Who bears the costs associated with WRM reconstitution following indirect mission support use?

The costs associated with War Reserve Material (WRM) reconstitution following indirect mission support use are typically borne by the using unit. This is because the using unit is responsible for the equipment and supplies it utilizes during its operations. When the WRM is depleted due to these uses, the unit has the fiscal responsibility to ensure that the inventory is replenished. This is aligned with the logistic principles which dictate that the entity directly using the resources is accountable for their maintenance and replenishment.

In contrast, other entities such as major commands, logistics support units, and storing commands do not typically face the direct financial consequences of reconstitution since their roles are more focused on oversight, support, or storage of logistical assets rather than direct operational utilization. Therefore, recognizing the using unit as the party that bears the costs for reconstitution emphasizes the accountability and streamlined management of resources within logistics operations.
