Productivity Measurement and Enhancement in Naval Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Departments: A Study of the Methodology for Generating
Abstract
One of the key dimensions of the strength of the United States Navy is the readiness of its Naval Air Forces. Readiness is dependent. In large part, on the effectiveness of shore-based Naval Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Departments (AIMDs). The AIMDs are activities that provide repair support to shore-based aircraft squadrons In the continental United States and provide in-depth backup support for the Carrier Air Groups (CAGs) based on deployed aircraft carriers around the world. The purpose of the present study was to test the Methodology for Generating Efficiency and Effectiveness Measures (MGEEM) introduced and tested by the Air Force Human Resources Laboratory (AFHRL) of the United States Air Force in the Communication and Navigation Equipment Repair Branch of a shore-based AIMD under the Commander, Naval Air Force, United States Pacific Fleet. The intent of the research was to determine whether the use of the MGEEM increased the effectiveness of the Communication and Navigation Equipment Repair Branch of a shore-based Naval AIMD. and to determine whether there is inter-service transportability of the MGEEM by comparing the results of this study performed in the Navy with an Independently-conducted productivity study in an Air Force shop with an identical organizational mission.
