It lists various components of the ammunition, including raw materials and their manufacturers, along with relevant specifications and revisions. Furthermore, it notes inspection dates, shipping details, and quality assurance codes. The card serves as a “birth certificate” for the ammunition lot, essential for malfunction investigations and ensuring safety standards in manufacturing. It includes remarks on delivery orders, serial number ranges for samples, and information on variances. It highlights the importance of traceability and quality verification in government contracts for munitions, ensuring compliance with military standards. The document also outlines the procedures for accessing the Worldwide Ammunition Repository Program (WARP) for managing ammunition data efficiently. This summary encapsulates the essence of the file, emphasizing its role in the accountability and safety of ammunition manufacture and distribution.
    The Statement of Work (SOW) for the USAF and USN concerning Ammunition Data Cards (ADC) outlines the necessary standards and procedures for preparing ADCs in accordance with MIL-STD-1168 and the Worldwide Ammunition-data Repository Program (WARP). Key requirements include accurate documentation for energetic materials, traceability through original manufacturer records, and adherence to safety protocols. The contractor must enter detailed information, including part and lot numbers, as well as manage traceability documentation to facilitate future product recalls. The ADCs must be submitted for government approval before shipment, with a sample ADC generated in WARP for first-time submissions. Compliance with traceability requirements is emphasized, with protocols established for both hardware and materials used in munitions. Additionally, the SOW includes guidance on accessing WARP, procedures for email notifications upon ADC submission status changes, and requirements for updating system administrators on new contracts. Ultimately, this SOW aims to ensure accountability and safety in munitions management through stringent documentation and traceability measures.
