Procedure for the Selection of Automatic Test Equipment (ATE).

Abstract

Selection of automatic test equipment (ATE) is a support function that is a part of the Integrated Logistic Support/Logistic Support Analysis (ILS/LSA) areas of platform and prime system development. All of the actions taking place in parallel to the ATE selection are included for each phase of the acquisition cycle. This enables the planners/managers to key the ATE selection actions to events in the acquisition process. Too often ILS actions in general, and ATE selection in particular, takes place later than what would be optimum. Only by the parallel development of ATE and the prime equipment, can it be assumed that the equipment will be fully effective when introduced for fleet use.
