Each year, the National Combat Ration Program produces Individual Meal Packs (IMP) that are used for training exercises, deployed operations or in emergency situations when it does not permit the use of fresh rations. The IMP consists of an average of 20 food and non-food items packaged in an overwrap bag.

The Individual Meal Pack components, including the retort pouch meals in their cardboard sleeves, are shipped to the Assembler. His task consists of inserting all the individual components, including retort pouches in their cardboard sleeves inside the overwrap. The combat ration assembly process begins in the first days of each calendar year. All combat ration component contracts state a specific delivery period to ensure timely receipt and inspection of all components. It is the component contractor's responsibility to ensure there is sufficient product to sustain the first assembly period and maintain the assembly line.

The work involved includes the production and packaging of Hot Sauce, shipment to the assembler, and replacement of all defective products.
