Metrics Overview
Assessments
Reporting Rules
DRRS-N Accounts
Training
Transition to DRRS-S
Keys to Success

3. Background – Mission Essential Tasks
METs are tasks considered essential to accomplish and support missions and requirements assigned by a Joint or Naval Commander
The Mission Essential Task List (METL) is based on the Unit’s ROC/POE and Warfare Mission Areas to METs
Each MET contains a set of conditions and standards
The METL is common to all units within a Responsible Organization (RespOrg)

4. Background – DRRS-N
DRRS-N is the tool Navy organizations uses to report MET readiness data to DRRS
Navy DRRS-N Policy Guidance
NTRP
OPNAV
USFF/CPF
CNAP/CNAL
Note: All references can be found in the Resources tab of the CNAF Readiness Reference Tool

5. Background – DRRS-N Data Flow
DRRS-N is comprised of a network of interdependent systems, architectures, databases, and applications. The network provides the means for reporting readiness data when Ashore or Afloat.
ARRS: Afloat Readiness Reporting Server. A server on each ship that houses readiness applications.
IRRI: Innovative Readiness reporting Initiative. IRRI is a software package that resides on the Ship’s CAINS network and contains DRRS-N Afloat.

PESTO Data pillars
The DRRS-N Afloat software lags updates seen in the DRRS-N Ashore software. Units may see two Core missions on DRRS-N Afloat. Only assess the Core that has seven METs.

8. Background – DRRS-N DRRS-N contains two assessments:
Computed Assessment (Automated)
PESTO Pillars (Per, Eqp, Sup, Tng, Ord)
Pre-calculated data from authoritative data sources
Commander’s Assessments (Subjective)
The Commander shall assess Core and all METs
PESTO Pillar data is provided to assist the Commander in making an assessment
The Commander’s Core assessment, MET assessments, and OARS page data are the only data that flow up beyond Navy lifelines to DRRS-S
Note: DRRS-N has two similar software input tools, DRRS-N Ashore (used when land based) and DRRS-N Afloat (used by ships and embarked units)

9. Metrics Overview – DRRS-N Data Sources
DRRS-N compiles unit resource values (called FOMs or Figures of Merit), using authoritative data sources. These values and associated data are available to the Commander as a guide for making unit assessments.

11. Commander’s Assessments
Assessments – Types
The Commander assesses the following areas with a Y, Q, or N:
The METs
The Core
In addition, the Commander shall update the OARS (Organization and Resource Status) data. OARS will be discussed later. 1
Commander’s
Assessments 2 3

12. Commander’s Assessments
Assessments – Commander’s Assessment
The following values are used when assessing the Core and MET assessment blocks:
Commander’s
Assessments

13. Assessments – Commander’s Assessment
The following values are used to assess the Core and MET assessments:
The unit can successfully perform an assigned MET to the prescribed standards and conditions. A “Yes” assessment should reflect demonstrated performance in training and operations.
(Used when data may not readily support a “Yes” assessment). The unit is expected to accomplish an assigned MET to the prescribed standards, under most conditions. This performance, however, has not been observed or demonstrated in operations or training. Units with this rating can be employed for those tasks.
The unit cannot perform an assigned MET to the prescribed standards and conditions at this time. Supporting explanations are mandatory for any “N” assessment.

14. Assessments – TYCOM Guidance
Fleet guidance on making assessments in DRRS-N:
The commander’s assessment shall not be green in MOB and Core if ..
an engineering casualty exists that limits speed or maneuverability
if onboard fuel percentage or days of provisions are less than prescribed by fleet or operational commanders
The commander’s assessment shall not be green in any MET if affected by an active Cat 3 or Cat 4 CASREP
The commander’s assessment shall not be green for any MET if a unit fails to complete the full training requirement or fails to achieve required certification for any phase of the FRTP
The commander’s assessment shall not be green for any NMET where shipboard ordnance load is less than 80% of shipfill or other requirement directed by echelon two fleet commanders

15. Assessments – TYCOM Guidance
Guidance on CASREPS:
CASREPS are specific indicators of "change in readiness status" and require updates to DRRS-N. The category of the CASREP shall never be worse than the worst mission area Affected.
For example, if a unit submits a C3 CASREP, there must be at least one MET evaluated as “Q/Qualified Yes." the qualified statement should be in the area(s) impacted by the C3 CASREP.
Listing all CASREPS in the assessment fields is not desired. Upper echelon commands have access to MFOM and can view all CASREP summaries. Keep comments focused on operational impacts to mission areas.

16. Assessments – Commander’s Remarks
The Core assessment block contains specific sections for your comments:
Overall Section: Describe the unit’s current readiness in relation to the wartime mission and ability to conduct current tasking
PESTO Sections: Describe the specific readiness issues and operational impacts
Comments should focus on current and future capability and issues
Projections on readiness changes should be based on events and not just the next DRRS-N assessment
Minimum comments should include;
Current FRTP (R+) month/phase
Next major FRTP milestone
Expected deployment date
Commander’s top readiness concerns
POC Info (SIPR and NIPR, ashore and underway, as necessary)

17. Assessments – Commander’s Remarks
PESTO Remarks
Comment on IAs and TADs that cause personnel shortages
Comment on Equipment degradations and all CAT 4 CASREPS
Comment on Supply shortages and planned on-loads
Comment on Training issues and when events will be achieved
Comment on Ordnance status and on-loads
General Remarks Tips
All comments should describe the readiness degradation, the CO’s plan to resolve it, and resources required to achieve Green
This is not a message so use sentence case
DRRS-N is about full MCO capability. Describe how current tasking effects MCO readiness
Do not use SORTS terminology in DRRS-N comments

18. Commander’s Assessments
Assessments – OARS Page
In addition to the MET assessments, the Commander shall update the OARS data.
CJCS requires the component services from their responsibility to report legacy SORTS data
USFF includes the OARS data in DRRS-N to capture legacy SORTS data
OARS transmits SORTS data along with the DRRS-N assessment and creates a SORTS report internal to the larger DRRS-S network for use at Joint Staff 1
Commander’s
Assessments 2 3
OARS = Organization and Resource Status

19. DRRS-N Ashore – OARS Data Calculations
Everyone with a DRRS-N account can view your OARS data. To update the data in the OARS page, select the Edit buttons or by click on the C Rate boxes.
Note: The guidance for completing the OARS data is contained in Section 6 of the CNAP/CNAL

20. Assessments – OARS Data Calculations
When the user selects either Edit buttons or clicks on the C rate boxes, a data entry
screen will appear. Complete the data fields required.
Report current employment via the Activity Code sets
Report deployment status using the pull-down menu
C Rates should be consistent with the commander’s assessed (DRRS-N) values

21. Assessments – OARS Data Calculations
Report the ship’s LAT/LONG when home or MODLOC when at sea
Category Level and Limitations are N/A for CNAP/CNAL units
Percent Effective is your readiness to perform your currently assigned mission (1-4)
Report Chem-Bio stats as per sections 6 of the CNAP/CNAL
Report BA/NMP/COB for all officers/enlisted in the Personnel Strength boxes

22. Reporting Rules - Frequency
Submit assessments in DRRS-N as follows:
Within 24 hours of a significant change in readiness
Within 24 hours of an unplanned change in underway status
fail to sail
hurricane sortie
surge deployment
RTP for emergent repairs
Within 30 days of the last assessment
Following completion of major FRTP milestones to include TSTA, FEP, C2X, and JTFEX
When otherwise directed
Assessments must be submitted in DRRS-N within 24 hours of a significant change in readiness. An updated assessment must be submitted within 30 days of the last assessment, even if there is no change in readiness.
Note: Your ISIC may also direct a DRRS-N assessment based on COCOM or Fleet Commander reporting requirement.

23. DRRS-N Accounts DRRS-N Ashore DRRS-N Afloat Tips (DRRS-N Afloat)
Requested via the SIPRNET (
Accounts are Managed by USFFC
At best, OPS and OPS Admin should have Commander permissions
Help Desk: (DSN 836)
DRRS-N Afloat
Primarily where you will make DRRS-N assessments
OPS ADMIN on the CVN creates accounts for all embarked units
Help Desk: /6365 (DSN 836)
Tips (DRRS-N Afloat)
Embarked units must manage their own DRRS-N reporting
The CVN only provides accounts on DRRS-N afloat for embarked units

24. DRRS-N Accounts – Permissions
Account permission levels for both DRRS-N Ashore and Afloat have the same functionality but
have different names. The table below describes the permission levels. CNAF recommends
that the CO, XO, and OPS-O all have the Commander/Releaser permission level. The CO
Has the discretion to assign any permission level to personnel in their command.
DRRS-N Ashore/Afloat Permission Levels:
Unit Role
Description
Unit Viewer /Browser
Can only view approved assessments. Cannot make changes to assessments. Cannot see the OARS page.
Unit User /Drafter
Can view and change the assessments of capabilities and NMETs, and save assessment changes, but cannot submit assessment changes.
Unit Commander/Releaser
Can view and change the assessments of capabilities and NMETs, save assessment changes, and submit assessment changes. Can also select the reporting method.
Releaser and ADMIN (DRRS-N Afloat Only)

25. CNAF Readiness Brief (CVN) - Reduced METL
Every two weeks, CNAL N00 is briefed on the readiness of all PAC and LANT CVNs in an
FRTP cycle as a means to monitor the health of the fleet. DRRS-N data and CO’s comments
are analyzed for readiness degradations by the TYCOM staff and presented to the TYCOM
leadership.

27. Transition to DRRS-S
FY 2019 NDAA Mandated Changes to Readiness Reporting:
The military services shall complete the transition to DRRS-S not later than 1 October, 2019
DRRS-S = DRRS Strategic (OSD version of DRRS)
DRRS-S Transition
Revision to the CVN METL
Capability Areas go away
Revised CVN METL has 7 METs vice 130 METs
USFF requires all Navy units to report via a reduced METL by 30 June 2019
Policy to support DRRS-S transition in work at USFF
Two messages released already
Expect transition between July - Sept 2019
DRRS-N Afloat will continue to support DRRS-S reporting for afloat units only
Expect updates to the DRRS-N Afloat software

28. DRRS-S Sample View
One Mission (Core)
CO Assessment
METL

29. Keys to Success
Unit commander gets 100% of the vote in the Commander’s assessment regardless of the PESTO pillars
The unit needs to understand their FRTP cycle and their readiness expectations
Remarks should be focused on readiness issues for your ship
Do not use SORTS terminology in your remarks
Ensure that all remarks fields are continually updated
Old remarks remain in DRRS-N until updated
Evaluate all METs, Core, and OARS data on every assessment
OARS C-Rates should be consistent with the DRRS-N MET assessments
Manage the input systems that feed DRRS-N (FLTMPS, CSMP, CV-SHARP, etc.)
TYCOM (with USFF) will mage the DRRS-S transition
Take advantage of the TYCOM experts. Help is a phone call away
