1. Training: An Element of Integrated Product Support
NAVAIR 6.7.5

2. DoD System Life-Cycle
DoD Instruction 5000 describes system management life-cycle
Five distinct phases
Four system management milestone decisions (A, B, C, & Full Rate Production—FRP)
The Program Manager (PM) is the “Life-Cycle System Manager”

4. Logistics Across the System Life-Cycle
Life-Cycle Logistics (LCL) is:
Planning, development, implementation, and management of a comprehensive, affordable, and effective systems support strategy
Design the support, support the design

5. Life-Cycle Logistics 12 Integrated Product Support (IPS) elements
These elements are intended to ensure that the Life Cycle Sustainment Plan (LCSP) is complete & integrated
Design Interface is the lens through which the pillar IPS elements are viewed
Product Support Management is the process of IPS

6. Product Support Analysis (PSA)
Proven analytical process where a series of 17 activities (TA-STD-0017) are accomplished within each phase of systems acquisition (MIL-HDBK-502A)
Logistics Support Analysis (LSA) - the term previously used to describe the analytical processes that were accomplished to identify and develop the support system
When accomplished, Logistics Product Data (LPD) are identified (GEIA-STD-0007) and entered into the PSA database
PSA database enables development of LPD summaries (TA-HB ) that support acquisition
Task Summary identifies the operations and maintenance (O&M) tasks used for technical manual and training course development
Provisioning Summary identifies all of the initial spares and repair parts required to support the approved maintenance concept
Supportability Analysis - a series of five distinct engineering/logistic activities that identify design properties and assist with shaping the maintenance concept (FMECA, FTA, RCM, LORA, MTA)

8. Why PSA? PSA is a repeatable process
Follows a set of standards agreed upon by government and industry
LPD are developed by accomplishing PSA activities
LPD feed development of IPS Elements
PSA feeds development of IETMs, Supply Support Posture, SE requirements, Training Development, etc
Ensures linkage between IPS elements
Database becomes single source for development of all support resources
Consistency is maintained, traceability is provided
Lessons Learned: JPALS, TRITON, P-8A
Alignment between the Operation & Maintenance tasks and support resources
Overall cost savings
Stop paying for data numerous times
Maintain database to feed IPS elements/updates/ECPs etc.

13. Implications for Training
Training IPT must participate in Maintenance Task Analysis (MTA)
Use authoritative source of maintenance tasks—no more Job-Duty-Task-Analysis (JDTA)
Training must be conceptualized, designed, acquired, & sustained to support performance and in concert with the system/platform
So…what are key maintenance planning activities?
