Subj: AUXDATA II UPDATE – PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)

(a) Rescue and Survival Systems Manual, COMDTINST M10470.10 (series)

1. Effective today, AUXDATA II has a new functionality to track the issuance and maintenance of issued Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). The PPE function can be accessed from the Member Record on the PPE tab. In order to utilize the PPE functions, selected Auxiliarists will need specific PPE Manager permissions to enter PPE data and manage the PPE process. These selected Auxiliarists will likely be the same people who currently track PPE issuance and maintenance per reference (a). Only District Directors of Auxiliary (DIRAUX) or Operations Training Officers (OTO) can grant PPE Manager Permissions.

2. The Office of Auxiliary and Boating Safety (CG-BSX) will work with DIRAUX offices to begin the process of training PPE Managers to enter PPE information into AUXDATA II. This effort will be a phased-in approach to ensure the PPE design is working as intended and to make improvements based on initial user feedback. If your DIRAUX office has not given you PPE Manager permissions, please be patient. This will be a significant effort for PPE Managers to learn the process and to enter all of the PPE that is already in circulation in the field. We anticipate that it will likely take between 6-12 months to get all issued PPE entered into AUXDATA II.

3. Thank you to all of the Auxiliarists and OTOs who were instrumental in the development of the AUXDATA II PPE Management functionality.

4. If you have questions, please use the Chain of Leadership and Management (COLM).

***For many reasons including the value of keeping communication lines clear and open as well as facilitating access to training and educational tools, all Auxiliarists are urged to have their own email address and to keep it updated in AUXDATA.***

*All ALAUX’s are posted on the Chief Director of Auxiliary web site located at: CHDIRAUX ALAUX

If you have a question regarding this ALAUX, please seek resolution within your Chain of Leadership and Management (COLM) including up to your servicing District Director of Auxiliary (DIRAUX). If your question still cannot be resolved after that, then please email CGAUX@uscg.mil.
