Conducting Integrated Logistics Overhauls for Phased Maintenance Ships Homeported in the Western Pacific with Emphasis in the USS Sterett.
Abstract
This thesis addresses the problem of conducting highly compressed Integrated Logistics Overhauls (ILOs) during four month docking selected restricted availabilities for phased maintenance program ships homeported in the Western Pacific Ocean. Current ILO policies and procedures are discussed as well as the Western Pacific ILO site capabilities and plans for the USS Sterett ILO scheduled to commence in September 1985. The salient issues surrounding the ability of Western Pacific ILO sites to accomplish highly compressed ILOs are analyzed and evaluated. Specific recommendations are provided to improve the effectiveness of the USS Sterett ILO and the capabilities of the Western Pacific sites to provide ILOs to phased maintenance program ships. The importance of the ILO should not be underestimated in that it provides a complete validation of the shipboard equipment configuration records and corresponding repair parts, technical manuals, and preventative maintenance documentation support. The effectiveness of the ILO directly affects te ship's logistics readiness effectiveness for the subsequent five years.
