Who is required to notify the flight line expediter of all back ordered parts in accordance with regulations?

The requirement to notify the flight line expediter of all back ordered parts is specifically placed on decentralized material support (DMS) personnel. This is because DMS personnel are responsible for managing the material and supply needs at the local level, ensuring that all necessary parts are available to support flight line operations. Their role includes tracking inventory levels and managing orders for parts that are not immediately available, allowing them to maintain communication with the flight line expediter regarding any delays or shortages.

This notification is crucial for maintaining operational efficiency in aircraft maintenance and flight readiness. By keeping the flight line expediter informed about back ordered parts, DMS personnel help to coordinate efforts and manage expectations related to equipment availability, ensuring that maintenance activities can proceed without unnecessary downtime.
