What does IMA predominantly manage?

The Integrated Maintenance Activity (IMA) predominantly manages Class B criteria because this involves the maintenance and management of ordnance and munitions systems at a level that requires adherence to specific standards and protocols defined by the Navy. Class B criteria typically pertain to the technical and operational readiness of armaments, including inspections, repair, and logistical support necessary to ensure that the munitions are safe, reliable, and effective for use. This management includes ensuring that all processes align with the established guidelines for storage, handling, and overall lifecycle management of naval munitions.

In contrast, safety audits, emergency procedures, and routine training, while essential components of overall operational readiness, are generally parts of broader safety and operational programs rather than the primary focus of IMA.
