POC:  ARDE, (703) 614-1712, Room 1209.

Access - Customer access is not restricted, all personnel assigned to duty at Headquarters Marine Corps have "Customer" access.  If you are having problems accessing ERS, or otherwise require systems level assistance such as loading the ICON to your Notes Desktop, contact ARDE.  Access to the appropriation data portions of requisitions is restricted to Fund Administrators and their designated Work Center Managers, and access to the Procurement data portions is restricted to HQMC Contracting Personnel.
POC:  ARDE, (703) 614-1712, Room 1209.

Send/Status Requisition - Changing the status of the electronic requisition sends the requisition to the code selected – commodity manager, customer, or fund administrator.  IMPORTANT - when a requisition is “Sent to Customer,” and the customer does not respond, the requisition is canceled after 30 days.  Optimally, you should check the ERS daily for your requisitions under "Sent to Customer."

There are several reasons:

    a.  ERS is used not only to submit requisitions but as the basis for paying bills.  To certify the bills for payment, we need you to tell us if/when you receive goods or services we have procured for you.  For example, if you have asked us to have a fax repaired, we use ERS "Sent to Customer" to tell you when to expect the repairperson and ask that you edit the document to say if and when the repair was completed.  After doing that you need to change the status to "Complete" and enter the status date.  The requisition then can serve as the "Report of Property Received" (RPR) so we can certify the bill and send it to Disbursing.

    b.  We may have returned a requisition for more information or to tell you what action is being taken on your requisition.  If we have asked for additional or clarifying information, please edit the document accordingly and this is very important, change the status to return the requisition to whomever asked the question or to whomever the sender directed you to.  The codes under Status mean:

”Sent to ARDD (Cust Serv)” Customer Service is the automatic default for all ERS requests after they are composed, saved and sent.  Customer Service Reps (CSR's) are responsible for making sure requisitions can be processed by program/commodity managers and Procurement.  CSR's review requisitions for recommended sources; complete and/or sole source justifications; and clarification when a requirement is not clear.  If the requisition is complete, the CSR sends the requisition electronically to the program/commodity manager for clearance or to the appropriate action office.

"Sent to ARDD" (Facilities Management Section) - ARDD receives all requisitions for CAD Design Services, Carpet Cleaning, Locking Devices, Movers, Renovations, Worksite Repairs, and Window Treatments.

"Sent to ARDE" (Publishing & Logistics Systems Management Section) - ARDE receives all requisitions for Office Equipment (copiers, shredders, faxes, electronic whiteboards); Office Equipment Repairs, Digital Reproduction; Printing Acquisition; Forms Design; and GO/SES Stationary and Flags.

"Sent to ARI" (Information Resources Management Branch & Telecommunications Section) – ARI must approve the procurement of all Communications Support (telephones, blackberries, PDAs, cell phones, pagers, headsets); and IT equipment (hardware, peripherals, software, desktop printers, scanners).   "Awaiting Delivery" – Commodity has been ordered and customer is waiting for delivery. 
 

 

EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE CONTRACTS.  ARDE funds for maintenance contracts covering non-IT equipment purchased by ARDiv.  Maintenance contracts covering equipment purchased with staff agency/command program funds must be funded by the staff agency/command. To request/establish a maintenance contract for staff agency/command owned equipment, the customer enters the request via the ERS.  ARDE will review the request, provide a cost estimate, and recommended source, and forward the ERS request back to the customer.  If cost is $2500 and under, the customer can execute the micro-purchase with their own GCPC.  If the requirement exceeds $2500, the customer must submit the requirement to RCO, NE Quantico via PR Builder.

MESSAGES

    a.  UNCLASSIFIED

        (1) Outgoing.  The Defense Messaging System (DMS) has replaced AUTODIN as the primary messaging capability for CMC Washington, DC.  The DMS program is a DoD initiative to standardize messaging and develop a true “writer to reader” messaging capability.  The Arlington Annex Communications Center has been redesignated as the HQMC Local Control Center and maintains all DMS systems administration capability to include Distinguished Name (DN) input to the DoD Directory Information Tree (DIT) and responsibility for coordination with ARS for the necessary FORTEZZA Card support required for Digitally Encrypting and Signing DMS Messages.  With the exception of ALMAR and MARADMIN Messages which must be sent via CMC WASHINGTON DC (an address officially maintained at the HQMC LCC), authorized DMS message drafters and releasers for HQMC will no longer be required to electronically transfer messages to the Communications Center for transmission.  Rather they will release digitally encrypted and signed messages directly from their desktop using the systems support from the HQMC LCC.  DMS Version 3.0 is also now supporting all SPECIAL CATEGORY (SPECAT), LIMDIS, and FOCAL POINT messages.  IAW DoD and Marine Corps policies, the HQMC LCC will not process AUTODIN messages for transmission.  Any AUTODIN message receive for transmission will be immediately returned to the drafting organization for reprocessing into DMS.

FOB #2 POC:  ARIE, (703) 614-1721, Room 2418.

 

        (2) Incoming.  Incoming DMS messages will be delivered directly to the Distinguished Names (DN) listed in the address of the DMS Messages and routed through the Defense Message Distribution System (DMDS) by key words and organization via the outlook public folders.  The HQMC LCC will contact designated staff agency representatives in the event any Immediate Action or above AUTODIN incoming messages are received.  It is normally the staff agency’s responsibility to pick up and sign for these specific messages.  

FOB #2 POC:  ARIE, (703) 614-1721, Room 2418.

 

    b.  CLASSIFIED.  Classified message traffic will be processed as discussed above but with the support and coordination of POC GCCS in the identification and support of the designated SIPRNET accounts required to support classified DMS Messaging.  The HQMC LCC also maintains a Top Secret/Collateral (TS/C) dial-in DMS capability for authorized HQMC users. 

FOB #2 POC:  ARIE, (703) 614-1721, Room 2418.

 

    c.  AUTODIN LEGACY SUPPORT.  AUTODIN messaging will continue to be supported through FY03 until DMS transition is completed throughout DoD and the entire Intelligence Community. Multifunction Interpreters (MFIs) will be established to support the routing of AUTODIN messages to DMS and visa versa.  ARIE will provide Unclassified, Classified, and Top Secret AUTODIN support for all authorized HQMC users until DOD directs the termination of all AUTODIN Switching Centers and services.

FOB #2 POC:  ARIE, (703) 614-1721, Room 2418.

 

    d.  PERSONAL FOR (P-FOR).  General Officers will continue to send and receive P-For messages via AUTODIN with subsequent distribution of the P-FOR messages through E-mail.  Since DMS is meant to support true “writer to reader” official messaging capabilities it is envisioned that P-FOR message processing will no longer be required as it was with the AUTODIN messaging system once General Officers realize the capability and privacy afforded using DMS messaging capabilities, to include the digital encryption and signature of messages.  Lastly, although planned DMS upgrades will support P-For messaging capability, AUTODIN will continue to be the primary P-FOR messaging platform until the Defense Information Systems Agency/ Office of the Secretary of Defense establishes DOD wide policies and procedures regarding DMS P-FOR messaging.

FOB #2 POC:  ARIE, (703) 614-1721, Room 2418.

 

PHONES & PAGERS.  ARI TELECOM is the service provider for all cellular telephones and pagers as well as phone service outside Quantico.  HQMC activities at MCB-Quantico should contact ARD-2 on issues relating to telephones.  Identify your phone requirements in the Electronic Requisitioning System (ERS).
