What is the expected CTS score for a unit to successfully proceed to Phase 3?

The expected CTS (Continuous Training Score) for a unit to successfully proceed to Phase 3 is 80% or higher. This benchmark reflects the requirement for units to demonstrate a high level of proficiency and readiness in their maintenance and material management practices, as outlined in OPNAVINST 4790.1J. Achieving this score indicates that the unit has effectively utilized the 3-M Manual systems and can confidently move on to more advanced phases of training, ensuring that they are well-prepared for the responsibilities and challenges they will face.

The significance of the 80% threshold lies in its role in validating the effectiveness of training and material management processes. It sets a standard that aligns with the overall objectives of maintaining operational readiness and efficiency in the fleet. This clarity in expectations ensures that all units are accountable for their performance and readiness before advancing.
