MIL-STD-3007C
1. SCOPE
1.1
Purpose. This standard establishes procedures for the
development and maintenance of Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC)
and Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS) and prescribes
their use by the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Department
of Defense (DoD) defense agencies, and DoD field activities. All
DoD components are adopting the concept and practice of
sustainable design and development and the use of project rating
and scoring systems such as Leadership in Environmental and
Energy Design (LEED) and Sustainable Project Rating Tool
(SPiRiT). These and other concepts should encourage innovation
and alternatives to the traditional planning, design,
construction, and maintenance process. The UFC/UFGS criteria
program will implement the concepts of sustainable design and
development and continuous innovation into the facilities
acquisition and maintenance processes.
1.2
Applicability. UFC and UFGS provide facility
planning, design, construction, operations, and maintenance
criteria for DoD components and participating organizations. UFC
and UFGS apply to all construction, repair, and maintenance
projects.
1.2.1 Authority. This standard establishes a unified design
guidance program in accordance with House Conference Report 105-
247, dated 9 September 1997, and the tri-service Unified Design
Guidance Report to the congressional defense committees, dated
March 1998, and as directed by the Office of the Deputy Under
Secretary of Defense (DUSD) letter dated May 2001 and DoD
Directive (DODD) 4270.5 (draft dated June 2004). UFC and UFGS are
developed jointly by the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and
other defense agencies.
Existing Criteria. Where there is no UFC or UFGS,
1.3
existing criteria is still in effect and should be used until
superseded or incorporated into a UFC or UFGS.
