Element 5
Required Delivery Date (RDD)
Element 6
Project Code
The rDD is used when
the standard delivery
date (SDD) cannot meet
unit needs.
It is also used on
high priority requests
for parts that dead-
line unit equipment. see
your equipment TMs
for parts that, when
broke, render the
equipment not
mission capable.
“If you
don’t
assign one,
the system will use the
SDD to meet your needs.”
“
Never
use project codes that your
commander has not approved for use.
The codes expedite delivery of parts
needed in support of special operations
and task forces. Paras 1-29 and 1-30
of AR 725-50, Requisitioning, Issue and
Receipt System
(Nov 95) discuss the
purpose and use of project codes.”
If your requisition
has the right elements
correctly entered,
then you should have
no problems getting
the parts you need
when you need them.
“See Paras 2-4 and 2-5 of DA Pam
710-2-1 for additional information
on the SDD and rDD.”
Finally, Is
there an
authorized
Project Code
for your
requisition?
“Project codes are assigned by HQDA, the Chair-
man of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Secretary of
Defense and the President of the united States.”
“Your commander
will tell you of
all project codes
your unit may use
and when they
should be used.”
