The invention is generally related to operations support systems and more specifically, to a method of and system for deployed maintenance operations for equipment or assets. Existing web-based systems support organizations may be spread over large geographies, but only insofar as each part of that organization can remain fully-connected to the central server or data centre. The system described herein, on the other hand, allows portions of the organization to operate for long periods of time without a dedicated connection, while keeping technical records accurate. The system described herein allows a customer to set up a 'deployed site', which is effectively an environment that operates as a partial copy of the master site (which contains baseline data), and is only allowed to operate on a specific subset of the assets in the system (say, a fleet of aircraft). This deployed environment has all the required configuration and transactional data to run as a standalone system until the deployment is no longer required. At that time, the deployed site can be decommissioned by transferring the assets out to other sites, deployed or not. |
