  1. F-18 IETM Development and ImplementationLessons Learned Presented By Denny Raitz February 10 2004

  2. Lessons Learned • Lessons Learned • Customer • Contractor • IETMs Cost • IETM Conversion Cost Example • IETMs Savings • Data Development And Sustainment Cost Savings • Data Reuse • Savings Realized in the Field

  3. Lessons Learned - Customer • Develop a Business Case to Justify IETM • Include Life Cycle Cost Analysis • Benefits Analysis • Determine Funding Source • Standard Tech Data Funding • Procurement • Sustainment • Consider Aging Aircraft Initiatives • Document Requirements • Functionality Matrix • CONOPS

  4. Lessons Learned - Customer • Create/Accept Estimating Methodology • Can Be Paper Based IF Conversion • Task-based If New Program • Get End-User Involved Early • In-Process Reviews • Functionality Requirements • Verification • Display Hardware Procurement • Identify Quantity And Replenishment Strategy • Identify Identify Funding

  5. Lessons Learned - Customer • Availability & Capability of Needed IT Infrastructure • Interface With Diagnostics Or Weapon System? • Interface With Maintenance Management System? • Training • End User • Training Organization • Verification • Fund And Staff It • Provide Resources (Equipment) • Schedule It

  6. Lessons Learned - Contractor • Planning • Schedule It • Experience Has Shown 1 Man Year Minimum (2 Persons – 6 Months) • Fund It • Funding The Planning Will Recoup Huge Benefits Later • Staff It • Part Timers Not Wanted!

  7. Lessons Learned - Contractor • Create/Accept Estimating Methodology • Can Be Paper Based IF Conversion • Task-based If New Program • Training • Technical Writers And Illustrators • Management • Engineering • Manufacturing • Training Organization

  8. Lessons Learned - Contractor • Create Process Documentation • Work Flow • Metrics • Style and Format Documentation • Style Guide Prevents “Innovative” Authoring • Data Validation Software Assists In Enforcement Of Style • Develop Versioning Techniques Early • Assists In “Backing Out” Errors • Configuration Management

  9. Lessons Learned - Contractor • Identify Utilities • Importing Software • LSA Data • Engineering Data • Metric Reporting • Non-IETM data access • PDF Files • Wiring And Schematic Viewers • Engineering Documents • Etc.

  10. IETMs Cost Too Much – Not! • “New” Weapon Systems Initial Development No More Than Developing Paper • Costs Less If Data Development And Database Population “Managed” Properly • Benefits Are In The “Out Years” Of The Life Cycle • Conversion Does Bring A Non-Recurring Cost • Business Case Should Determine Go-Ahead • Life Cycle Cost Analysis Should Identify ROI

  11. (C-130 Conversion) ROI FY 2009 (5 years out)

  12. Good Data Development Cost Savings 7 % Reduction in Initial Publication Development due to Class 4 IETM Authoring For all Organizational Level Maintenance Tasks Initial Publication Authoring Costs 1.00 0.93

  13. 1.00 0.64 Good F/A-18 E/F F/A-18 C/D Data Sustainment Cost Savings 36% Reduction in Sustainment Authoring Costs of Publications due to Class 4 IETM Authoring (Average costs over 3 years after initial release) Sustaining Publication Costs

  14. Data Reuse Total Elements 11,853 Graphics 1057 Consumables 666 Support Equip. 3226 Common Steps 85,523 Parts 21,422 Tasks

  15. 1.00 0.78 Good F/A-18 C/D F/A-18 E/F Savings Realized in the Field 22 % Reduction in Maintenance Manhours Due to Class 4 IETM and Automated Maintenance Environment Maintenance Manhours
