A Systems Engineering Based Analysis of the MH-60R Fleet Replacement Squadron Category I Syllabus as a Schedule
Abstract
The fleet replacement squadron (FRS) syllabus is analyzed using a systems-engineering-based analysis. A review of the daily flight schedules at the Helicopter Maritime Strike FRS in San Diego is conducted, and cancellation data is compiled to incorporate into the syllabus model. Concurrent with the schedule analysis, a determination of previously unaccounted for cancellation factors and associated impact to on-time syllabus completion is conducted. The syllabus is modeled as a schedule and presented in the form of a functional flow block diagram (FFBD). The FFBD allows for visual and computational review of the syllabus as a project schedule. Then, using Innoslate, a systems engineering modeling tool combining Systems Modeling Language (SysML) and discrete simulations, the Category I FRP syllabus at the FRS is analyzed as a schedule. Utilizing preplanned, in addition to observed, cancellation rates for syllabus events, results indicate that the current timeline is overly optimistic, probabilistically requiring more time to complete the training syllabus than currently allotted.
