Logistics: Condition Based Maintenance-Plus (D-2003-125)

Abstract

This audit was initiated to determine whether DoD was still achieving the maintenance savings from reliability centered maintenance that were identified in Inspector General of the Department of Defense Report No. 91-098, "Aircraft Depot Maintenance Programs," June 17, 1991. During the survey phase of this audit, we found that DoD was implementing a new maintenance concept (condition based maintenance- plus) that focuses on the actual condition of the weapon system and its components when determining maintenance requirements as opposed to time-phased or preventive maintenance procedures. Condition based maintenance-plus is one of the six initiatives of the Future Logistics Enterprise that is being implemented under the direction of the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (Logistics and Material Readiness). The objective of the Future Logistics Enterprise is to provide integrated end-to-end logistical support.
