This appendix describes the capabilities of AWRDS. AWRDS is the automated system used to transfer property accountability during APL operations.

AWRDS was developed for the AWRSPTCMD as a deployable module of the SDS. It is an automated system designed to facilitate the transfer of responsibility of pre-positioned stocks from AMC to using units. It is capable of supporting rapid military deployment anywhere in the world. It provides the ability to--

• Build and maintain a database containing APL stocks and equipment data reflecting how the APL stocks are configured.
• Retrieve information and provide visibility into containers, vehicles, trailers, and multi-pack items on a real-time basis in the form of reports, listings, or data sets.
• Utilize automated identification technology to collect equipment data and track and maintain changes in cargo configuration.
• Perform readiness reporting.
• Track equipment at unit identification code/national stock number (UIC/NSN)/serial number level.

AWRDS exports data to SDS; Total Asset Visibility (TAV); Worldwide Port System (WPS); and retail STAMISs consisting of SPBS-R, SARSS, and ULLS-G. It provides the supply, maintenance, accountability, and equipment data in the proper format to rapidly upload unit or set information into the drawing unit's SPBS-R, ULLS-G, Standard Army Maintenance System (SAMS), and SARSS.
