Study Notes

Requisition Numbers (RQN)

RQN includes three essential components: Federal Supply Class, Country Code, and Unique ID.
Two types of RQNs:
- Non-Operational Ready Supply (NORS) requires a CASREP report.
- Anticipated Non-Operational Ready Supply (ANORS) does not require a CASREP.

Allowance Parts List (APL)

APL is a technical document listing components for specific equipment.
Found in Coordinated Shipboard Allowance List (COSAL) or Operational Maintenance Management System (OMMS).
Parts are ordered against the APL by maintenance personnel.

Allowance Equipment List (AEL)

AEL comprises parts and supplies necessary for the ship's operation.

Operational Target (OPTAR) and Temporary Additional Duty Travel Target (TADTAR)

OPTAR allocates funds for consumable products and emergency repairs.
TADTAR funds travel for training, emergencies, or non-Navy conferences.
