This document outlines an aviation maintenance methodology that takes a multi-disciplinary approach by integrating Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM), Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), and Strategic Maintenance Management (SMM). RCM uses logical analysis to determine preventative maintenance requirements. TPM involves all employees in continuous improvement efforts. SMM incorporates maintenance into long-term strategic planning. Taken together, these methods aim to improve effectiveness, reduce costs, and minimize failures across aviation maintenance programs.
This document discusses two types of maintenance packaging approaches: block packaging and equalized/phase/progressive packaging. Block packaging involves grouping all maintenance tasks into a small number of large work packages ("A", "B", "C", "D" checks) that have long ground times. It is best for fleets with many spare aircraft and a centralized maintenance base. Equalized packaging breaks the large checks into many smaller packages with approximately equal ground times of less than 8 hours. It simplifies manpower planning and maintenance scheduling for fleets with low aircraft utilization and no spare aircraft. Both approaches have advantages and disadvantages depending on the operator's fleet size, route structure, and maintenance resources.
The document discusses different types of machine maintenance. It defines maintenance as activities intended to retain or restore functionality. There are two main types of maintenance: planned and unplanned. Planned maintenance includes preventive, corrective, improvement, and predictive maintenance. The goals of maintenance are to maximize uptime and equipment life while minimizing costs. Proper maintenance is important for safety, productivity and profitability.
This document discusses different types of maintenance strategies. It defines maintenance as activities carried out to keep equipment in optimal working condition at minimum cost. Breakdown maintenance involves repair only after failure, while preventive maintenance aims to reduce failures through scheduled inspections and repairs. Predictive maintenance uses equipment monitoring and statistical analysis to predict and prevent failures. The strategies discussed range from reactive breakdown repair to proactive preventive and predictive approaches aimed at improving equipment reliability and productivity.
Corrective maintenance involves repairing equipment after it breaks down. It aims to restore normal functioning so that the failed equipment can be used again. While it has lower short-term costs than preventive maintenance, corrective maintenance results in increased long-term costs due to unexpected downtime and potential additional damage. It also generally decreases reliability over time as assets are neglected until failure occurs. Corrective maintenance is best for inexpensive, non-critical assets that are not subject to wear and require less maintenance staff.
The document discusses four main types of maintenance programs: reactive, preventive, predictive, and reliability centered maintenance. Reactive maintenance involves fixing equipment after it breaks, while preventive maintenance uses scheduled maintenance tasks. Predictive maintenance bases maintenance on equipment condition monitoring. Reliability centered maintenance takes a systematic approach to prioritize equipment and match maintenance to critical needs using predictive techniques. The document provides advantages and disadvantages of each approach. Predictive and reliability centered maintenance can provide the greatest cost savings through reduced downtime and failures.
This document discusses different types of planned maintenance including preventive, corrective, predictive, and condition-based maintenance. It provides details on the objectives, elements, and steps involved in preventive maintenance. The key steps in preventive maintenance include analyzing the maintenance system, reviewing systems, prioritizing maintenance, training staff, and implementing the maintenance plan. Predictive maintenance allows maintenance to be performed just before failure based on equipment monitoring rather than on a set schedule. Both preventive and predictive maintenance aim to reduce downtime but predictive maintenance more precisely targets maintenance needs.
The document discusses asset management programs for facilities. It outlines key phases of operations and maintenance programs including planning, initiating work like preventative maintenance, measuring key performance indicators, analyzing results, and adjusting programs based on continuous improvement. The types of maintenance covered are preventative, reactive/corrective, reliability centered, and predictive maintenance. Benefits of effective asset management programs include risk mitigation, failure avoidance, customer satisfaction, and increased reliability and equipment life. Retro-commissioning and continuous commissioning are also discussed.

Proper Asset Maintenance Improves Safety, Reliability, and ProfitabilityUSC Consulting Group
Gain firsthand knowledge of strategies, processes, and methodologies used to develop an asset maintenance program for revenue-producing assets. This information can be applied to any industry with a reliance on heavy equipment and assets.
The preventive maintenance program is developed using a guided logic approach and is task oriented rather than maintenance process oriented. This eliminates the confusion associated with the various interpretations across different industries of terms such as condition monitoring, on condition, hard time, etc. By using a task oriented concept, it is possible to see the whole maintenance program reflected for a given item. A decision logic tree is used to identify applicable maintenance tasks. Servicing and lubrication are included as part of the logic diagram as this ensures that an important task category is considered each time an item is analyzed.
Maintenance Program Content
The content of the maintenance program itself consists of two groups of tasks.
• A group of preventive maintenance tasks, which include failure-finding tasks, scheduled to be accomplished at specified intervals, or based on condition. The objective of these tasks is to identify and prevent deterioration below inherent safety and reliability levels by one or more of the following means:
o Lubrication/servicing;
o Operational/visual/automated check;
o Inspection/functional test/condition monitoring;
o Restoration;
o Discard.
It is this group of tasks, which is determined by RCM analysis, e. it comprises the RCM based preventive maintenance program.
• A group of non scheduled maintenance tasks which result from:
• Findings from the scheduled tasks accomplished at specified intervals of time or usage;
• Reports of malfunctions or indications of impending failure (including automated detection).
The objective of this second group of tasks is to maintain or restore the equipment to an acceptable condition in which it can perform its required function.
An effective program is one that schedules only those tasks necessary to meet the stated objectives. It does not schedule additional tasks that will increase maintenance costs without a corresponding increase in protection of the inherent level of reliability. Experience has clearly demonstrated that reliability decreases when inappropriate or unnecessary maintenance tasks are performed, due to increased incidence of maintainer-induced faults.

Security has been a big issue for civil aviation for decades. Airports and aircrafts are susceptible targets for terrorist attacks. The list of incidents is extensive and gets longer every year despite strict security measures.
Aviation has become the backbone of our global economy bringing people to business, tourists to vacation destinations and products to markets.
Statistically flying remains the safest mode of travelling compared to other modes of transportation. Yet significant threat continues to exist. Terrorists and criminals continue in their quest to explore new ways of disrupting air transportation and the challenge to secure airports and airline assets remain real. This calls for greater awareness of security concerns in the aviation sector.
“Protecting this system demands a high level of vigilance because a single lapse in aviation security can result in hundreds of deaths, destroy equipment worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and have immeasurable negative impacts on the economy and the public’s confidence in air travel.”
—Gerald L. Dillingham, United States General Accounting Office, in testimony before the Subcommittee on Aviation, Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, U.S. Senate, April 6, 2000.

This document from the FAA provides a forecast for aviation activity from 2011 to 2031. It predicts substantial growth, with passenger numbers increasing by 560 million and revenue passenger miles more than doubling by 2031. Air traffic operations such as tower operations and aircraft handled are also expected to rise significantly. However, there are risks to the forecast like higher than expected energy prices, a weaker economy producing lower demand, infrastructure constraints at congested airports, increased airline consolidation leading to higher fares, and potential reductions in demand due to climate change. The forecast represents a continued recovery from the impacts of the recession, but more modest growth compared to past recoveries.

1) Maintenance is defined as actions intended to retain or restore an item to a state in which it can perform its required function.
2) There are different types of maintenance including preventive maintenance, which aims to reduce failures before they occur; corrective maintenance, which repairs items after failure; and run-to-failure maintenance, which only repairs items after breakdown.
3) Attitudes toward maintenance have changed over time from seeing it as only fixing items after failure, to recognizing the benefits of preventive maintenance in reducing costs and improving availability, quality, safety and reliability of equipment.
Maintenance involves activities that retain equipment in working condition or restore it to working condition. There are several types of maintenance. Preventive maintenance involves planned activities like inspections and adjustments to prevent failures. Corrective maintenance repairs equipment after a failure to restore it. Predictive maintenance uses condition monitoring to predict failures and schedule maintenance. The objectives of maintenance include maximizing availability while minimizing costs and downtime.

3. Background
Performance of machine will inevitably deviate from specified
performance standards-leading to failures.
Driving need to minimize failures because of our dependence on
machines
Typical Aircraft Maintenance Program:
• Understand failure process involving functional and potential
failures.
Characteristics of Modern Industrial Societies:
• Dependence on high-tech machines to produce goods and
services
• Company productivity and outputs
Dependent upon the equipment’s operational quality
Various maintenance methods being implemented across several
industries (e.g. transportation, manufacturing, and mining).

4. General Maintenance (1 of 3)
Maintenance:
• Definition: “A process of ensuring that a system continually performs its
intended in level of reliability and safety” (Kinnison, 2004)
Entropy: The “Unavailable Energy”:
• Thermodynamic concept that is used to explain the reduce designed in level
of perfection of a system.
• Direct correlation between entropy and required maintenance of a system
As entropy increases the system reliability reduces dramatically, which
requires increase maintenance
Maintenance from two different perspective:
• Engineer: Primary role is the minimize entropy during system design
• Mechanic: Primary function is to execute preventive methods to minimize
the effects of entropy of the system through its life cycle.
Two Main types of Maintenance:
• Schedule Maintenance: Preventive maintenance that is executed at regular
time frames (e.g. daily, every 1000 cycles, etc…)
• Unscheduled Maintenance: Un-predictable maintenance intervals which
may require significant effort to restore the system

Pre-World War I (WW I):
• Wright Brothers reported of one the first aircraft maintenance
discrepancies from the famous Wright “Flyer”
• Manufacturing simply aircrafts
• Carefree attitude towards flight checks (pre/post flight)
During WW I:
• Early maintenance methods focused on repairing damages From
that occurred during take off and landing www.nasa.gov/.../image_feature_976.html
• Reliability and maintainability not high priority while
instituting a maintenance program
After WW II:
• Development of complex aircrafts (technology)
• Justification of the need for preventive maintenance as the
complexity of machines increased
• Development of structured schedule maintenance programs
From www.gereports.com/.../
to prolong the use of aircraft
• Unscheduled maintenance remained a significant challenge for
industry experts

8. Aviation Maintenance (2 of 2)
During 1950’s:
• Drastic change in the perception about maintenance
• Implementation of maintenance techniques viewed as critical
to not only to airlines but to the public in general
Proper maintenance inspection saves not only cost but also lives of
passengers.
• Determined previous maintenance efforts resulted in the
wasting of valuable resources
• Safety and reliability became paramount

9. Aviation Maintenance Methodology
(1 of 3)
Increasing complex systems and
subsystems in modern jetliners:
• Individual mechanics effort becomes next
to impossible
• Comprehensive team effort needed From www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic-
art/71246/...
Aviation Maintenance Programs in
1960s:
• Boeing 747 “jumbo jet” ushered in the
modern era of aviation maintenance
program
• Creation of team of subject matter experts
to formulate possible solution to address
complex maintenance problems 9
10. Aviation Maintenance Methodology
( 2 of 3)
Committee developed maintenance steering group (MSG):
• Involves several industry working groups (IWGs): structures, mechanical
systems, engines and auxiliary power plant, ect…
• Considered to be a “bottom up” approach
• Successfully applied the Boeing 747
During the 1970s industry experts modified process to develop
MSG-2:
• Created schedule maintenance programs for Lockheed 1011 and Douglas
DC-10
• MSG-2 simplifies the process to be categorized in three main areas
(components, structures, and engines)
Primary objectives of the techniques outlined in MSG-1and
MSG-2:
• Develop a schedule maintenance program to assured the maximum safety
and inherent reliability
• Provide the reliability at the lowest cost
Used logically process flow diagram: 10
• Determine the necessary steps to resolve the maintenance issues.
11. Aviation Maintenance Methodology
(3 of 3)
During the early 1980’s:
• Air Transportation Association of America (ATA) created the MSG-3 task-
oriented maintenance method for the aviation industry.
Differences between MSG-3 and MSG-2 schedule maintenance:
• MSG-3 Approach- “Top- Down” instead of the “Bottom- Up” approach in
the MSG-2
• The MSG-3 also known as the “consequence of failure” approach
• Failure analysis conducted at the “highest manageable level of the aircraft
systems instead of the component level”
United Airlines contracted to develop a more comprehensive
approach to the MSG:
• Capability to apply schedule maintenance to other types of equipments and
account for various shortcomings
• New process created comprehensive maintenance philosophy:
Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM)
RCM: used to determine the maintenance requirement of any machine
Accounts for machines operating environment
Consider this approach to be central aspect of aviation maintenance program.
11
12. Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM)
Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM):
• Systematic approach used to optimize preventive maintenance
• RCM methodology was created in the aircraft industry as a result of a
number of reliability studies concerning complex equipment.
RCM based maintenance program philosophy:
• Determines requirements for any item whose loss of function or mode of
failure could have safety consequences
• Develop preventive task to reduce the risk and failures
• Redesign equipment to change its failure consequences (if needed)
RCM logic categorizes four main types of failure of consequences:
• Safety
• Operational Costs
• Non-operation costs
• Hidden Failure consequences
12
13. Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)
( 1 of 2)
Total Productive Maintenance (TPM):
• Began in the Japanese car industry back in the 1970’s.
• Considered to be a critical link in achieving Total Quality
Control (TQC) and Just in Time (JIT) reduction
• According to premier subject matter experts (M. Seichi
Nakajima):
Defines TPM as a comprehensive productive maintenance that
requires the total participation from everyone within the company
TPM Environment:
• Focus on identifying and “preventing problems at the source”
• Creates conducive environment for managers and line
workers
• Incorporate a highly effective maintenance program that
implements the reliability-centered maintenance methodology.
13
14. Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)
(2 of 2)
Several key TPM elements include the following:
• Maximize equipment effectiveness
• Establish a in-depth preventative maintenance for the equipments entire life
span.
• Implement through various departments (i.e. engineering, maintenance, and
operations).
• Involves every single employee, from top management to workers on the
floor.
• Promotes preventive maintenance through motivation and management of
autonomous small group activities
TPM Impacts:
• Bottom-line by revitalizing and enhancing quality management approach.
• Integration with RCM
• Outcomes -improved capacity and reducing both maintenance cost and
overall operational costs (Kennedy, 1996).
Comparison to RCM:
• TPM seen as more management oriented
• RCM is oriented towards engineering level tasks
• RCM handles the preventative maintenance standard 14
• TPM establishes the overall company mindset for continuous improvement
15. Strategic Maintenance Management (SMM)
Strategic Maintenance Management (SMM):
• Focuses on the long-term strategic issues of the company
• Differs from narrow (short-term) operating context observed in the RCM
and TPM
• Forms an integral part of the management process
Two key elements of SMM methodology are the following:
• Maintenance management is a vital core business activity
Critical to business survival and success
• Effective maintenance management needs to be based on quantitative
business models
Integrate maintenance with other decisions such as production
Overall effective maintenance management involves:
• Formulating maintenance strategies
• Implementing these strategies for business success companies
Multi-Disciplinary Approach:
• Integration with both traditional TPM and RCM methodologies is possible
• Compliments existing policies by providing strategic focus and perspective
• Applied to overall company maintenance strategies with SMM
• Modern effective maintenance management program requires a multi-
15
disciplinary approach (strategic approach to maintenance)
