RMKS/1.  This NAVADMIN announces an upcoming change to reference (a)

directing reporting seniors to use specific officer summary groups

(OSGs) for active component (AC) limited duty officers (LDO) and

chief warrant officers (CWO).  The modification aligns the 6XXX and

7XXX designators into specific categories and enables a more focused

community capability for the Navy while preserving the unique

knowledge, skills, and technical abilities of the individual

competitive categories.  Changes to OSGs apply to AC LDO and CWO

only.  Reserve Component LDOs and CWOs will continue to use current

summary groups LDO Line (61XX/62XX/63XX/64XX), LDO Staff (65XX), and

CWO (7XXX).  These changes support the LDO/CWO Officer

Sustainability Initiative (OSI) with a goal to holistically review

the LDO/CWO communities ensuring the force structure of both remains

balanced.  As the OSI effort matures, promotion boards will begin

considering LDO and CWOs for promotion in new competitive categories

which mirror the revised OSGs for the FY-21 promotion plan.  This

NAVADMIN will remain in effect until the update of reference (a).

2.  Fitness reports ending on 1 October 2017 or later (block 15),

reporting seniors must:

    a.  Rank LDO ensign through captain by OSG as follows:  surface

(61XX), submarine/nuclear (62XX), aviation (63XX), general

line/staff (641X, 643X, 647X, 648X, 649X, 653X and 655X), supply

(651X) and information warfare (68XX).

    b.  Rank CWO2 through CWO5 by OSG as follows:  surface (71XX),

submarine/nuclear (72XX/740X), aviation (73XX), information warfare

(78XX), and general line/staff (741X, 748X, 749X, 751X, 752X and

753X).

3.  This change applies for fitness report purposes only.  LDOs and

CWOs will retain their current designators and continue to compete

for statutory promotion within current competitive categories.

4.  Amplifying guidance for reporting seniors is provided as

follows:

    a.  Continue adherence to upper limits on early promote and must

promote recommendations in line with reference (a).

    b.  Existing special billet subcategories will remain in effect.

    c.  Table 1-3 of reference (a) defines other characteristics

used in determining OSGs.

    d.  The use of amplifying fitness report verbiage and soft

breakouts by individual community are strongly encouraged.  All

efforts should be made to continue to document officers displaying

sustained superior performance.

5.  For additional information, contact the Navy Personnel Command

Customer Service Center at 1-866-U-ASK-NPC, or via e-mail at

uasknpc(at)navy.mil.

6.  File this NAVADMIN with reference (a).
