Supmech, which is noncommutative Hamiltonian mechanics \linebreak (NHM) (developed in paper I) with two extra ingredients : positive observable valued measures (PObVMs) [which serve to connect state-induced expectation values and classical probabilities] and the `CC condition' [which stipulates that the sets of observables and pure states be mutually separating] is proposed as a universal mechanics potentially covering all physical phenomena. It facilitates development of an autonomous formalism for quantum mechanics. Quantum systems, defined algebraically as supmech Hamiltonian systems with non-supercommutative system algebras, are shown to inevitably have Hilbert space based realizations (so as to accommodate rigged Hilbert space based Dirac bra-ket formalism), generally admitting commutative superselection rules. Traditional features of quantum mechanics of finite particle systems appear naturally. A treatment of localizability much simpler and more general than the traditional one is given. Treating massive particles as localizable elementary quantum systems, the Schr $\ddot{o}$ dinger wave functions with traditional Born interpretation appear as natural objects for the description of their pure states and the Schr $\ddot{o}$ dinger equation for them is obtained without ever using a classical Hamiltonian or Lagrangian. A provisional set of axioms for the supmech program is given.Supmech, which is noncommutative Hamiltonian mechanics \linebreak (NHM) (developed in paper I) with two extra ingredients : positive observable valued measures (PObVMs) [which serve to connect state-induced expectation values and classical probabilities] and the `CC condition' [which stipulates that the sets of observables and pure states be mutually separating] is proposed as a universal mechanics potentially covering all physical phenomena.
