PERFORMANCE-BASED LOGISTICS FOR AEROSPACE AND DEFENSE PROGRAMS

摘要

This invention relates to an automated method and system for establishing and implementing a performance-based logistics (PBL) contract. The automated system comprises a communication interface, an information module, a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) business module, and a PBL framework data processing system. The information module is operable to collect PBL contract information. The MRO business module is operable to generate a predictive maintenance plan on the product subject to the PBL contract. The PBL framework data processing system is operable to establish and evaluate metrics based on the PBL contract information and the predictive maintenance plan. The PBL framework data processing system is operable to implement the PBL contract by using the predictive maintenance plan.
