Who runs the RPPO program and is responsible for training and qualifying RPPOs?

• A. Supply Officer
• B. V-4 Division Officer
• C. Stock Control must train and qualify RPPOs
• D. S-1F

Answer: (C)

The responsibility for running the RPPO program and for training and qualifying RPPOs sits with Stock Control. This makes sense because RPPOs are focused on repairable items and stock accountability, so the unit tasked with maintaining inventory accuracy and control procedures should own the program. Stock Control develops the policy, provides the training, and conducts the qualification to ensure RPPOs understand the proper methods for handling repairables, recording transactions, and enforcing controls. The Supply Officer oversees overall supply readiness, but the hands-on training and qualification of RPPOs are centered in Stock Control. The other roles mentioned don’t specifically own or manage RPPO training and qualification.
