18. Other Procurement, Army (OPA)
PURPOSE
OPA is used to fund major end-item investments and/or table of Authorization equipment to provide core capabilities to Army units.
GENERAL GUIDANCE Tactical and support vehicles, major communication and electronic equipment, centrally managed items, or equipment/systems costing equal to or more than $250K
SLIDE 18: Other Procurement, Army (OPA)
While OMA funds day-to-day operations, OPA is typically used for centrally managed items, large pieces of equipment, or systems that exceed established thresholds or is the purpose of some other major procurement account. Generally speaking, OPA is used to provide Modified Table of Equipment (MTOE) items for operational capabilities in Army units.
PROCESS/LIMITATIONS:
Due to the nature of this appropriation, OPA requires more planning lead-time than OMA. USFOR-A does not generally receive OPA funding.
2. Units request OPA funds by submitting an Operational Needs Statement through J3 up to the Army Requirements and Resourcing Board (AR2B). See
Operational Need Statement (ONS)/Joint Urgent ONS (JUONS) section of the MAAWS-A for more detail.
3. When USFOR-A receives OPA, it is for the purchase of specific items. USFORA does not have discretionary OPA funds.
4. When OPA funds are required for the purchase of specific line items, USFOR-A J8 coordinates the request through ARCENT with Army Budget Office to fund OPA requirements.
