DoD Condition Codes CC

AP2.5 APPENDIX 2.5 

FEDERAL CONDITION CODES

 

 

NUMBER OF CHARACTERS:    One

 

TYPE OF CODE:                            Alpha/Numeric

 

EXPLANATION:                             There are two different and distinct condition codes under  the definition of Federal Condition Codes:

 

  1. Supply condition codes are used to classify materiel in terms of readiness for issue and use or to identify action underway to change the status of materiel.

 

  1. Disposal condition codes are assigned by the DRMO based on inspection of materiel at time of receipt.  A combination of the disposal condition codes, which most accurately describe the materiel physical condition, and the supply condition codes will constitute the Federal condition codes for utilization program screening and review purpose.

 

 

SUPPLY CONDITION CODES

 

NUMBER OF CHARACTERS:    One

 

TYPE OF CODE:                            Alphabetic

 

EXPLANATION:                             Classify materiel in terms of readiness for issue and use or    to identify action underway to change the status of materiel.  When materiel is determined to be in excess of approved stock levels and/or no longer serviceable, Supply Condition Codes A through H and S will be utilized to reflect materiel condition prior to turn-in to the DRMO.[1]

 

 

RECORD POSITIONS:                  71

 

CODE

TITLE

EXPLANATION

A

SERVICEABLE (ISSUABLE WITHOUT QUALIFICATION)

New, used, repaired, or reconditioned materiel which is serviceable and issuable to all customers without limitation or restriction.  Includes materiel with more than 6 months shelf-life remaining.

B

SERVICEABLE (ISSUABLE WITH QUALIFICATION)

New, used, repaired, or reconditioned materiel which is serviceable and issuable for its intended purpose but which is restricted from issue to specific units, activities, or geographical areas by reason of its limited usefulness or short service life expectancy.  Includes materiel with 3 through 6 months shelf-life remaining.

C

SERVICEABLE (PRIORITY ISSUE)

Items which are serviceable and issuable to selected customers, but which must be issued before Supply Condition Codes A and B materiel to avoid loss as a usable asset.  Includes materiel with less than 3 months shelf-life remaining.

D

SERVICEABLE (TEST/ MODIFICATION)

Serviceable materiel which requires test, alteration, modification, technical data marking, conversion, or disassembly.  This does not include items which must be inspected or tested immediately prior to issue.

E

UNSERVICEABLE (LIMITED RESTORATION)

Materiel which involves only limited expense or effort to restore to serviceable condition and which is accomplished in the SA where the stock is located.  May be issued to support ammunition requisitions coded to indicate acceptability of usable condition E stock.

F

UNSERVICEABLE (REPARABLE)

Economically reparable materiel which requires repair, overhaul, or reconditioning; includes reparable items which are radioactively contaminated.

G

UNSERVICEABLE (INCOMPLETE)

Materiel requiring additional parts or components to complete the end time prior to issue.

H

UNSERVICEABLE (CONDEMNED)

Materiel which has been determined to be unserviceable and does not meet repair criteria; includes condemned items which are radioactively contaminated; Type I shelf-life materiel that has passed the expiration date; and Type II shelf-life materiel that has passed expiration date and cannot be extended.  (NOTE: Classify obsolete and excess materiel to its proper condition before consigning to the DRMO.  Do not classify materiel in Supply Condition H unless it is truly unserviceable and does not meet repair criteria.)

I

NOT ASSIGNED

Reserved for future DoD assignment.

J

SUSPENDED (IN STOCK)

Materiel in stock which has been suspended from issue pending condition classification or analysis, where the true condition is not known.  Includes shelf-life Type II materiel that has reached the expiration date pending inspection, test, or restoration.

K

SUSPENDED (RETURNS)

Materiel returned from customers or users and awaiting condition classification.

L

SUSPENDED (LITIGATION)

Materiel held pending litigation or negotiation with contractors or common carriers.

M

SUSPENDED (IN WORK)

Materiel identified on inventory control record but which has been turned over to a maintenance facility or contractor for processing.

N

SUSPENDED (AMMUNITION SUITABLE FOR EMERGENCY COMBAT USE ONLY)

Ammunition stocks suspended from issue except for emergency combat use.

O

NOT ASSIGNED

Reserved for future DoD assignment.

P

UNSERVICEABLE (RECLAMATION)

Materiel determined to be unserviceable, uneconomically reparable as a result of physical inspection, teardown, or engineering decision.  Item contains serviceable components or assemblies to be reclaimed.

Q

SUSPENDED (QUALITY DEFICIENT EXHIBITS)

This code is for intra-Air Force use only.  Quality deficient exhibits returned by customers/users as directed by the IMM due to technical deficiencies reported by Quality Deficiency Report.  Exhibit requires technical or engineering analysis to determine cause of failure to perform in accordance with specifications.

R

SUSPENDED (RECLAIMED ITEMS, AWAITING CONDITION DETERMINATION)

Assets turned in by reclamation activities which do not have the capability (e.g., skills, manpower, or test equipment) to determine the materiel condition.  Actual condition will be determined prior to induction into maintenance activities for repair/modification.

S

UNSERVICEABLE (SCRAP)

Materiel that has no value except for its basic materiel content.  No stock will be recorded as on hand in Supply Condition Code S.  This code is used only on transactions involving shipments to DRMOs.  Materiel will not be transferred to Supply Condition Code S prior to turn-in to DRMOs if materiel is recorded in Supply Condition Codes A through H at the time materiel is determined excess.  Materiel identified by NSN will not be identified by this supply condition code.

T, U

NOT ASSIGNED

Reserved for future DoD assignment.

V[2]

Unserviceable (waste military munitions)

Waste military munitions will be assigned Code V only under the authority of a designated DoD or Service designated disposition authority.  The waste munitions must meet criteria of waste munitions under the Environmental Protection Agency Military Munitions Rule Implementation Policy, be safe to store and ship based on DoD Explosive Safety Board/Department of Transportation criteria and have a current serviceability inspection. (NOTE:  SCC V assets are not authorized for turn-in to DRMO.  The Services are responsible for appropriate disposal of SCC V assets.)

W[3], X, Y, Z

NOT ASSIGNED

Reserved for future DoD assignment.

 

 

DISPOSAL CONDITION CODES

7

Repairable.  Property which is unusable in its current condition but can be economically repaired.

X

S

Scrap.  Property which has no value except for its basic materiel content. 

 

 

 

[1]Refer to the DoD 4140.27-M for serviceability timeframes associated with shelf-life items.  Supply Condition Codes J through R, and V, will not be used for materiel turn-ins to the DRMO.

[2] Joint inter-Component implementation of SCC V is effective August 2003.  SCC V may be used on an intra-Service basis immediately.

 

[3] SCC W is approved for specific use by AMCL 3 (available at: http://www.dla.mil/j-6/dlmso/Changes/Default.htm), but is not yet implemented.  SCC W is not available for assignment other than as approved by AMCL 3.
