HSI in the Air Force seari.mit.edu3 Manpower — the number and mix of personnel (military, civilian, and contractor) authorized and available to train, operate, maintain, and support each system. Personnel — the human aptitudes, skills, and knowledge, experience levels, and abilities required to operate, maintain, and support a system at the time it is fielded. Training — the instruction and resources required providing personnel with requisite knowledge, skills, and abilities to properly operate, maintain, and support a system. Environment — the conditions in and around the system and the concepts of operation that affect the human ’ s ability to function as a part of the system as well as the requirements necessary to protect the system from the environment. Safety — hazard, safety and risk analysis in system design and development to ensure that all systems, subsystems, and their interfaces operate effectively, without sustaining failures or jeopardizing the safety and health of operators, maintainers and the system mission. Occupational Health — the consideration of design features that minimize risk of injury, acute and/or chronic illness, or disability, and/or reduce job performance of personnel who operate, maintain, or support the system. Habitability — factors of living and working conditions that are necessary to sustain the morale, safety, health, and comfort of the user population that contribute directly to personnel effectiveness and mission accomplishment, and often preclude recruitment and retention problems. Survivability — the ability of a system, including its operators, maintainers and sustainers to withstand the risk of damage, injury, loss of mission capability or destruction. Human Factors Engineering — the comprehensive integration of human capabilities and limitations into systems design, to optimize human interfaces to facilitate human performance in training operation, maintenance, support and sustainment of a system.

The Pratt & Whitney F119 Engine Best practice of HSI Reliability & Maintainability emphasis from > -Air Force leadership New requirements introduced during Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) P&W F119 beat GE F120 because it demonstrated “least technical risk and lowest cost” Yankel, J. & Deskin, W. (2002). “Development of the F-22 Propulsion System.”

Over 200 studies weighed HSI features against cost, weight, and performance. Early Support Tool Involvement Tools annotated to design drawings Full-Scale Engine Mockup Full-scale engine mockups used to test reality of one-deep LRU - allowed engineers to simulate servicing parts. Held engineers accountable.

seari.mit.edu12 Development of Cost Drivers The 10 Principles of Effective HSI (from the Handbook on HSI) 1. Top-level leadership 2. Focus on human-centered design (HCD) 3. Source selection policy 4. Organizational integration of all HSI domains 5. Documentation integration into procurement process 6. Quantification of human parameters 7. HSI technology 8. Test and evaluation=assessments 9. Highly qualified practitioners 10. Education and training program (Booher, 2003) Prioritized List of Critical Elements for Successful HSI (from The Art of Successfully Applying Human Systems Integration) 1. Management and Organizational Commitment 2. User/stakeholder involvement 3. Education and awareness of all 4. HSI process ownership 5. Holistic, enabled view 6. Funding support 7. Documented and technically sound processes 8. Qualified personnel 9. Open collaborative environment 10. Practical applications based on sound human factors research (Landsburg et. al., 2008)
