Improving DOD Maintenance Through Better Performance Aids

Abstract

The report is concerned with the technical documentation used by maintenance personnel, and in particular job performance aids, that is, documents or devices that give precise step by step directions to perform a task or otherwise furnish the technician all the relevant information the needs in a compact form. A review is made of past research and current projects in DOD and elsewhere on maintenance aiding through innovations in format and content of maintenance documentation. Problems in evaluating this research and in implementing proven techniques are discussed. Some recommendations are made.
