Design for Maintainers Program Plan.
Abstract
There is nothing new about the importance of problems involving the dependability of the performance of equipment; this has always been a high-priority engineering concern. Likewise, engineers and technicians have always been concerned with the problem of fixing equipment in the event it fails. In response to this problem, typically, engineering approaches have also been of prime importance. With the recent advent of today's complex equipment, however, it has become increasingly obvious that something other than the traditional engineering approach to the maintenance problem must be tried; a new approach requiring inputs from a variety of disciplines seems required. It is the goal of the present effort to initiate such a multi-discipline approach to the problem from a design-for- maintainers standpoint.
