TM 9-6115-545-24PTO 35C2-3 4144 4NAVFAC P626-24PSL-400038G/07499Ac.(USMC) Special Stockage Indicator Code and Replacement Factor (Column 3).(1) Special Stockage Indicator Code (Column 3a).This column reflects the condition under which certainmaintenance parts, (parts assigned NSNs and coded in the "P" series source code of the SMR code), are stocked. Thecodes are explained as follows:CodeDescriptionNo CodeIndicates that the part may or may not be authorized in initial allowances to using or supporting organizations.The manner of determining initial allowances is explained in paragraph (2) below.IApplied to maintenance parts which predicted consumption would not warrant inclusion in Mount-Out but, forwhich a quantity of one (1) is authorized as insurance for Mount-Out using a 360-day criterion. This criterionis based on the total Onsity of equipment employed by the DIV/WING TEAM. Mount-Out allowances, soauthorized, will be stocked by the FSR or the MWSG in the case of MARINE Wing peculiar equipment, asapplicable.DApplied to maintenance parts that are not considered critical or essential to be on hand and, therefore, are notauthorized in initial allowances; however, these items are stocked within the Supply System and may berequisitioned based upon usage.TIndicates that the part is authorized in garrison operating allowances in order to comply with state and locallaws; however, the part is not authorized in Mount-Out since it is not combat essential.(2) Replacement Factor (Column 3b).This column reflects the replacement factor assigned to each NationalStock Number maintenance repair part on its first appearance in the publication. The replacement factor, expressed as adecimal, indicates the average rate at which the type of item so coded has been used by Marine Corps field units or therate at which design engineers anticipate the item will fail, wear out, or otherwise require replacement. All computationsare based on a replacement period of one year. Therefore, a replacement factor of 0.08, applied to an item in this stocklist, indicates that eight out of every one hundred such items used in the end item of equipment to which this publicationpertains, is predicted to need replacement in one year. Likewise, 0.004 reflects that four out of every thousand in use arepredicted to require replacement in one year, while 2.0 shows that every one in use is predicted to be replaced twiceduring each year.(a) Initial authorized stockage levels of consumable and salvageable items for an organization are to becomputed for predicted consumption based on the number of items employed and/or supported by an organization withinthe number of days for which stockage is authorized. In computing Garrison Operating Stock or Mount-Out, authorizedlevels can be determined by the requiring Marine Corps unit by multiplying the replacement factor times the quantityused per equipment, times the number of end items employed by the using organization or supported by the serviceorganization, times the authorized day level expressed in months and divided by 12. Specific formulas and examplesare provided in Marine Corps Order, MCO P4400.79The replacement factors used in initial stockage computations should be revised, if warranted, aftersignificant usage is experienced in accordance with the guidelines of MCO 4400.32A. The following formulareplacement factor "X" represents actual usage experience (1 year), "A" represents the application per equipment, and"B" represents the number of equipments supported.W = XA x B(b) Initial allowances for maintenance float items (recoverability codes "R" and "D") for the FMF andappropriate post and stations are as furnished by Initial Issue Actions.Changes to maintenance replacement rates resulting from actual usage may require recomputation ofmaintenance float allowances by holding units. Any required recomputation of maintenance float allowances will bemade in accordance with MCO 4000.6.(c) The replacement factor for same as (S/A) items is indicated upon the first appearance of the item in themajor combination, component or assembly.5
