SD-19 Parts Management GuideIn todays acquisition environment-characterized by rapidly changing designs, increased risk for Department of Defense DoD weapon systems and equipment acquisition contracts due to an increase in the use of commercial part types, offshore manufacture of parts, and Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages DMSMS-the need for contractors to have an effective Parts Management Program PMP is greater than ever before.The PMP is an integral part of the acquisition process for design, development, modification, and support of weapon systems and equipment.

and require different assembly processes. Their performance is not fully characterized to sup- port qualification and repair requirements. In addition, military applications have required part finishes compatible with tin-lead solder.

The risks posed by the commercial supply chain's transition to lead-free parts require imple- mentation of disciplined risk management approaches that are documented in a lead-free con- trol plan. Two industry standards address the primary issues involved with the current electronics supply chain: TechAmerica GEIA-STD-0005-1, "Performance Standard for Aero- space and High Performance Electronic Systems Containing Lead-free Solder," and GEIA- STD-0005-2, "Standard for Mitigating the Effects of Tin Whiskers in Aerospace and High Performance Electronic Systems." An effective parts management plan must include provisions that address the requirements of these standards.

Parts Management Plan Structure

DI-SDMP-81748 contains the format and content instructions for data required in a parts management plan. This DID specifies that the plan shall be in the contractor's format.

The following is an example of a structure for a parts management plan.

1 Cover Page. General cover page content.

	1.1	Approved By Signature List. Capture list of approval signatures needed for the plan.
	1.2	Record of Revision. Track revision history.
	1.3	References. List references mentioned in the plan.
2	Scope.
	2.1	Objective. Define objective of the plan.
	2.2	Applicability. Define what program/system the plan applies to.
	2.2.1	Applicable Part and Material Categories. Define the types of parts, materials, and processes the plan applies to.
	2.2.2	Applicable Documents. List specifications, standards, handbooks, etc., that form a part of the plan.
	2.3	Definitions. Define appropriate terms used in the plan.

3 Parts Management Infrastructure. Detail the enabling resources and capabilities available for the program.

3.1 Parts Team Participants. List the representatives from the specific organizations that will participate as core members of the parts team; this includes customer participation. (The parts team is typically responsible for the overall parts management program.)
