The purpose of this study was to enable unit maintenance analysis functions to become a more productive part of the maintenance management process. Both the USAF IG FMI on quality and the USAF Audit Agency report on Maintenance Analysis Function in Flying Units were accurate in pointing out problem areas. This study determined the underlying causes of these problem areas: selection of analysis personnel, education of assigned analysts, guidance given to the analysis functions, experience level of assigned analysts, and problems associated with data available to analysis. Based on the findings, we recommend the following: The Air Force should raise prerequisites for entry into the career field, upgrade training requirements, restructure the Logistics and Management Development Center's (LMDC) DCM course, sponsor intercommand analysis conferences, publish an analysis guide and DCM handbook, and ensure unit analysis requirements are included in the Core Automated Maintenance System (CAMS). Major air commands should reevaluate familiarization course requirements, sponsor intracommand analysis workshops, review placement of unit analysis functions, review information requirement taskings and ensure adequate training and software are provided to support future microcomputer procurements.

This report presents the results of the concept review conducted in accordance with the tasking directive (appendix C). The purpose of the review was to determine the most effective method of providing MAIT services to Active Army, Reserve, and National Guard units. The review was also to determine: the annual cost of the worldwide MAIT program; support maintenance capabilities to provide MAIT services; major command (MACOM) assessment of identified alternatives.

Remarks on some historical aspects of the structure, duties, and responsibilities of the aircraft and munitions maintenance officer career field. A description of current Air Force accession, classification and training policy is compared to projected advances in technology and changes in organizational concepts to highlight the potential mismatch in maintenance officer preparedness for the challenges of tomorrow. Several potential shortfalls are noted. Five ways to overcome the existing problems are suggested. (sdw)

Why does the Air Force need to have officers with a PhD in Aircraft Maintenance. Aside from the fact that the Chief of Staff of the Air Force thinks it's a great idea, there may be other reasons. Before we can debate the necessity of a PhD in Maintenance, the Air Force first needs to figure out what is a PhD in Maintenance. Once you receive this PhD in Maintenance, what will that do for you. What things will be expected of you that were not expected of you before. The next hurdle to navigate is to determine how to earn a PhD in Maintenance. There's not a course catalogue at 'Maintenance University' describing the academic program that will qualify you for a PhD in Maintenance.

The successful implementation of an inspection/maintenance program requires that certain people undergo training. The purpose of this report is to provide guidance to I/M program administrators on the development of training for inspectors, auditors, investigators, and mechanics. The report will review the experiences and problems encountered by currently operating I/M programs and provide recommendations as to course content and coordination of training efforts.

The National Study of the Aviation Mechanics Occupation had three distinct phases: Phase 1 identified a common core curriculum for the training of aviation mechanics; Phase 2 identified, through experimental research, ways to implement the common core curriculum utilizing current instructional techniques; Phase 3 had two parts, Part One involved 100 teachers from throughout the United States in curriculum development and in teacher training; and Part Two resurveyed 30 percent of the original companies studied in Phase 1. The resurvey was conducted to update the common core curriculum and to test a method by which the Federal Aviation Administration could continue to update the common core curriculum periodically with a minimum expenditure of funds. This report contains both the curriculum developed during Part One and the survey results obtained during Part Two of Phase 3 of the study. Chapters I through IV contain the results of the instructor workshop activities and Part Two (Chapter V) contains the findings of the resurvey and the recommendations of the National Advisory Committee.

The report summarizes key findings from research conducted by the U.S. Department of Transportation during the decade of the 1970s related to factors in automotive designs which hinder or facilitate the vehicle inspection, diagnosis, maintenance and repair. It discusses the importance of the diagnostic function within the overall automotive repair process. It concludes that engine systems, brake systems and alignment related inspection, maintenance and repair (IM&R) problems are especially influenced by current vehicle designs. It discusses accessibility issues and manufacturer incentives to design more maintainable vehicles. It contains references to 16 key documents and appendices which describe IM&R problems on specific current vehicles.
