DESCOM TMDE Management Program.

A six-month study was performed to develop a Test, Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment (TMDE) program for the U.S. Army Depot System Command (DESCOM). The major efforts of the study were to develop a DESCOM TMDE Management Program Plan and a DESCOM TMDE Supplement 1 to AR 750-43. This report documents the objectives, technical approach, and results of the study. Appendix A contains the DESCOM TMDE Management Program Plan (DTMPP), which describes the organization, responsibilities, and activities and provides for the establishment of a comprehensive DESCOM TMDE Program. Appendix B contains the DESCOM TMDE Regulation (i.e., DESCOM Supplement 1 to AR 750-43), which directs the implementation of the DTMPP and establishes the purpose, scope, objectives, policies, and procedures of the program. Appendix C lists the DESCOM/depot personnel interviewed during the course of the study, Appendix D lists the documents reviewed, and Appendix E lists the DTMPP TMDE management responsibilities by functional areas.
