SUMMARY

Training Installation and Transfer Agreements (TITAs) define how the Navy coordinates the design, acquisition and incorporation of a training system and transfer to a schoolhouse. A properly developed agreement (1) defines facility requirements, including MILCON and special project planning, for installation of the training system; (2) identifies all associated logistics support elements; and (3) transfers training ownership responsibility from the training support agency to the TA.

The TITA is an integral part of the system acquisition process as it supports the introduction of new training systems and equipment, incorporates training system changes, and identifies sustainment requirements. Close liaison between the training support agency and Technical Assistant (TA) is key to implementing training system installation plans that meet a Ready for Training (RFT) date.
