 

applicability of the DLMS data element LSN is expanded to include LSNs assigned for unit of use 

identified to part numbered/non-NSN items. A conditional rule is established to include the assigned 

LSN as a cross reference when a Unit of Use LSN is the primary identification and is associated with a 

non-NSN item.
