Well how about that. NPC is trying to use NSIPS to make routine orders routine.
"Navy Standard Integrated
Personnel System (NSIPS) order writing module, which will be utilized to
generate all orders authorizing permanent change of station (PCS) transfer of
members for unit moves, unit*s decommissioning, base realignment and closure
(BRAC) moves, overseas tour extension incentive program, and enlisted
separation and retirements. All other PCS orders will be written by
Commander, Navy Personnel Command (CNPC) (appropriate detailer)."
