The Effects of the Maintenance Training Improvement Program on Unit Performance

Abstract

A study was conducted to determine whether the Maintenance Training Improvement Program (MTIP) has any relation performance of the west coast F-14 and E-2 squadrons. Using correlation analysis, the MTIP completion rate was compared with operational measures such as the Full Mission Capable (FMC) rate, the number of no-defect (malfunction code A-799) maintenance actions, and the Direct Maintenance Manhours per Flight Hour (DMMH/FH). A moderate positive correlation was found between the MTIP completion rate and the FMC rate, and a moderately weak negative correlation was found between the MTIP completion rate and the number of A-799 maintenance actions. There was no correlation found between the MTIP completion rate and the DMMH/FH. These relationships have provided some insight with encouraging implications for further research to assess the existing training program.
