Use. DA Forms 2407/2407-1 are used as maintenance requests for:
Requesting support maintenance.
Repairs beyond the unit's authorized capability or capacity.
Application of Military Work Orders (MWOs).
Fabrication or assembly of items.
Reporting work on DA-directed items under an approved sampling plan.
Initiating work requests that may become warranty claim actions.
Showing all support maintenance done on general purpose and passenger-carrying vehicles, and combat
and tactical equipment.
Requesting an estimated cost of damage (ECOD) or technical inspection to determine the
serviceability/repairability of an item prior to repair or turn-in for replacement.
General Instructions. A separate DA Form 2407 will be filled out on each item reported under AR 700-
138. A separate form will also be filled out on each component of an item reported under AR 700-138, when
submitted separate from end item. You may combine items with the same make, model, and NSN on a
single DA Form 2407 when they are not reported under AR 700-138. DA Form 2407-1 may be used when
more room is needed. Items turned in for classification will be on separate forms. Send a copy of DA Form
2408-5 (Equipment Modification Record) with the equipment to support maintenance. The organization
asking for maintenance fills out Section 1 of the DA Form 2407 and sends all copies of the form with the
equipment. The support unit fills in Block 24 and puts a local work order number on the form. Copy 1 then
goes back to the organization as a receipt for the equipment. The unit returns Copy 1 when the equipment is
fixed and ready for pickup. Disposition involves retaining Copy 1 and destroying it when the equipment is
returned to the unit.
