1 Class Standard Allowancing Joe Teti NSWC IHD Det. Earle 4 November 2003

2 Class Standard Allowancing Objectives To identify and establish a standardized list of GPETE initial outfitting requirements for like-class ships or like-operational activities to perform planned or corrective maintenance in support of prime electronic systems To provide all Naval activities, Marine Corp Air Stations, and Naval Air Stations with an adequate allowance of test equipment to perform all required functions without permitting redundant or unnecessary equipment To provide a more efficient allowancing of GPETE which will permit for a faster, more efficient implementation of GPETE standardization through modernization.

3 Class Standard Allowancing Process of Class Allowancing Review current prime system configuration of ship/activity Review current allowance and onboard test equipment inventory Calculate allowance driven by prime systems requirements –Consider remote geographical requirements for certain activities –Identify and resolve disposition of onboard inventory not driven by prime system, geographical or other supplemental requirements (ex. dedicated) Review of current standardization initiatives to assist in consolidation/removal of older models where applicable Develop a standard matrix allowance document for review and approval by activity, TYCOM, NAVAIR and NAVSEA Prepare final standardized allowance documents (SPETERL) after acceptance

4 Class Standard Allowancing Benefits Standardization of test equipment allowance requirements to support like operational activity structures - new documents not built from scratch Use of standardized models functionally supporting multiple measurement requirements can be used to reduce GPETE inventory Reduced calibration, maintenance and logistic costs due to the elimination of test equipment not required onboard Existing SPETERL data and processing methods support the establishment of class allowances using a simplified methodology without additional programming costs

5 Regional Loan pools A critical component in successful class allowancing is the establishment of Regional Loan pools to make low use but required test equipment available to the Fleet for preventative and corrective maintenance evolutions. 10 regional loan pools, 4 under cognizance of SURFLANT and 6 under SURFPAC, have been established with requisite allowance documents to provide test equipment that support long interval and infrequent maintenance requirements.
