Scope and Applicability.

This instruction applies to all activities involved with the functional or technical management of BUPERS IT Systems.

Purpose.

To establish policy and reporting requirements to be followed in response to maintenance, functional degradation, outages, and urgent situations for Bureau of Navel Personnel (BUPERS) information technology (IT) systems. This instruction specifies the guideline for reporting. Major revisions include the removal of several BUPERS administrative responsibilities, as the majority of systems are hosted in a data center or in the Cloud. Removed definitions, as the configuration change review board (CCRB) handles the associated duties and all maintenance actions are explained and approved at the CCRB. Removed report templates and inserted the report requirements and the security group e-mail address.
