REF B IS NAVADMIN 350/08, CAREER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM INTERACTIVE DETAILING TOTAL FORCE UPDATE. REF C IS NAVADMIN 229/09, CAREER TRANSITION OFFICE ESTABLISHMENT.// RMKS/1. WE HAVE WORKED TO IMPROVE PROCESSES RELATED TO TRANSITIONING FROM THE ACTIVE COMPONENT (AC) TO RESERVE COMPONENT (RC) IN ORDER TO BETTER SUPPORT A "CONTINUUM OF SERVICE" FOR BOTH OUR OFFICERS AND ENLISTED. THIS NAVADMIN ANNOUNCES A SERIES OF CONTINUUM OF SERVICE INITIATIVES WHICH IMPACT PERSONNEL AT THE END OF THEIR OBLIGATED SERVICE. THE FOLLOWING INITIATIVES HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED TO SUPPORT SEAMLESS TRANSITION BETWEEN AC AND RC: PERFORM TO SERVE (PTS) WITH/SELECTED RESERVE (SELRES) OPTION; CAREER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM INTERACTIVE DETAILING (CMS/ID) WITH/SELRES OPTION; AND THE FUNCTIONS OF THE CAREER TRANSITION OFFICE (CTO). SIGNIFICANT BENEFITS (POST 9/11 GI BILL TRANSFERABILITY, AFFILIATION BONUSES, RESERVE RETIREMENT ELIGIBILITY, ETC.) ARE AVAILABLE FOR SAILORS WHO CHOOSE TO CONTINUE THEIR NAVY CAREER IN THE DRILLING RESERVE. PTS AND CMS/ID APPLICATIONS FOR ENLISTED SAILORS DESIRING TO REMAIN IN THE AC ARE FUNCTIONALLY UNCHANGED. 2. PTS W/SELRES OPTION: PTS W/SELRES OPTION, PER REF A, BECAME FUNCTIONAL 1 OCTOBER 2009. PTS NOW INCLUDES AN OPTION TO OBTAIN A QUOTA FOR AFFILIATION WITH THE SELECTED RESERVE (SELRES) AS A DRILLING RESERVIST. THIS FUNCTIONALITY ALLOWS AC ENLISTED SAILORS, INCLUDING FULL TIME SUPPORT (FTS) PERSONNEL, TO SIMULTANEOUSLY APPLY FOR BOTH ACTIVE DUTY/FTS RE-ENLISTMENT AND SELRES ENLISTMENT QUOTAS. PTS APPLICATIONS SHOULD BE SUBMITTED 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO END OF ACTIVE OBLIGATED SERVICE (EAOS) OR EAOS WITH EXTENSION (IF APPLICABLE) TO MAXIMIZE SAILOR OPPORTUNITIES. APPLICATIONS WILL CONTINUE TO BE PROCESSED UNTIL EITHER THREE MONTHS PRIOR TO EAOS OR EXTENDED EAOS, WHICHEVER IS LATER. SAILORS WHO CURRENTLY POSSESS AN APPROVED ACTIVE DUTY/FTS PTS RE-ENLISTMENT QUOTA AND HAVE GREATER THAN THREE MONTHS REMAINING UNTIL THEIR EAOS OR EXTENDED EAOS MAY CONTINUE TO APPLY FOR A SELRES QUOTA. APPLICATIONS FOR THE ACTIVE DUTY/FTS AND SELRES ARE PROCESSED SEPARATELY AND WILL BE BASED ON CURRENT PTS SELECTION CRITERIA. APPROVAL FOR A SELRES QUOTA DOES NOT CANCEL THE AC/FTS APPROVAL, BUT DOES PROVIDE THE AC SAILOR AN ADDITIONAL OPTION AT EAOS. SAILORS DESIRING A SELRES QUOTA WILL BE PLACED INTO THE APPROPRIATE RC SELRES ZONE CATEGORY BASED ON THEIR PAY ENTRY BASE DATE (PEBD). NOTE THAT SELRES ZONES DIFFER FROM AC ZONES AND ARE AS FOLLOWS: ZONE A (18 MONTHS-8 YEARS), ZONE B (8-14 YEARS). SAILORS COMPETE FOR A SELRES QUOTA ONLY IN THE FISCAL YEAR OF THEIR EAOS OR EXTENDED EAOS IN ORDER TO MEET PLANNED ACCESSION GOALS AND SHOULD DISCUSS THE POTENTIAL IMPACT OF EAOS EXTENSIONS WITH THEIR CAREER COUNSELOR. ONCE A SAILOR IS APPROVED FOR A SELRES QUOTA, THE PTS SYSTEM ENABLES THE SAILOR TO VIEW POTENTIAL NAVY OPERATIONAL SUPPORT CENTER (NOSC) LOCATIONS (FORMERLY NAVY RESERVE CENTERS) WITHIN CMS/ID. 3. CAREER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM INTERACTIVE DETAILING (CMS/ID) WITH SELRES OPTION. A. FOR AN ACTIVE DUTY OR FTS ENLISTED SAILOR WITH AN APPROVED AC/FTS PTS QUOTA IN THEIR CURRENT OR CONVERTED (TEMPORARY) RATING, THE STANDARD APPLICATION, DETAILER SELECTION, AND AC ASSIGNMENT PROCESSES OUTLINED IN REF B WILL REMAIN UNCHANGED WITHIN CMS/ID. B. AN ACTIVE DUTY OR FTS ENLISTED SAILOR WITH AN APPROVED SELRES PTS QUOTA IN THEIR CURRENT OR CONVERTED (TEMPORARY) RATING IS ABLE TO SUBMIT A CMS/ID APPLICATION TO DRILL AT THE NOSC CLOSEST TO THE DESIRED HOME LOCATION AFTER COMPLETION OF AC ENLISTMENT. NOSCS ARE LOCATED IN FLEET CONCENTRATION AREAS, IN EVERY STATE, GUAM, AND PUERTO RICO. AVAILABLE LOCATIONS CAN BE VIEWED AND SELECTED UNDER THE NOSC TAB WITHIN CMS/ID. ONCE A MEMBER'S NOSC APPLICATION IS SUBMITTED THROUGH CMS/ID FOR SELRES TRANSITION APPROVAL, THAT INFORMATION WILL BE PASSED TO THE CAREER TRANSITION OFFICE (CTO) WHO WILL INITIATE CONTACT WITH THE MEMBER TO DISCUSS RC PROGRAMS AND BENEFITS AND FACILITATE TRANSITION TO THE RC. IF A SAILOR IS APPROVED OR CONTINUES TO APPLY FOR AN AC/FTS PTS QUOTA, THE NOSC APPLICATION IS NON-BINDING AND ONLY OPENS A DIALOGUE BETWEEN THE SAILOR AND THE CTO UNTIL THE AC/FTS PTS APPLICATION WINDOW CLOSES. AFTER THE PTS SELRES OPTION IS FINAL, THE SAILOR WILL COMPLETE REQUIRED SEPARATION PROCESSING AT THEIR LOSING COMMAND AND SERVICING PSD AND A NOSC SPONSOR WILL BE ASSIGNED VIA THE CTO FOR ADDITIONAL TRANSITION ASSISTANCE. BILLET ASSIGNMENT IN A RESERVE UNIT IS INDEPENDENT OF NOSC SELECTION AND WILL OCCUR AFTER THE SAILOR IS AFFILIATED INTO THE RC AT THEIR APPROVED NOSC. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CONCERNING CMS/ID CAN BE OBTAINED AT HTTPS WEBSITE WWW.CMSID.NAVY.MIL. 4. CAREER TRANSITION OFFICE (CTO): CTO CAPABILITY IS EXPANDING IN A SPIRAL APPROACH OVER THE NEXT 11 MONTHS, PER REF A. THE OVERALL GOALS OF CTO ARE TO PROVIDE INFORMATION TO SAILORS ON THE BENEFITS OF RESERVE AFFILIATION, ASSIST SAILOR TRANSITION BETWEEN AC AND RC, AND DECREASE TRANSITION PROCESSING TIMES AND POTENTIAL PAY INTERRUPTIONS. THIS CENTRALIZATION STREAMLINES THE TRANSITION PROCESS AND FACILITATES 72 HOUR TRANSITIONS BETWEEN COMPONENTS. A. SPIRAL ONE (OFFICER AC TO RC) AFFECTS ALL DIRECT NAVY VETERAN (NAVET) OFFICER TRANSITIONS FROM THE AC TO THE RC THAT WERE APPROVED AFTER 29 MAY 2009. NAVETS WITH A BREAK IN SERVICE OR IN THE IRR AND DIRECT COMMISSION OFFICERS WILL CONTINUE TO BE PROCESSED BY A NAVY RECRUITER. REF C DELINEATES SERVICES PROVIDED AND PROCEDURES FOR AC OFFICERS BEING PROCESSED FOR TRANSITION BY THE CTO. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT SPIRAL ONE OF THE CTO CAN BE FOUND AT THE TRANSITION (CTO) TAB ON THE NPC CAREER INFO WEBPAGE AT WWW.NPC.NAVY.MIL/CAREERINFO/TRANSITION. B. SPIRAL TWO (ENLISTED AC TO RC) AFFECTS ALL DIRECT NAVET ENLISTED TRANSITIONS FROM THE AC TO THE RC WHO ARE APPROVED THROUGH THE CMS/ID PROCESS. C. SPIRAL THREE WILL BE IMPLEMENTED NLT OCT 2010 AND IS PLANNED TO INCLUDE PROCESSING OF DEFINITE (RECALL) AND INDEFINITE RC TO AC TRANSITIONS, EXCLUDING MOBILIZATIONS. IN ADDITION, THE CTO WILL ALSO CENTRALIZE TRANSITION PROCESSING ACTIONS FOR ALL OFFICERS AND ENLISTED PERSONNEL DESIRING DIRECT AFFILIATION WITH THE RC IN A DRILLING STATUS. 5. QUESTIONS CONCERNING PTS, CMS/ID, OR CTO SHOULD BE REFERRED TO THE NPC CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER, (866)-U-ASK-NPC OR (866) 827-5672, OR EMAIL AT cscmailbox@navy.mil. THE NPC CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER IS MANNED MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY, 0700 TO 1900, CENTRAL STANDARD TIME. 6. RELEASED BY VADM MARK FERGUSON, N1.// BT #0001 NNNN
