Download or read book The Impact of Reliability Improvement Warranties on Naval Aviation Maintenance at the Fleet Level written by Donald J. Shutt and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recently published DoD Acquisition Improvement Program increases the emphasis placed on using Reliability Improvement Warranties as a means to improve weapon system reliability and maintainability. Several previous studies have concentrated on RIW selection criteria, cost factors, and reliability improvement incentives. The authors believe that adequate attention has not been given to the fleet level impact of utilizing RIWs. This study reviews past and present contracts to assess these RIW impacts on the Naval Aviation community from an operational and supply point of view. The complexities of fleet level management of warranted assets, the risks posed to the contracting parties, the opinions of fleet maintenance managers, and the RIW's expected fiscal benefits, are among the items discussed.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 28 (thesis year 1 983) a total of 10,661 theses titles from 26 Canadian and 197 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 28 reports theses submitted in-1983, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

This book was released on 1999-06-01 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the similarities and differences between the Naval Aviation Maintenance Program (NAMP) and International Standards Organization (ISO) 9000 quality management systems (QMS), discusses the difference in quality management discipline under ISO 9000 and under the NAMP, and describes what must be changed in the aviation organizational maintenance sections of the NAMP to make them consistent with the ISO 9000 QMS. The NAMP is Naval aviation's overall guiding document that outlines command, administrative, and management relationships, and assigns maintenance policy and procedure responsibilities to the respective individuals for management ISO 9000 is a series of international standards establishing requirements and guidelines for maintaining an organization's quality system. An overview is provided of quality management (QM) procedures, policies, tools, and audits; the NAMP Quality Management System (QMS); the ISO 9000 QMS; and QMS implementation procedures. Next, process maps are described for QM documentation, policies, and procedures under both the NAMP and ISO 9000. Each is compared and contrasted. Then, QM training under the NAMP and ISO 9000 is described, and advantages and disadvantages of each are listed. ISO 9000 QMS implementation issues and performance metrics are discussed. Finally, recommended changes to NAMP QM procedures, processes, and policies are provided.

Download or read book Reliability Improvement Warranty RIW MID Contract Evaluation written by Oscar Markowitz and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RIW (Reliability Improvement Warranty) is considered by DOD (Department of Defense) as being in a trial phase during which the philosophies, techniques and applications could be wrung out. The Abex RIW contract, about which this report deals, innovated features of no exclusions, support, as well as early timing in the sequence of the life of an item. Thus, the report on this Abex RIW contract is meaningful in terms of evaluating RIW results against other most likely results should an otherwise normal support mode have been selected rather than RIW. The pre-contract history is provided as well as the main conditions and terms of the RIW contract itself. Each area of interest (Program, Administration, Engineering, Logistics and Economics) is reviewed and quantified from data developed for the RIW contract purposes as well as data from other Navy sources obtained for evaluation purposes. Throughout the report, results obtained within the Abex contract are compared against non-RIW alternatives as well as other experiences obtained with other equivalent engine driven hydraulic pumps supported without benefits of RIW. Conclusions to date can be made that the RIW goals anticipated were more than met and the RIW contract has, in fact, resulted in a most cost effective support alternative available to the Navy. Additionally, the RIW alternative has provided superlative support to the fleet within a Navy investment considerably less than other comparative units used in other front line Navy aircraft. The report provides considerable supportative detail and analysis to back up the above conclusions. (Author).
