Microelectronic Spare and Repair Part Status Analysis for the Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS)

Abstract

The IOD, SEPD, RDEC, AMCOM has the mission and function of providing microelectronic technology assessments, and producibility and supportability analyses for AMCOM systems. IOD evaluates the impacts of nonavailability of microelectronic spare and repair parts on the life cycle supportability of AMC0M systems. IOD required management and engineering support In performing microelectronic technology and availability assessments for the impact of nonavailability on the Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS). IOD provides supportability and producibility engineering support for MLRS primarily in the spare parts area. IOD also required management support for coordinating and insuring resolution of MLRS producibility and supportability problems. In order to facilitate the assessment of this system, the Systems Management and Production Laboratory at UAH was tasked to conduct an in-depth analysis as to the life cycle health of the MLRS weapon System's component parts.
