Statement of Work (SOW)

This Statement of Work (SOW) outlines the requirements for preparing Ammunition Data Cards (ADCs) for the USAF & USN. The ADCs are to be prepared in accordance with MIL-STD-1168 and tailored for the CAD/PAD program requirements as specified.

• Ammunition Data Cards (ADCs): Contractors must prepare ADCs following MIL-STD-1168 and MIL-STD-962, using the Worldwide Ammunition-data Repository Program (WARP).
• Energetic Materials: All energetic materials (including constituents) used in assemblies and sub-assemblies must be entered with their common name, original manufacturer's part number & revision, lot number, and date of manufacture.
• Traceability: Traceability for energetic materials and hardware components is critical and must be ensured through original manufacturer's documentation (e.g., COC, COA, QAR, Batch Record). Materials that do not affect reliability or safety (e.g., solvents, paints) do not need to be listed.
• Internal Part Numbers: Contractors may list their own internal part numbers but must also include the actual manufacturer's part number, lot number, and date of manufacture in a searchable format within WARP.
• GFM/GFP: Government Furnished Material/Government Provided items must retain their original government part/lot numbers and nomenclature.
• Hardware Components: Must be fully traceable by original manufacturer's lot identification information. Non-age degradable materials do not require the actual date of manufacture.
• Sample ADC: A "sample" ADC must be generated and approved in WARP before submitting final production lot ADCs.
• Submission: Final ADCs must be completed in WARP and uploaded for Invoicing, Receipt, Acceptance, and Property Transfer (iRAPT) prior to shipment.

Not explicitly stated in this document, but implies ongoing contract work related to ammunition data management.

• WARP Access: Contractors require access to the Munitions History Program (MHP)-WARP system. Access procedures are detailed for users with and without CAC cards, including obtaining necessary digital certificates.
• Notifications: Contractors must notify WARP administrators within 30 days of receiving a new contract, providing contract details and information on individuals inputting ADCs. New producers must obtain a Manufacturer's identification symbol if they do not have one.
• Hard Copy: A hard copy of the applicable ADC(s) must be included with each shipment.
