GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  Purpose.  To announce the establishment and 
mandatory utilization of the Transportation Capacity Planning Tool
(TCPT) Utilities (UT) Module (TUM) for all Utilities Equipment 
Operations (UEO).  TUM significantly enhances the management, 
accountability, and operational readiness of utilities equipment 
across the Marine Corps.  All units involved in UEO are directed to
implement the TUM immediately. This Marine Administrative Message 
(MARADMIN) also solicits feedback and concerns associated with TCPT.
2.  Background.
2.a.  There is currently no standardized policy or procedure 
managing UEO across the Fleet Marine Force (FMF).  As logistics
support in a contested environment becomes increasingly challenging,
particularly with distributed operations, providing real-time 
awareness of equipment availability and ensuring efficient support 
plans are paramount to mission success.
2.b.  After review, study, requests for information to industry, and
multiple working groups, the UT community identified TCPT as the 
system to provide a modernized tool for supporting UEO.  The TUM 
streamlines UEO requests, provides real-time awareness of UT 
resources, and offers robust operational data collection.
3.  Functionalities.  The TUM provides the following functions:
3.a.  Centralizes access to all utilities-related functions,
improving system navigation, onboarding, and usability for new and
existing users.
3.b.  Allows requesting units to submit requests for UT support 
utilizing a Utilities Support Request (USR).
3.c.  Supporting units can create and manage operations designed to
fulfill USRs.
3.d.  Expedites access to relevant operational data, enabling faster
decision-making and improved responsiveness.
3.e.  Integrates logistics planning within operational workflows.
3.f.  Users can generate site-specific operation logs.
3.g.  Offers a unit-level view of “pending” and “planned to” support
efforts, allowing for better allocation of resources and forecasting.
3.h.  Allows supporting units to export the USR location items, 
platforms, and consumers into the AutoDISE import template.
3.i.  Units are able to see total equipment capacity calculated 
using metrics from power production/storage, HVAC-R cooling/heating,
and water production/storage.
4.  Execution.  
4.a.  As of the date of this MARADMIN, all Marine Corps units 
involved in UEO are directed to utilize the TUM for all UEO 
processes, including:
4.a.1.  Equipment requests using the USR functionality.
4.a.2.  Equipment tracking.
4.a.3.  Maintenance scheduling.
4.a.4.  Personnel licensing tracking in accordance (IAW) with 
reference (a).
4.a.5.  Operational reporting.
4.a.6.  Utilities dispatching (independent of transportation).
4.a.7.  Managing USR and operations.
4.a.8.  Managing operational data through a downloadable operation
log.
4.b.  Legacy UEO tracking methods should be decommissioned 
immediately and fully transitioned to TUM.
4.c.  Training.
4.c.1.  References (b) and (c) describe the procedures to attend
initial TUM training.  
4.c.2.  Additional training beyond the scope of references (b) and
(c) can be requested per instructions in paragraph 4.f. and is 
required for all TUM users.
4.c.3.  Training for existing TUM users must be completed within 90
days from the release of this MARADMIN.
4.d.  Data migration.  Personnel, personnel licenses, and equipment
profiles are foundational pillars of TCPT.  Without these profiles, 
equipment cannot be dispatched in support of a transportation 
mission or a utilities operation.  A solid understanding of how to
import assets into TCPT is essential to minimize potential issues 
during this process.  Units will migrate existing UT equipment, 
personnel, and license data into TUM IAW reference (d) if they have
not already done so.
4.e.  Field Service Software Engineer (FSSE) Engagement.
4.e.1.  Coordinate with local FSSEs for support during the 
transition to TUM.  FSSE responsibilities include approving TCPT
accounts for Marines in support of importing personnel and 
equipment, creating UT units in TCPT upon request from the unit 
leadership, and providing technical support and over-the-shoulder 
training.
4.e.2.  FSSEs will conduct physical or virtual training for TUM new
users.  Contact local FSSEs to schedule additional training.
4.e.3.  Contact information for local FSSEs is available at https://
mls2support.com.
4.f.  Access management.  New users may request access to TCPT per 
instructions in the MLS2 helpdesk portal at https://mls2support.com
and register for a TCPT user account at https://tcpt.usmc.mil/tcpt.
4.g.  Local policy development.  Major subordinate commands are 
directed to develop and implement local policies governing UEO 
following the intent of this MARADMIN.  These policies should 
address specific requirements and operational considerations within
their respective commands, while ensuring consistency with the 
overall objectives of standardized and efficient UEO.
4.h.  Feedback request.  Provide all feedback and concerns 
associated with either the integration of utilities equipment in 
TCPT or the use of TCPT as the primary tool for managing UEO to the
TCPT Program Office by emailing support@mls2support.com or through 
the MLS2 helpdesk at https://mls2support.com.
5.  Administrative Information.
5.a.  Units requiring assistance with TCPT implementation or 
troubleshooting may contact the MLS2 helpdesk at https://mls2support
.com or call 888-529-6516.
5.b.  All personnel are reminded that UEO processes are governed by
applicable regulations and policies, particularly references (a) and
(e).  Deviations from established procedures require prior approval
from the appropriate authority.
6.  Command and signal
6.a.  This MARADMIN is applicable to the Marine Corps total force
but excludes equipment in Depot Maintenance Float Allowance, 
Preposition programs, and War Reserve Stocks.
6.b.  This message is effective immediately upon release and remains
in effect until superseded by future policy.
6.c.  Any questions should be directed to the POCs as indicated
above.
7.  Release authorized by Lieutenant General Stephen D. Sklenka,
Deputy Commandant, Installations and Logistics.//
