The Maintenance Performance System (MPS): A Computer-Based Management System

Abstract

The Maintenance Performance System (MPS) is a computer-based management system designed to improve the conduct and quality of maintenance training at the direct support level; it has been in operation at a FORSCOM maintenance battalion for nearly one year. An evaluation of the system suggests that MPS monitors daily maintenance activities with relative ease and accuracy. Moreover, MPS-generated skill and training information is used by shop personnel to diagnose skill deficiencies and to guide technical training of individual repairmen.
