Issues with SF-97

As of today we have 54 pending USMC EUCs. The one investigator that is in charge of the USMC EUCs at TSC was out last week on PTO. The last group of approvals we received was on 11/20. I would expect to see some roll in this week. The approvals are sent to the USMC Project Manager, instead of directly to us like the DLA approvals, so we are dependent on not just one government entity but two which causes a great deal of lag time in the whole process.

Wondering if 2 of my sf97's fell through the cracks then (request sent 11Sept). I'll wait to contact you PHasty until the end of next week since you mentioned that a bunch are being mailed out the first week of December.

Congratulations, Your EUC for sale ....... has been approved!

Purchased 12 Sep. Now to make pick up arrangements, planning to pick her up myself, not too far from home (300 mi +/- each way), uHaul car transporter.

Best day ever...

Here is this week's EUC Update:

TSC busted out 81 approvals this week, unfortunately not all of the 9/19 group was approved. There are still 18 pending. USMC EUCs have stalled with only 5 approvals this week. If your submission was August or Before, we have already submitted an official inquiry as to the status of your EUC (USMC HMMWVS only). There are only 3 outstanding EUCs prior to Sept for DLA units and those have already been addressed.

9/19 and Later: 21
9/25: 35
10/3: 66
10/10: 40
10/17: 39

Ran into a small obstacle this week regarding the SF97s and Titles. I am down 3 personnel since Friday, 2 of which are the ones actually in charge of processing the SF97s. I am hopeful that 2 of them will be able return tomorrow. The 3rd was just released from the hospital today, so I am expecting him to be out maybe for the rest of the week. No accidents or injuries, just the psychotic Texas weather we are having is playing heck on everyone's systems and those 3 were hit pretty hard. We are doing our best to get the ones we have processed and sent out but the numbers reflect the fact that the team is at 50% manning. We will keep pushing 'em out as fast as we can and keep clearing the hurdles as they come. On the bright side, there is a pretty big announcement forthcoming, and I will post about it once it is official!!

Congrats to everyone approved this week!

Here is this week's EUC Update:

TSC sent out 77 approvals this week, and all but 3 EUCs from 9/19 or older have been approved. We received 18 USMC approvals, and unofficial approval on another 14 (TSC has approved them, however they have not worked their way through the USMC notification channels).

9/19 and Later: 3
9/25: 9
10/3: 65
10/10: 37
10/17: 35

On the SF97 front, still dealing with the Flu epidemic here in the office. Today is actually my first full day back since last Weds, and it was a crap show. The entire FTW office is at around 50-60% manning right now as it has taken a toll on everyone, not just the GP folks. My guys are still pushing them out, in fact we just received approx 70 Montana and Florida Titles late yesterday that the team is concentrating on getting out today and tomorrow. I am scheduled to head to Battle Creek tomorrow and won't be back in the office until Monday. Hopefully after this meeting I will have updates in regards to the Non Rolling Stock Contract and any associated timelines.

Congrats to everyone approved this week!
