The NCRPproduces IMPs every year, the LMCs approximately every second year and the survival food and beverage ration every ten years. There rations are used for training exercises, deployed operations or in emergency situations when the situation does not permit the use of fresh rations. The IMPs and LMCs consist of various food and non-food items packaged in an overwrap bag.
Combat rations are shelf-stable meals, snacks and supplements that are used by military personnel when they have no access to freshlyprepared food. Since combat rations have a shelf life of three (IMP and LMC) or ten years (Survival Rations) which is unusual in commercial food enterprises, extensive testing is done on all components and quality control requirements are stringent.
The NCRP is a collaboration between DND and industry. The industry carries out many activities but DND still provides procurement, quality assurance, and transportation functions
