a. To support modernization systems in units, by linking major component items with therequired end items or weapons systems and to preclude double counting of ASIOE.

b. To continue to support readiness requirements of the current force.

11. The DAMPL Priority sequence number format.a. The DAMPL number in the SAMAS consists of five digits. The first digit identifies the

FAD (modified to Arabic presentation for DAMPL use). Table D-1 displays the relationshipof FAD assignment to deployment requirements and urgency of need for specific material.

b. The second, third, and fourth digits define the relative priority standing with the FADgroupings.

C h a p t e r 2 o f A R725-50 contains a more detailed discussion of this Issue Priority Designator (IPD) matrix.

D–2. The Army aligns its Equipment Readiness Codes (ERCs) for TOEs with the urgencyof need designators.

D–3. The logic of the DOD guidance reflected in the IPD matrix is as follows:a. The ERC A requirements of forces deploying in the first 30 days receive the highest

priority for requisitioning, issue, and movement of material (IPD 01 through 03). The ERC-B requirements of these forces are the next priority (IPD 04 through 06).

b. Next are the ERC-A and ERC-B requirements for all other deployers (IPD 07 through10).

c. Lowest in priority are ERC-C requirements (ancillary items) which DOD issues/movesin IPD sequence (IPD 11 through 15).

d. DOD emphasizes priority support of early deploying forces (NLT D+30).e . . F o r C l a s s V I I , t h e w h o l e s a l e s u p p l y s y s t e m i s s u e s i n E R C / D A M P L s e q u e n c e , t h a t
