Defense Maintenance and Repair Technology (DMART) Program. Volume 2. Appendices
Abstract
In September 1985, the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Acquisition and Logistics) charged the Director, Maintenance Policy, to establish a maintenance research and development program aimed at stemming or reversing Department of Defense's escalating maintenance burden. The Defense Maintenance and Repair Technology (DMART) Program was developed in response to that charge. The DMART Program is designed to reduce the field maintenance cost of weapons systems by exploiting advances in repair technologies and processes, modernizing maintenance facilities and equipment, improving utilization of support resources, and promoting prime equipment reliability and maintainability improvements. Its principal features include systematic identification of opportunities for field maintenance improvements, selection and funding of projects to implement those improvements, and dissemination of maintenance technology information, including the results from implemented projects. Volume I of this report presents an overview of the DMART Program; describes why such a program is needed, and identifies the steps to implement the program. Volume II provides background material and supporting documentation for the DMART Program. Keywords: Maintenance personnel, Repair technology, Productivity, Field maintenance.
