2. Requirements • Implement F3I • Guaranteed mission capability rate • Support peace and war time scenarios • USAF/Contractor forms partnership for sustainment over the system life cycle • Affordable cost to USAF

3. Implements F3I Requirements • Performance based specifications • Form, Fit, Function Interface (F3I) • ‘How to’ responsibility given to Contractor • Contractor Depot Maintenance • Helps mitigate the risk of short lived technologies • Contractor has configuration control internal to LRU • Facilitates technology insertion • Utilizes Trigger Based Item Management (TBIM) Process • Provides for trends and targets actions that provide high payoff • ‘Proactive’ rather than ‘reactive’ management Ref. PBBE Flexible Sustainment Guide https://acc.dau.mil/GetAttachment.aspx?id=19314&pname=file&lang=en-US&aid=980 -

4. Elements of PBL(Continued) • Proper O level maintainer training and technical information • Tech Pubs (plane side repair data) updated during EMD • CFR/CFI system update; deployment during OT&E • All technical information evaluated vs “as designed” • Inclusive Diagnostic System at all levels of assembly • Automated configuration management required • For tracking: • Base Aircraft LRU SRU Critical Component • Manage parts inventory • Tracking of bad actor hardware, remove when necessary PBL Implements F3I Criterion

5. 5 1 3 4 2 0 Hrs Availability: When you need it you will have it! Actual On-Aircraft Mean Repair Time (MRT)< 45 Minutes BASE SUPPLY Base X Flightline Shipping & Receiving 5 Hrs - Receives Bad LRU - Generates DIFM via CAMS Removal Defective LRU Install Good LRU - Issues Spare - Picks Up Bad LRU - Sends Bad LRU to Shipping Maint. Tech Exchanges Bad LRU for Spare 8 Hrs AMU Support Section

6. Shared Responsibility is Key to Success • Contractor - Provide adequate spares based upon MTBMA • USAF and Contractor - Minimize Mean Down Time (MDT) • USAF - 45 Minute MTTR • Contractor - 5 Hour stores replenishment time (for spares) • USAF - 8 Hours for local transportation, preparation of • maintenance action and requisition forms, • pack and ship • Technical Performance Measurands will be implemented to help manage the program, minimize MDT

7. Maintenance ConceptOrganizational Level Tasks aDTM is similar to a thumb drive Serial Numbers & BIT Matrices DTM Transfer • Remove/Replace • Failed LRU • Perform Additional • Troubleshooting Procedure • and Repair System • Perform System Verification Skill LvL 3 Technician CFRS/CFI 1) CFRS - Determine existence of fault. 2) CFI - Determine most likely cause of fault. Identify corrective action to be performed. PMA MaintainerAlways Receives Positive ActionFrom Technical Data (e.g. Next Action).

8. Proposed Process (Eliminates need for Fault Isolation Tech manual) Identify Corrective Action Required CFR / CFI Job Guide How is this Done? If “How To” instructions are not required Is the Fault Corrected? DTM Job Guide CFR/CFI System PMA CFR/CFI System Wiring Diagram on the Fly CFRS/CFI

9. Functional Requirements • Automated Fault Detection • Provided by on-aircraft system BIT and supplemented with CFRS • Accomplished via updates to WIN-95 CFRS • Automated Fault Isolation capability • Provides “POSITIVE ACTION” to maintainer • Electronic automated tool implementation includes Digital Wire Diagrams • Currently done with paper manuals today • Automated data collection • Enables collection and manipulation of data collected • Includes maintenance corrective action and parametric information

10. Advantages • CFI data base can readily be updated in 1-2 weeks time frame • Not Tech Pubs update dependent (months/years time frame for paper update) • Maintainer now gets real time data to help isolate failures • Portable Maintenance Aid (PMA) compatible • Deletes paper Fault Isolation/Wiring Diagram (FI/WD) manuals
