1. Defense Readiness Reporting System – Strategic (DRRS-S) PXO Course
01 September, 2019
Presented by
CNAP/CNAL N40

2. Why all the Changes? NMETL Reduction DRRS-S Transition
In June 2018, USFF mandated that all Navy units reduce the size of their METLs to support more accurate and timely readiness reporting to OPNAV, Joint Staff, and Congress.
All Aviation NMETLs have been reduced and all units will be reporting on their reduced NMETL by the USFF 30 June 2019 deadline
Reduced NMETLs are a prerequisite for the DRRS-S transition
DRRS-S Transition
On 13 August, the President signed the FY19 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which mandates that all services will report readiness using DRRS-S (Joint version of DRRS) by the end of FY19
USFF mandated that all Navy units shall transition to DRRS-S by 30 Aug 2019

3. Summary of Reporting Changes
DRRS-S contains two separate assessments:
Commander’s DRRS-S Assessments
The Commander shall assess all METs, MET standards, and Core
Assessing MET standards vice using PESTO data is unique to DRRS-S
Status of Resources and Training (SORTS) Assessment
The SORTS assessment is still required by CJCS
The SORTS C levels shall be consistent with the DRRS-S assessments
NSIT (Navy SORTS Input Tool) is the application within DRRS-S that allows Navy units to input SORTS data.
More exposure to all SORTS data
Just cover what is shown on the slide.

4. Summary of Software Changes
DRRS-N DRRS-S
PESTO pillar data
OARS Page (SORTS)
Single Submit button
DRRS-N Afloat (ships)
MET Standards NSIT Tool (SORTS) + Full SORTS data Separate approval buttons (MET, Core, NSIT) No DRRS-S Afloat

5. MET Standards Met Description Standards Assessment MET Assessment
Comments
What is a Standard?
A standard consists of a descriptive performance measure and performance criteria that defines full mission capability
The criteria is the established value that determines if the standard is achieved or not achieved
How are standards used in DRRS-S?
Standards are applied to each MET with criteria and assessed/observed options (USFF only requires the assessed option)
Before you can approve a MET in DRRS-S, all standards must be assessed
Just cover what is shown on the slide.

6. Assessments – Commander’s Remarks
CO Comments must be structured to show the following
Overall block
CO summary of top readiness concerns (5-6 lines max)
Issue, Impact, resolution
Current FRTP month, next FRTP event
Expected Deployment/RTHP date
Write the details of your issues in the Personnel, Equipment, and Training blocks.
R+5, Next FRTP event is TSTA (Jul 2019), expected deployment Jan 2020.
Top CO concerns:
Aircrew Manning
Senior Maintenance personnel manning
ACTC generation for newly arrived aircrew
This goes in the CNAF Flag Readiness brief
This provides us the details for talking points

7. Assessments Commander’s Remarks
The issues you comment on in DRRS-S change depending on your FRTP Phase
Maintenance
Aircraft availability to conduct ULT/ACTC generation
Impact of aircraft on loan to NAWDC/TOP GUN/other squadrons or in Depot or MODs
Single shift maintenance due to maintenance manning
Predicting aircrew on board for ARP and AWF
Basic
Aircrew availability and training for ARP/AWF
Managing aircraft MODs /aircraft availability for ARP/AWF/C2X
Execution of ordnance
Integrated/Advanced
Finalizing aircrew training for C2X and turning “Green”
Sustain/Deploy
Degradations due to AOR restrictions on tactical flying
Plan to maintain training while deployed
Ability to retain and train aircrew for post deployment sustainment

8. SORTS Reporting
Joint Staff still requires all services to report legacy SORTS data
The NSIT section of DRRS-S allows Navy units to update SORTS data
NSIT is a separate assessment that still needs to be consistent with DRRS-S
DRRS-S exposes units to the full set of SORTS data that had previously been reported through DRRS-N
Several of the SORTS data sets come from sources other than the unit
Unit registration date
Unit ID data
Data set descriptions will be part of the TYCOM reporting guidance
Just cover what is shown on the slide. 8

9. CVW / CSCW-1 Reporting
Under the reduced METL the old CARR no longer works thus CAG/CSCW-1 report under their staff UIC
The CAG/CSCW-1 staff can view each squadron’s assessment in DRRS-S but not as a group
Squadrons can still submit their comments to the CAG/CSCW-1 to inform the CAG/CDRE comments
The CAG/CSCW-1 comments still reflect the ability of the wing as a whole to perform their various missions

12. DRRS-S Account Permissions
DRRS-S URL (SIPRNET):
The unit of assignment is the unit that you are allowed to edit
Only five accounts per unit are allowed to have Unit Commander Permissions
To get a new DRRS-S Account
Request an account on the DRRS-S homepage. OSD will only create accounts with "View only" permissions
Call the Navy Readiness Support Center (USFF Help Desk) at to have your permission level upgraded to unit commander.
DRRS-S User Roles:
Account Type
Description of Permission Level
Unit Viewer
Read-only access to ESORTS information. Has no ability to edit mission readiness tasks. This is the default role for all new DRRS-S users.
Unit User
Can view draft assessments in the Mission Assessment tool. Has the ability to edit mission readiness tasks that are directly assigned to their user account for their primary unit of assignment.
Unit Commander
Has final approval authority on the submission of the unit’s readiness report. Has read and write capabilities for the unit of assignment. This is the only permission level that can edit and submit data in the Navy SORTS Input Tool.

13. DRRS-S Policy
NTRP (Navy DRRS-N manual) still applies for some parts of DRRS-S
C level guidance
PCTEF policy
Codes & Tables (Activity, deployment, Chem-Bio etc)
USFF serial policy messages
Assessing standards
NSIT data reporting (required reason codes)
Comment writing and format guidance
CNAP/CNAL TYCOM DRRS-N Supplemental Guidance
General reporting guidance
Frequency of reports
TYCOM Supplemental DRRS-S guidance in revision to support DRRS-S

14. DRRS-S Transition Training/Support
Classroom Training
Multiple classroom training will be scheduled during transition at fleet concentration sites and remote sites by request
Routine classroom training will be available after all units have transitioned
CNAF Readiness Reference Tool
Distributed at training classes
/Phone Support
Contact your TYCOM or Wing readiness officers
Navy Readiness Support Center
Account and technical support only

15. Summary DRRS-S Reporting
MET standards must be met to report Green (Y)
Old PESTO inputs still exist in DRRS-N Ashore (read only) to inform the commander’s assessment, but they are not displayed in DRRS-S
Same concepts from DRRS-N still apply (MCO standard, truth in reporting, etc)
Take advantage of the readiness reporting experience at the TYCOM
Call/ us with your questions
Training and support will be provided as we transition systems
We are always available to provide training locally or on the road
