MTMC's Requirements Document Concerning the Department of Defense 
(DOD) Personal Property Program

AGENCY: Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC), DOD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: MTMC is engaged in re-engineering the existing DOD Personal 
Property Program in an effort to simplify the process, control program 
costs, and ensure quality of service. The re-engineering effort will 
adopt, to the fullest extent possible, proven commercial business 
practices and relieve carriers of DOD unique terms and conditions. The 
objective of this re-engineering effort is to enhance the quality of 
life for our service members and their families. As a result of this on 
going effort, MTMC has published a draft requirements document that 
provides details to industry concerning the anticipated requirements to 
participate in the movement of personal property for DOD. The initial 
draft of the requirements documents is provided with the intent to give 
industry the opportunity to comment on the feasibility of the proposal. 
MTMC requests that industry provide their input, suggestions, and 
constructive criticism concerning the draft requirement document. 
Additionally, MTMC intends to hold regional meetings with any 
interested carriers in August 1995 at various locations throughout the 
United States. More information on dates and places will be 
forthcoming.

DATES: Comments must be received by 20 September 1995.

ADDRESSES: Mail comments to Headquarters, Military Traffic Management 
Command, ATTN: MTOP-Q, 5611 Columbia Pike, Falls Church, VA 22041-5050.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Joe DeLucia, MTOP-QE, [phone].
