Reliability and Maintainability (R&M)

Abstract

This paper details an Air Force Reliability and Maintainability (R&M) study which investigated the degree to which R&M logistics analyses requirements are satisfied by the Unified Data Base (UDB) for Logistics Information, a fully automated on-line interactive logistic Support Analysis Record system. The R&M study consisted of three sequential tasks: (a) investigation and definition of requirements, (b) definition of the frequency and method of specific R&M data collection, and (c) performance of comparability analyses of data elements defined in the first task and currently in the UDB. This paper includes a detailed description of the procedures followed and results of each task and provides recommendations for incorporation into the UDB. Keywords: Availability; REMIS (Reliability and Maintainability Information System).
